We’re hiring a Senior Project Manager to take full ownership of infrastructure delivery in the Liverpool region.

If you’ve led large, complex projects - and delivered them without excuses - this will interest you.

  • Live operational constraints
  • Tight commercial controls
  • High visibility with senior leadership

These are career-defining builds - not minor works.

  • Confident managing Tier 1 subcontractors
  • Comfortable in high-pressure delivery environments

What You Get

  • Competitive senior-level package
