Project Manager
Ayrshire | Hybrid Working | Travel Across Scotland
£Competitive + Benefits
Lusona is delighted to be partnering with a leading Scottish business to recruit an experienced Project Manager to support an exciting programme of refurbishment, fit-out and development projects across a multi-site estate.
This is an excellent opportunity for a commercially focused Project Manager with experience delivering multiple projects within the hospitality, leisure, retail fit-out, or shopfitting sectors. You will play a key role in managing projects from initial concept through to completion, ensuring delivery on time, within budget, and to the highest quality standards.
The Role
Reporting into the senior leadership team, you will be responsible for overseeing a portfolio of development, refurbishment and fit-out projects across Scotland. Working closely with internal stakeholders, consultants and contractors, you will manage the full project lifecycle while balancing operational requirements, commercial objectives and customer experience.
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.
