Senior Project Manager (Semiconductor Design)
The Project Manager opportunity offers the chance to play a key role within a growing semiconductor design environment, combining project leadership with office management responsibilities. You’ll drive projects forward, support a high-performing engineering team, and help shape the operational workflow of a collaborative design office in Southampton.
About the Role
Our client specialises in advanced semiconductor technology and seeks a structured, results-driven leader to oversee engineering programmes. This role requires strong collaboration skills rather than technical expertise—you’ll coordinate with design engineers, ensure timelines are met, risks are mitigated early, and teams have the resources needed to succeed.
As the Project Manager, you’ll report to Engineering Leadership, overseeing both project delivery and management of a small Southampton office of around ten engineers.
