About TAG

TAG Catering Equipment UK has been designing, supplying, and installing commercial kitchens and bar fit-outs since 1988, working with some of the most respected names in hospitality - from independent restaurants and Michelin-starred kitchens to five-star hotels and high-profile venue operators.

We deliver full turnkey projects, from initial design through to installation and final sign-off, combining in-house design, bespoke fabrication, and a full construction and M&E capability. Projects range from £10k single-installation works to £1.5m full fit-outs.

The Role

Due to continued growth, we're looking for an experienced Project Manager to add to our project delivery team. You'll manage a complex programme of works - kitchen and bar installation, M&E, walls, floors, ceilings, and associated building works - either running several projects concurrently or leading a single large-scale project over an extended period.

Experience in catering equipment or hospitality fit-out is much preferred. We would welcome applications from the wider construction and commercial interior fit-out sectors if you have had exposure to commercial kitchens.

The Fit
