Project Manager
Location: Hampshire, Somerset, Devon / Hybrid (Flexible)
Position Type: Full-time, Permanent
About the Opportunity
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a proactive and autonomous Project Manager to join a fast-growing, multi-site engineering group. Operating at the forefront of precision casting, machining, and fabrication, the business works with high-spec global industries including defense, aerospace, energy, and medical performance sectors.
As the group expands, the successful candidate will play a pivotal role in driving group-wide operational alignment and leading key commercial onboarding initiatives.
Role Overview
Written with flexibility in mind, this position requires a self-starter who excels at working independently. Specific manufacturing or engineering industry background is not required — strong, structured project management fundamentals and transferable delivery experience are what truly matter.
The successful candidate will operate across two core focus areas:
- Group Integration & Standardisation: Driving the alignment of processes, operational systems, and best practices across multiple group entities to support scalable growth.
- Commercial & Business Onboarding: Managing the end-to-end commercial onboarding of new clients and integrating new revenue lines seamlessly into standard operations.
