Senior Project Manager

Location: Shrewsbury, Shropshire
Job Type: Full Time, Permanent

About APS

All Pump Solutions (APS) is a specialist engineering contractor delivering mechanical and electrical pump station projects across the UK water, wastewater, infrastructure, and development sectors. We design, manufacture, install, commission, and maintain pumping systems for water companies, developers, contractors, and infrastructure clients. With a strong order book and ambitious growth plans, we are looking for a highly capable Senior Project Manager to lead the successful delivery of our expanding portfolio of projects.

This is an opportunity to join a growing business where you can genuinely influence how projects are delivered, develop teams, improve systems, and play a key role in the next phase of the company's growth.

The Role

Working directly alongside the Managing Director and Founder, you will play a key role in shaping project delivery, operational performance, and future growth across the business. You will take overall responsibility for the safe, profitable, and successful delivery of multiple M&E pump station projects throughout the UK.

You will provide leadership to project delivery teams, site engineers, subcontractors, and suppliers, ensuring projects are delivered safely, on programme, within budget, and to the highest quality standards. This is a hands-on leadership position that combines project management, client management, commercial awareness, and operational oversight.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the delivery of multiple mechanical and electrical installation projects from contract award through to handover.
  • Manage project programmes, resources, risks, and budgets to ensure successful outcomes.
  • Act as the primary point of contact for clients, consultants, principal contractors, and stakeholders.
  • Ensure projects are delivered safely and in accordance with company and client requirements.
  • Drive commercial performance, cost control, and margin protection across all projects.
  • Manage subcontractors, suppliers, and site teams to achieve programme and quality targets.
  • Review and approve project documentation including RAMS, construction programmes, commissioning plans, and handover packs.
  • Support CVRs, forecasting, variations, compensation events, and project reporting.
  • Mentor and develop Project Managers, Site Engineers, and operational staff.
  • Identify opportunities to improve project delivery processes, systems, and efficiencies.
  • Support business growth by contributing to tender reviews, project strategy, and operational planning.

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.
