Job Description
If you’re already running engineering projects but feel like you’re constantly chasing updates, firefighting delivery issues, or carrying the responsibility without the support, this could be a better setup.
This role offers something a lot of Project Managers are missing. A structured environment, clear ownership, and a business where projects are properly supported rather than patched together.
You’ll be joining a growing engineering company delivering complex mechanical systems into industrial environments across the UK. The work is technically detailed, customer-facing and properly project-led.
Why this role is worth considering
- This is not a chaotic delivery environment.
- Projects are clearly defined and handed over properly
- Engineering and project teams work closely together
- There is a steady pipeline of technically interesting work
- You have the autonomy to run your projects without constant firefighting
The office itself is modern, open and well set up, with a genuinely friendly and supportive team. It’s a stable environment where people stay.
There is also exposure to a wider international group, which adds another dimension to
the role.
What you’ll be doing
You’ll take full ownership of projects from contract handover through to final delivery.
That includes:
- Managing projects end to end across engineering, procurement and delivery
- Acting as the main point of contact for customers and suppliers
- Building and managing project plans, timelines and resources
- Running project reviews and reporting progress internally
- Managing risk, changes and delivery challenges
- Working closely with design and engineering teams to keep projects moving
What they’re looking for
This role suits someone already operating as a Project Manager in an engineering environment.
- Mechanical or industrial engineering background
- Experience delivering projects from start to finish
- Comfortable managing customers, suppliers and internal teams
- Able to plan, organise and drive delivery
- Confident taking ownership and making decisions
This isn’t aimed at someone looking to step up. You’ll need to be comfortable already owning projects.
What's on offer
- Salary up to £55,000
- 5% matched pension
- Employee Assistance Programme
- Modern working environment with a strong team culture
- Structured 37.5-hour week (Monday to Friday)
- Flexibility on start/finish times, with the ability to bank hours and finish earlier on a Friday
Alongside that, you get something harder to find. A role where project management is taken seriously and delivery is properly supported.
