Project Manager - Newbury
Salary: £60,000 - £70,000 + Package
Location: Hampshire (Projects across Hampshire, Berkshire & Oxfordshire)
Hays are working with a highly regarded regional contractor specialising in super-prime and high-end residential projects across the South. We’re recruiting for an experienced Project Manager to join their team, taking the lead on bespoke private homes typically ranging from £2 million to £8 million. This is a key hire for the business, aimed at bringing in someone with a proven track record of delivering one-off, design-led residential schemes where quality, coordination and attention to detail are critical.
About the Contractor
This contractor has built a strong reputation across Hampshire, Berkshire and Oxfordshire for delivering bespoke private residences to an exceptional standard. Their work is not volume housing; every project is carefully considered, individually designed and delivered with a clear focus on craftsmanship and finish. With a secure pipeline of work and repeat private clients, they offer long-term stability, regional projects and a professional, quality-driven environment.
About the Role
You’ll take full responsibility for the delivery of super-prime residential projects, overseeing schemes from pre-construction through to completion. Working closely with clients, consultants and a trusted subcontractor base, you’ll ensure projects are delivered safely, on programme and to the highest standard. This role suits a Project Manager who is comfortable working on single, high-spec homes, where managing detail, design coordination and client expectations is just as important as programme delivery.
Key Responsibilities
- Full project management of £2m-£8m high-end residential schemes
- Leading projects from inception through to handover
- Managing site teams, subcontractors and specialist trades
- Overseeing programme, cost control and site delivery
- Ensuring high standards of quality, health & safety and presentation
- Coordinating design, technical information and client requirements
- Acting as the main point of contact for clients and consultants
- Driving projects forward while maintaining attention to detail throughout
What We’re Looking For
- Proven experience as a Project Manager within high-end or super-prime residential
- Track record delivering bespoke projects in the £2m-£8m range
- Strong understanding of construction sequencing, finishes and quality control
- Comfortable managing clients and design teams on one-off builds
- Strong leadership, communication and organisational skills
- A detail-driven approach with pride in delivering high-quality projects
- SMSTS, CSCS and First Aid essential
Salary & Benefits
- £60,000 - £70,000 (depending on experience)
- Car allowance
- Pension
- Private healthcare (where applicable)
- Strong pipeline of secured regional work
- Opportunity to deliver high-quality, technically interesting projects
