Job Description:
Kabannas is a dynamic and rapidly expanding Hybrid Hotel group with a mission to redefine urban hospitality and is targeting €100m+ in acquisitions of assets across Europe. With 4 locations live and plans to grow to 15 across the UK and major European cities over the next 4 years, we specialise in acquiring, developing, and operating flexible hotel concepts in vibrant urban settings. Our projects range from refurbishments of existing hotels to adaptive reuse of office buildings into stylish, multifunctional hybrid hotels.
As Senior Project Manager, you will support the successful delivery of our hotel developments from post-acquisition through to the start of the contractor tender process. Working closely with the Acquisition and Construction Directors, you will manage project timelines, oversee pre-construction processes across RIBA Stages 1–4/5, and support coordinating design teams. You’ll also play a supporting role during acquisition phases, assisting the Head of Acquisitions with technical due diligence. This role is ideal for someone with project management or development manager experience in hospitality, student, or mixed-use development projects who thrives in a fast-paced, design-led environment.
Role Overview
An exciting opportunity has arisen to join our development team and be involved in a wide range of refurbishment and new build projects across the development life cycle, gaining hands-on experience in innovative hybrid hotel developments in Europe and the UK.
Suitable candidates will have strong project management experience, as the role involves managing budgets, coordinating teams, and ensuring projects meet contractual and regulatory requirements.
Due to growth and activity in the current pipeline, we require a Senior Project Manager to work within the small management team and collaborate with design, commercial, and construction teams to ensure successful, on-time, and within-budget project delivery.
Additionally, this will involve regular reporting to an executive team and significant interface with project stakeholders and partners.
The Role Involves:
* Overseeing developments from a project management perspective at various stages of the development cycle, from early concept, acquisition, planning, design, procurement, to delivery and handover.
* Collaborating with company teams to develop and manage project plans, schedules, specifications, and budgets.
* Implementing rigorous control of cost, quality, change management, and programme by using project tools, employer & construction standards, and documentation to prevent overruns.
* Preparing project progress reports, consolidating contractor and consultant reports, and issuing updates at all stages from pre-acquisition to construction.
* Proactively managing projects, identifying key risks, and managing budgets or funding.
* Working with internal teams and partners to select project advisers and consultants.
* Supporting initial technical site feasibility studies, identifying development opportunities and constraints.
* Managing planning consents, discharging planning conditions, and working with design teams to prepare projects for construction.
* Identifying and mitigating bottlenecks in design and construction processes and recommending strategies.
* Working with internal teams to transition completed developments to operational management.
* Supporting procurement strategies.
