Job Description

Senior Project Manager – Placemaking & Regeneration

We’re proud to be partnering with one of the UK’s most dynamic real estate Development Managers, a delivery-led, design-savvy firm transforming high-potential urban spaces into thriving destinations across the country.

With a diverse pipeline of projects already underway from reimagined retail centres to mixed-use extra care schemes, they’re now looking to bring in a Senior Project Manager who can own the delivery of complex projects and grow into a senior leadership role over time.

This is a rare opportunity to join a business where you’re not just managing projects – you’re shaping places.

The Role

This is about turning vision into reality – and owning every detail of the journey.

You’ll be:

  • Leading the delivery of key redevelopment projects of a shopping and a growing extra care portfolio
  • Managing stakeholders ranging from pension funds and consultants to occupiers and planners
  • Taking projects from post-acquisition through to planning, construction, and PC
  • Working closely with senior leadership while gaining the autonomy to run your own show
  • Building a team around you – delivery now, leadership next.

This isn’t a project manager role – it’s broader. It’s about seeing the commercial and creative angles while getting stuck into the delivery detail.

What’s in it for you?

Total Exposure – From £1m refurbishments to £2bn masterplans, no two projects are the same. This is real breadth.

Tangible Progression – Start as a Senior Project Manager and grow into a Development Manager. The path is clear and the support is real.

Learn by Doing – This is a low-ego, high-impact environment. You’ll pick up planning, appraisals everything you need to become a 360 development individual.

Design Meets Delivery – Work on schemes that balance ROI with real placemaking – think cinemas, rooftops, and creative mixed-use spaces.

Non-Hierarchical Culture – Work directly with founders and senior DMs. No red tape. No corporate fluff.

What Do You Need to Bring?

  • Experience taking development schemes through planning and into delivery
  • Comfortable leading design teams, consultants, and contractors
  • Background in project or development management (client-side, consultancy, or agency)
  • Sector experience flexible – could be retail, residential, commercial, or care
  • Hunger to learn and grow – whether you’re a PM ready to step up or a DM who wants to broaden their skillset
  • Curious, hands-on mindset with an eye for detail and a drive to make things happen

The Package:

  • Base salary: Competitive
  • Bonus: discretionary
  • Location: London
  • Hybrid: 3 days in with 2 days out

If you want to do more than manage a process – if you want to shape places and grow a career that goes the distance – we’d love to hear from you.
