Are you an experienced project manager with a passion for delivering high-quality healthcare estates projects?
We are recruiting a full-time Senior Capital Project Manager to lead the delivery of capital projects across the Trust, ensuring they meet key objectives and support our overall strategic plans.
You will be responsible for the design, development and delivery of complex projects across our sites from RIBA Stage 3 onwards, ensuring they are completed on time, within budget and to the highest standards.
