Description:
Project Manager (multi-site) - Offices nr St Albans - D&B - Education projects - Immediate
Most contractors hire PMs when a job lands on site. This one needs someone long before that - and right through delivery. I’m working on a D&B Project Manager role for someone who understands pre-con, client-facing delivery and occupied environment projects, managing 2–3 projects at a time from £500k–£7m. These jobs can take several years to get to site. That’s not delay. That’s the model. Brief development. Design management. Cost planning. Client buy-in. Momentum building. Then when it’s ready, it moves - like drawing back a bow — the work is in the pullback. Then delivery flies. The role:
Oversee projects from pre-con through completion
Manage 2–3 live projects at once
Office based near St Albans - 2–3 days a week (must be London/Home Counties based and able to drive)
Most projects within a few hours of the office
Update programmes weekly (SmartSheet — nothing overly bureaucratic)
Be out on the road, in front of clients, orchestrating deliveryBackgrounds considered:
Principal contractor PMs (D&B)
Construction Managers / Contracts Managers at subcontractor level looking to step up (aka specialist sectors — joinery, glass, balustrades, catering installation)
Architectural or design-led backgrounds are also favouredEducation experience a bonus. They value people with energy, initiative and a bias for action. Salary: This is a £60-75k role for the right person, and can pay PAYE, CIS or even Limited Company If you’re a PM who understands the real work starts before site does, could be worth getting in touch.
