Project Manager – Residential Construction

Salary and Package

£55,000 - £65,000 per annum, plus package

Location

Based just outside Leicester, with projects across the East Midlands

Full-time, Permanent Position

About the Company

This is an established, privately owned construction company based in Leicestershire, with over 10 years of trading experience. The business delivers new build housing, refurbishment and regeneration projects across the Midlands for public and private sector organisations. Its project experience includes residential developments, supported and extra care housing, commercial and community schemes, and refurbishment work. Projects range from smaller developments through to schemes valued at over £15 million, with current and completed work across Leicestershire, Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire and Northamptonshire.

Why Join Them

The Project Manager will join an established business with a strong workload across the East Midlands and a varied portfolio of construction projects. The company provides support throughout the project lifecycle, from concept and construction through to completion and handover, working with experienced construction teams and established subcontractors, suppliers and consultants.

The position offers genuine responsibility across projects rather than a narrow commercial or administrative remit. Current and completed schemes include new build housing, affordable homes, accessible accommodation, community buildings and refurbishment projects, providing variety in both project type and scale.

About the Role

The Project Manager will have overall responsibility for managing construction projects across the East Midlands, ensuring they are delivered safely, efficiently, on programme and to the required quality standard.

Key responsibilities will include:

Managing projects from pre-construction through to completion and handover
Developing and monitoring project programmes, ensuring key milestones are achieved
Coordinating Site Managers, subcontractors, consultants, suppliers and other project stakeholders
Managing project budgets, costs and financial performance throughout delivery
Monitoring progress and taking action where programme, cost or quality issues arise
Ensuring projects are delivered in accordance with drawings, specifications and contractual requirements
Maintaining strong communication with stakeholders throughout each project
Working closely with commercial and construction teams to resolve project issues
Reviewing procurement requirements and coordinating materials, plant and subcontractor resources
Ensuring appropriate health and safety procedures are maintained throughout project delivery
Monitoring quality and overseeing inspections, snagging and completion
Managing project documentation, progress reports and relevant records
Supporting the handover process and ensuring outstanding works are brought through to completion
Identifying risks at an early stage and putting practical measures in place to manage them

The role will cover projects across the East Midlands, with the office based just outside Leicester. Regular travel to project sites will therefore be required.

Summary

This Project Manager position provides the opportunity to take responsibility for a varied portfolio of construction projects with an established East Midlands contractor. The combination of new build, refurbishment and development work offers genuine variety, while the company's established project pipeline provides the stability of a long-term role for an experienced Project Manager.
