Job Description
About the Company & The Role
A leading Design & Build commercial fit‑out specialist delivering high‑quality workplace interiors across London. Known for design excellence, technical capability, and a collaborative culture, the business delivers projects ranging from fast‑track refurbishments to complex, multi‑floor workplace transformations. With a strong pipeline and repeat‑client base, the company offers stability, autonomy, and the opportunity to lead flagship projects.
The Senior Project Manager will take full ownership of project delivery, either running multiple concurrent projects up to £4m or leading a single major project up to £15m. You’ll be the driving force behind programme, quality, commercial control, and client satisfaction — ensuring seamless coordination between design, commercial, and site operations.
This role suits a confident, technically strong, client‑facing leader who thrives in a fast‑paced D&B environment and is comfortable managing complex stakeholder groups.

- Oversee site teams, subcontractors, and suppliers to ensure safe, efficient, and high‑quality delivery.
- Act as the primary client interface, providing regular updates and maintaining strong relationships.
- Collaborate closely with design, commercial, and pre‑construction teams to ensure coordinated delivery.
- Review drawings, specifications, and technical details to identify risks, clashes, and value‑engineering opportunities.
- Maintain strict commercial control, managing variations, budgets, and cost reporting.
- Lead progress meetings, produce reports, and maintain accurate project documentation.
- Drive a positive site culture focused on safety, quality, and teamwork.
- Ensure full compliance with company procedures, CDM regulations, and H&S legislation.
- Use Procore to manage project documentation, reporting, workflows, and communication.
Skills & Experience Required
- Proven experience delivering commercial fit‑out projects within a Design & Build or main contracting environment.
- Track record managing multiple projects up to £4m or single projects up to £15m.
- Strong understanding of construction sequencing, M&E coordination, and design management.
- Excellent client‑facing skills with the ability to build trust and manage expectations.
- Strong commercial awareness and experience managing budgets, variations, and cost control.
- Proficient in Procore for project management and reporting.
- Confident decision-maker with strong leadership and communication skills.
- Ability to manage complex stakeholder groups and maintain control under pressure.
- Collaborative, solutions‑focused mindset with a commitment to high standards.
Qualifications
- SMSTS (essential)
- CSCS (Managerial level preferred)
- First Aid at Work
- Relevant construction or project management qualifications (desirable)
What’s on Offer
