Project Manager
Ross & Ross | Hungerford
Beautiful buildings. Interesting projects. Brilliant people.
We’re growing, and we’re looking for a Project Manager to join our residential & hotel project management consultancy.
At Ross & Ross, no two projects are quite the same. One day you might be helping bring a private client’s dream home to life; the next, you could be steering a hotel project through planning, construction and completion. Our clients expect things to be done properly — but that doesn’t mean we take ourselves too seriously!
We’re looking for someone who is commercially sharp, highly organised and genuinely interested in buildings, design and people. Someone who can keep a project on track, a contractor honest and a client feeling looked after.
What will you be doing?
You’ll be involved from the very beginning to the very end — helping projects move from an idea on paper to something people can actually walk into.
That means you’ll:
- Manage projects through the full lifecycle, from pre-planning and procurement through to completion and handover.
- Coordinate a wonderfully varied cast of characters — clients, contractors, consultants, suppliers, local authorities, colleagues and everyone else who inevitably finds their way onto a project.
- Keep a close eye on programme, cost, quality, safety and regulations, making sure nothing important slips through the cracks.
- Attend internal and external project meetings and provide clear, concise progress updates to management.
- Work directly with clients and contractors to keep projects moving and ensure the finished product is something everyone can be proud of.
- Review valuations, prepare monthly reports and undertake Employer’s Agent and Contract Administration responsibilities.
- Bring a sensible head to the commercial side of projects, spotting issues before they become expensive surprises.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Who are we looking for?
You’ll need at least three years’ project management experience, ideally within construction, residential development or a similarly relevant environment. You might also have a CIOB or RICS qualification, or another appropriate professional qualification.
More importantly, you’ll be someone who:
- Understands construction and knows their way around JCT contracts.
- Is commercially aware and comfortable with budgets, valuations and numbers.
- Can analyse a problem, work out what needs doing and — crucially — actually do something about it.
- Is confident using MS Office, particularly Excel.
- Is organised enough to keep multiple plates spinning without dropping the important ones.
- Has an eye for design and an appreciation of what makes a really good residential or commercial property.
- Communicates brilliantly with clients, contractors and colleagues alike.
- Has a can-do attitude, a positive outlook and enough curiosity to want to understand how things work.

Where will I be based?
Our office is in Hungerford, with regular travel to our projects — generally within around an hour's drive. So, if you like a mixture of office time, site visits, client conversations and seeing projects evolve in front of you, you’ll fit right in.
What’s in it for you?
The chance to work on interesting, high-quality projects for discerning private clients, alongside a team that cares about doing great work.
You’ll have plenty of responsibility, plenty of variety and the opportunity to see your work go from drawings and spreadsheets to something very tangible indeed.
Interested?
If you’re an experienced Project Manager who knows your JCT from your snagging list — and you fancy working somewhere a little less ordinary — we’d love to hear from you.
