Senior Project Manager | Bolton, UK

We are seeking to strengthen our project management team in the Northwest region by hiring a Senior Project Manager to work out of one of our offices in the region. We have offices in central Manchester and Bolton. The successful candidate could work out of either office to suit your convenience.

We're seeking to hire a Project Manager capable of carrying out the full remit of pre and post contract project management duties and leading concurrent, large scale, new build projects. Both projects involve the accompanying 278 agreements; therefore, candidates with experience of settling 278 agreements as part of larger projects would be advantageous, but not essential.
