Looking for a contract where you can make a visible impact from day one and take ownership of a rail infrastructure framework? This is an opportunity for an experienced Senior Project Manager to lead a major Network Rail Buildings Framework across the Northwest and Central region. With a significant reactive work bank, multiple live faults, and a demanding client environment, this role requires a strong leader who can provide direction and drive delivery across an established team.

* Proven ability to lead teams and manage operational performance
* Excellent client-facing and stakeholder management skills
* Strong commercial awareness and reporting experienceRail infrastructure experience
* Ability to work autonomously and drive positive change within a challenging environment


What Makes This Opportunity Stand Out

* Opportunity to take ownership of a high-profile framework requiring immediate leadership
* Significant influence over operational strategy and performance improvement
* Long-term contract with potential for extension and future opportunities
* Fast interview process with an urgent requirement to appoint

If you're a Senior Project Manager with experience managing frameworks, reactive works, or maintenance contracts and are looking for an opportunity to make a genuine impact, get in touch for a confidential discussion.
