Project Manager (Mechanical & Electrical) – Future Head of Projects
East London (base – 10 mins from Central line station) – work across London and surrounding areas.
Fantastic earning potential.
Deliver a difficult project – Keep the client happy – Make money – Get given another project.
An established engineering‑led contractor (£14m+ turnover) is looking for someone to build and eventually lead their own business unit within the wider company. You will inherit a number of existing clients, live projects and opportunities to get you started. The long‑term vision is to develop a profitable business unit, build client relationships, generate opportunities and eventually recruit and lead Project Managers within your own team.
What we’re looking for
- Started life as an engineer before moving into management
- Understands both project delivery and commercial performance
- Has experience with end users, FM providers or multi‑site portfolios
- Can build relationships as comfortably as they manage programmes
- Has a network they can leverage
- Wants more influence than their current organisation can offer
This role is not a sales or delivery position, but a business‑builder role with the backing of an established company, existing work, marketing support, operational infrastructure and leadership support.
Ideal for a Senior PM, Senior Contracts Manager or Operations Manager who believes they can grow beyond merely delivering the next project.
Remuneration
Salary is negotiable (mid‑nineties), with a meaningful bonus that is built in and not discretionary.
Advantages
- Competitive earning potential
- Established client base and project portfolio
- Marketing and operational support
- Leadership development
We are an equal opportunities employer and welcome applications from all backgrounds.
