Are you a hands-on trade pro who's ready to step slightly "off the tools" - without losing the practical side of the job?
We're a busy kitchen showroom looking for a practical, organised Project Manager / Installations Coordinatorto bridge the gap between the showroom and the on-site contractors (plumbers, electricians, fitters, etc.).
If you've ever been a kitchen fitter (ideal), carpenter/joiner, site supervisor, or you've run jobs on site and know how installationsreallywork, you'll feel right at home.
The role
You'll take day-to-day job logistics off the owners' plates - keeping installs moving, solving problems quickly, and making sure customers and contractors have what they need. This is a hybrid role: part coordination/admin, part practical on-site support (light fitting/snagging and problem solving).
What you'll be doing
* Managing multiple kitchen installation projects from sign-off to completion
* Coordinating trades and schedules (fitters, plumbers, electricians, decorators, delivery teams)
* Being the "go-to" person for day-to-day site questions and problem solving
* Visiting sites to check progress, resolve snags, and keep standards high
* Doing light fitting/remedial taskswhere appropriate (e.g., minor adjustments, basic fixes, snagging)
* Ordering/reordering parts and materials, arranging deliveries, and delivering replacement partswhen needed
* Keeping customers updated and handling issues calmly and professionally
* Maintaining job notes, timelines, and basic admin (email, spreadsheets, job sheets)
Who this suits
This is perfect for someone who:
* Has worked in kitchen fitting / installations / joinery / construction
* Can confidently talk to trades and understands sequencing (first fix/second fix, tiling, electrics, plumbing, finishing)
* Is organised enough to run schedules, chase updates, and keep jobs on track
* Still enjoys being practical - and can handle minor fixes without fuss
What we're looking for (must-have)
* Trades/site background(kitchen fitting experience is a big advantage)
* Comfortable using hand/power tools and doing minor remedial work when needed
* Strong coordination skills: scheduling, prioritising, chasing actions, attention to detail
* Confident communicator with customers and contractors
* Full UK driving licence (and happy to be on the road between showroom/sites)
* Basic IT/admin ability (email, spreadsheets, job tracking)
Nice-to-have
* Experience managing multiple installs at once
* Knowledge of kitchen brands/components, worktops, appliances, and common fitting issues
* Experience snagging and quality checking
* Previous role as site supervisor, installation manager, or project coordinator
What you'll get
* A key role in a growing kitchen business -real ownership and influence
* Variety: showroom, site visits, problem solving, coordination
* A team that values practical experience and common sense
* Salary:£40000 (DOE) + £ allowance/bonus if applicable
* Hours:Mon-Fri, 8:00-17:00
* Location:Showroom town/area + local site travel
