Construction Manager

At KONE, our mission is to improve the flow of urban life. As a global leader in the lift and escalator industry, KONE provides lifts, escalators and automatic doors, as well as solutions for maintenance and modernisation to add value to buildings throughout their life cycle. Through more effective People Flow®, we make people's journeys safe, convenient and reliable in taller, smarter buildings.

Due to continued growth and exciting projects, KONE is looking for a Construction Manager to join our Lift Installation team. This role will cover South Manchester, Liverpool and North Wales.

As a Construction Manager, you will play a pivotal role in ensuring the safe, efficient and high-quality delivery of installation projects. Through predictive planning, proactive site management and standardised ways of working, you will lead and develop installation teams to achieve operational excellence.

Key Accountabilities

  • Maintain accurate schedules for material deliveries, installation activities and project handovers, ensuring site readiness and timely resolution of non-conformities.
  • Ensure full compliance with all health, safety and environmental requirements, promoting a safe working environment for employees, subcontractors and customers.
  • Plan and coordinate installation resources, logistics and workforce requirements to optimise efficiency and deliver projects in line with customer commitments.
  • Provide clear direction to installation teams, setting expectations, monitoring progress and maintaining regular communication to achieve agreed objectives.
  • Lead, coach and develop team members by identifying training needs, recognising good performance and driving continuous improvement.
  • Conduct regular site visits, safety audits and handovers, while effectively managing installation costs and supporting project profitability.
  • Drive customer satisfaction through proactive communication and the delivery of safe, high-quality installations that meet scope, schedule and budget requirements.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
