Senior Project Manager

Recruit Build is working with a dynamic and growing construction and property consultancy in Leeds who are looking to appoint a Senior Project Manager / Associate to play a key role in leading and developing their Project Management team.
This is much more than simply another Senior PM role.
The successful person will become a key member of the senior leadership team, combining responsibility for the wider PM team with their own client-facing project delivery.
The Business
This is a fast-paced, entrepreneurial consultancy led by two highly experienced directors. They operate with a close-knit team but punch well above their weight, delivering projects and programmes for some of the UK’s best-known organisations.
Their work spans retail, commercial, industrial & logistics, healthcare, residential, leisure and community projects, ranging from refurbishment schemes through to major multi-million-pound developments and national programmes.
The Role
* As Senior Project Manager / Associate, you will:
* Lead and support the Project Management team.
* Maintain high standards of project delivery and quality.
* Mentor and develop other Project Managers.
* Manage your own portfolio of client projects from inception through to completion.
* Build and maintain strong relationships with key clients.
* Lead consultant, contractor and stakeholder teams.
* Oversee programme, risk, procurement and project delivery.
* Work closely with the Directors as the business continues to grow.
* Play an active role within the wider senior leadership team.
The Person
We are looking for an experienced construction Project Manager who has built their career within either a construction/property consultancy or a building contractor.
You will ideally have:
* Significant experience delivering construction projects.
* A strong understanding of the full project lifecycle.
* Formal Project Management training and relevant professional qualifications.
* Strong client-facing and stakeholder-management skills.
* Experience managing, mentoring or developing other Project Managers.
* Good commercial awareness and knowledge of contracts, procurement, programme and risk.
* The confidence and credibility to operate at Associate and senior leadership level.
The Opportunity
* For the right person, this offers genuine scope to make the role their own.
* You will be joining an ambitious business where decisions can be made quickly, good people are given responsibility and you will have direct access to the Directors.
* As the consultancy continues to grow, there is excellent longer-term career potential for someone who wants to play a meaningful part in that growth and develop their position within the business.
* Salary up to £70,000 + car allowance + benefits package.
* Based from Leeds with projects throughout the UK.
