We are seeking an experienced Senior Project/Programme Manager with strong construction sector experience and demonstrable NEC Project Manager capability to join our team. The successful candidate must bring a high level of project management expertise, including accredited NEC Project Manager experience and qualification, and be confident delivering construction projects autonomously while leading and supporting team members.
This hybrid role will support day-to-day project operations and require regular engagement with internal teams, clients, contractors, consultants, and external stakeholders.

- Gather and interpret project metrics, implement corrective actions to maintain progress and budget control, and provide practical solutions to complex delivery, contractual, and stakeholder challenges.
