Senior Project Manager
Job Posted: 10 hours ago
Salary: £ 55,000 - 65,000 / Annum
Job Type: Permanent
Location: Manchester, Greater Manchester
Expire in: a month
Job Description
A rare and career-defining opportunity has arisen for an experienced Senior Project Manager to play a leading role on one of the most significant public sector programmes currently underway - a £110 million+ Blue Light masterplan.
This flagship programme comprises twelve buildings delivered within a coordinated, campus-style redevelopment, including a mix of new builds, refurbishments and modernisation schemes. The scale, technical complexity and community impact of this multi-phase framework make it an exceptional opportunity for an ambitious Senior PM looking to step up to larger, more complex programmes.
You’ll be joining a respected, forward-thinking multidisciplinary consultancy known for its collaborative culture, innovative delivery methods and strong public-sector reputation. This role offers excellent development potential, with clear pathways toward Associate Director.
Why This Role Stands Out
*
Lead major workstreams within a £110m+ multi-building public sector programme
*
Contribute to a high-profile redevelopment with significant regional impact
*
Work in a consultancy that champions progression, innovation and autonomy
*
Gain exposure to complex, multi-stakeholder and politically sensitive environments
*
A standout programme that will significantly elevate your CV and career trajectory
Key Responsibilities
As a Senior Project Manager, you will take leadership responsibility across key elements of the masterplan:
*
Lead the delivery of multiple building projects within the wider programme
*
Oversee all stages from inception, business case and design through to construction and handover
*
Manage stakeholder engagement across clients, consultants, contractors and end-user groups
*
Ensure delivery meets programme, budget, quality and compliance expectations
*
Lead NEC3/4 or JCT contract administration, including change control and compensation events
*
Manage risk, reporting, governance and programme controls across your workstreams
*
Provide guidance and support to Project Managers, Assistant PMs, and internal teams
*
Champion best practice and contribute to continuous improvement across the consultancy
Ideal Candidate Profile
The successful candidate will bring:
*
Strong experience delivering multi-building, complex or large-scale construction projects
*
Solid working knowledge of NEC3/4 contracts
*
Proven ability to manage complex public sector programmes or frameworks
*
Excellent communication, leadership and stakeholder management skills
*
Professional qualification such as MRICS, MAPM, MCIOB, or equivalent (or working towards)
*
A proactive, solutions-driven and collaborative approach
*
The ambition to progress toward an Associate Director role
What’s On Offer
*
Competitive salary + extensive benefits package
*
Hybrid working to support flexibility and work–life balance
*
The opportunity to lead key elements of one of the UK’s highest-profile public sector programmes
*
Clear career progression routes within a growing consultancy
*
A supportive, collaborative culture that values innovation and professional development
