Our lovely client:
This is an incredible opportunity to land a Development/Project Manager position to work with a super prime boutique development company and support delivery across its’ portfolio of live projects. The role sits centrally rather than on a single project, giving early exposure to how multiple workstreams are planned, tracked, and reported at once.
Based in their beautiful light and modern open plan offices in old street, you will be involved in stakeholder meetings across projects which will require travel across the UK and be given the opportunity to travel overseas occasionally (you need a driving license and passport!)The team are absolutely at the top of their game, being highly experienced and technically capable but very warm and welcoming, please leave egos at the door!
This is a non- corporate, highly rewarding and creative space in which to work, and will suit individuals who do not need ridged structure and processes around them in order to succeed.
You:
The ideal person will have a very good grounding in construction client side project management (circa 3-5 years’ experience) ideally with sector project experience in super prime residential, luxury hotels or commercial and heritage and listed buildings.
You may be currently working for a top project management consultancy (not necessarily a big one however) or perhaps another very high end developer and looking for that rare chance to move to a client side role in an autonomous, creative team.
You will be highly self-motivated, efficient, artistic and intuitive, highly discrete and demonstrate the level of articulation and communication skills needed to operate in this environment, you will be managing subconsultants, stakeholders, end users and reporting upwards and outwards daily.
Being an agile thinker, AI literate, excited by new ideas, projects or challenges, this role presents a rare opportunity for someone to step out of the mould and be surrounded by inspiring people and a stimulating high energy environment, this is for someone who will in time be able to continue to make the role their own, as the business matures.
Day to day responsibilities will of course include standard development project management duties listed below, but expect the unexpected, every day will be exciting and different - no boredom here I can assure you!
Scheduling, maintaining trackers and registers, reporting status, risks and actions current, flag delays and issues to the relevant DMPrepare and format client- and internal-facing documents — reports, meeting minutes, and progress updates, Support procurement administration: invoicing, contracts managementCoordinate and chair site visits across the portfolio, including UK-wide and occasional international trips, liaise with subcontractors, suppliers, and client teams to confirm dates, deliverables, and outstanding items.
