Clear progression to Senior PM

A growing construction contractor delivering large-scale refurbishment works across MOD and housing association properties is looking to appoint a Project Manager to oversee live sites in Woolwich.

This is a hands-on, site-based role. We are looking for someone comfortable being on the ground, solving problems in real time and driving delivery - not a desk-based project manager.

You will take ownership of programmes, coordinate with site managers, and ensure projects stay on track, on budget and compliant.

The Role

  • Manage and control project programmes
  • Work closely with Site Managers to plan daily and weekly outputs
  • Ensure labour, materials and resources are correctly allocated
  • Set clear expectations on what needs to be achieved each day
  • Monitor progress and keep works on schedule
  • Identify delays early and implement recovery plans
  • Maintain oversight of costs, timelines and resource planning
  • Ensure projects meet compliance and quality standards
  • Work closely with senior leadership on delivery and reporting

This role is delivery-focused and requires someone confident leading from the front on active construction sites.

What Were Looking For

  • Several years experience as a Construction Project Manager
  • Strong understanding of site operations and programme management
  • Commercial awareness - able to understand budgets, costs and labour planning
  • Confident working with Site Managers and subcontractors
  • Ability to problem solve and make decisions quickly
  • Strong organisational and leadership skills
  • CSCS card
  • Full UK driving licence
  • Able to pass a DBS check

Whats On Offer

  • £45,000 salary
  • Company vehicle
  • Long-term secured contract pipeline
  • Clear progression route to Senior Project Manager
  • Opportunity to grow with a rapidly expanding contractor

This is an excellent opportunity for a driven Project Manager who wants real responsibility, strong career progression and the chance to play a key role in a growing business.
