Job Description
Project Manager – £60M Student Accommodation Scheme – Elephant & Castle, London
Tier 2 Main Contractor | Permanent | Start Late 2025
A leading Tier 2 Main Contractor is seeking an experienced Project Manager to deliver a major £50–60M student accommodation project in Elephant & Castle, London. This is an exciting opportunity to join a progressive business with a strong track record of delivering complex, high-quality new-build schemes across the capital.
The Project
This landmark 27-storey student accommodation building presents a technically challenging and rewarding opportunity. The site is a tight “postage stamp” footprint, situated adjacent to a railway embankment, requiring meticulous planning and coordination. The project will involve clipping the core and bringing the frame up, demanding a strong technical understanding and proven delivery experience on similar high-rise or constrained city centre developments.
The Role
As Project Manager, you will take ownership of the project from pre-construction through to completion, ensuring delivery in line with design, programme, and quality objectives. You’ll lead a multidisciplinary team, working closely with design, commercial, and operational leads to drive progress and maintain exceptional standards throughout.
Key Responsibilities:
* Oversee all on-site operations from early works to handover.
* Manage the project team and coordinate sub-contractors to meet key programme milestones.
* Drive quality, safety, and compliance in all aspects of the build.
* Liaise with clients, consultants, and external stakeholders.
* Ensure robust documentation, reporting, and risk management procedures.
* Lead progress meetings, reporting regularly to the Project Director.
Requirements:
* Proven experience as a Project Manager delivering complex new-build schemes (£40M+).
* Strong technical knowledge, particularly with high-rise concrete frame structures.
* Experience managing projects on tight or constrained inner-city sites.
* Excellent programme management and problem-solving skills.
* Background in student accommodation, residential, or mixed-use developments preferred.
Remuneration:
* Competitive salary and benefits package (DOE)
* Long-term career progression within a growing, reputable contractor
This is a standout opportunity for a technically adept, delivery-focused Project Manager to take on a high-profile London scheme and develop within a strong Tier 2 main contracting business.
