* Monitor project performance using KPIs, resource plans, and cost management systems
* Support, guide and mentor junior project managers and design managers
* Ensure compliance with contractual, legal, and quality management procedures
What You’ll Bring

* Background in design management or project management within a design-led environment
* Strong understanding of technical interfaces across civil, structural, MEP and other disciplines
* Excellent leadership, problem-solving, and stakeholder management skills
* Sound commercial awareness with experience in contract administration (JCT/NEC)
* Ability to manage project programmes, deliverables, and team coordination with confidence
* Degree in Engineering, Architecture, Construction Management, or similar
* Chartered or working towards chartership (e.g., APM, ICE, CIOB, RIBA, etc.)
* Able to obtain and maintain UK Security Clearance (SC level)
* Experience in managing multiple concurrent projects or frameworks
* Familiarity with platforms like Viewpoint, MS Project, or Primavera
* Understanding of BIM Level 2 workflows and sustainability/ESG considerations
* Exposure to secure or classified project environments
Why Join BakerHicks?
* Be part of high-impact infrastructure projects that shape national capability and mobility
* Join a collaborative, people-first consultancy where your voice and leadership matter
* Take ownership: at BakerHicks, project managers are empowered to lead, not just support
