Project Manager

Consula is recruiting on behalf of a respected Birmingham employer for an experienced Project Manager to lead the delivery of key projects across the West Midlands. Our client has built a strong reputation for delivering well-run, high-quality work, and this role sits at the heart of a busy and varied project portfolio.

This is an organisation that takes project delivery seriously. You will join a team where good planning, clear communication and honest reporting are genuinely valued, and where the Project Manager is seen as the person who makes things happen.

This opportunity would suit a confident, organised Project Manager who enjoys taking ownership, bringing teams together and keeping stakeholders informed from start to finish.

Location: Birmingham

Salary: £57,000 – £59,000 per year

Employment: Permanent

The Role

• Leading projects from initiation through planning, delivery and close.

• Defining scope, objectives, timelines and resource requirements with sponsors and stakeholders.

• Managing project budgets, tracking spend and reporting on financial performance.

• Identifying, recording and managing risks, issues and dependencies.

• Coordinating cross-functional teams, suppliers and third parties across the West Midlands.

• Producing clear progress reports and presenting updates to senior stakeholders.

• Ensuring quality standards, governance and change control are followed.

• Capturing lessons learned and contributing to the continuous improvement of project delivery across the business.

A Typical Day

You will start most days reviewing progress against plan and agreeing priorities with your team. From there, your time splits between the people side of the role, keeping teams motivated and unblocking issues, and the governance side, keeping budgets, risks and reports in good order. You will spend time with sponsors and senior stakeholders, and you will be out and about across the region when projects need you on site. It is a hands-on role where you will see the direct results of your work.

About You

• Proven experience managing projects of varying size and complexity.

• Strong planning, organisation and prioritisation skills.

• Confident stakeholder management and excellent communication skills.

• Experience managing budgets and delivering against agreed milestones.

• A calm, solutions-focused approach under pressure, with a genuine pride in delivering well.

What You Can Expect

• A permanent position with a respected organisation that values its people.

• Opportunities to lead meaningful projects and develop your career.

• A supportive, collaborative team culture that recognises results.

• 28 days' annual leave, including bank holidays.

• A competitive benefits package, discussed in full at interview stage.
