Job Description
The Business
Our client is a highly regarded, privately owned engineering and manufacturing business delivering complex, high-profile projects across international markets. Working at the intersection of engineering, automation, manufacturing and installation, the organisation is trusted to deliver solutions that few others can achieve.
With a collaborative, people-focused culture and a flat organisational structure, the business has built a strong reputation for innovation, teamwork and long-term employee retention. Every project is multidisciplinary, technically challenging and highly visible.
The Opportunity
As Senior Project Manager, you will take ownership of the delivery of complex, fast-paced engineering projects, acting as a key leader across project teams. The work may span architectural solutions, structural steelwork and bespoke machinery, requiring you to coordinate multidisciplinary input from concept through manufacture and delivery.
You will play a pivotal role in ensuring projects are delivered safely, on time and within budget, whilst maintaining strong relationships with customers, suppliers and internal stakeholders. Applying a practical understanding of manufacturing processes, you will identify opportunities to streamline activities, run workstreams in parallel and improve overall project delivery performance.
This is an opportunity to join a dynamic, agile and delivery-focused environment working on unique and technically demanding projects.
What We Are Looking For
We are seeking an experienced Senior Project Manager with a proven track record of delivering complex engineering projects in low-volume, high-value environments. Experience may have been gained within engineering, manufacturing, capital equipment, structural steelwork, architectural solutions or bespoke machinery projects. You will also understand how to manufacture efficiently to deliver in tight time frames.
Key attributes include:
- Proven experience delivering complex engineering projects involving multiple stakeholders and demanding timescales.
- Strong understanding of manufacturing processes and the ability to optimise project delivery through efficient planning and execution.
- Experience leading multidisciplinary and cross-functional teams across engineering and manufacturing disciplines.
- Strong commercial awareness, including budgeting, risk management and project costing.
- Hands-on, delivery-focused approach with the agility to adapt to changing customer requirements and project priorities.
Why This Role?
This is a rare opportunity to lead complex, high-profile engineering projects that few organisations have the capability to deliver. You will enjoy genuine variety, significant autonomy and the chance to work across bespoke manufacturing, engineering and installation environments where no two projects are the same. For an ambitious project professional, the role offers the opportunity to make a visible impact, influence how projects are delivered and build a long-term career within a collaborative, innovative and growing business.
