End-to-end project delivery
Design coordination
Manufacturing processes
On-site installation
Not just someone who manages schedules.
Why This Role Is Different
The Specialist Group delivers complex joinery fit-out projects that move from concept design through manufacturing and onto precise onsite installation.
This role sits at the centre of that entire process.
You won't just track project timelines.
You'll influence:
End-to-end project delivery
Manufacturing coordination and quality control
Design development and specification alignment
Onsite installation and programme management

Experience in joinery fit-out or construction project delivery
A strong understanding of design, manufacturing, and installation processes

The ability to manage multiple moving parts in a fast-paced environment
If you've worked as:
A Project Manager in joinery or fit-out
A Design Manager looking to move into full project ownership
A Site Manager ready to step into project leadership
You'll likely feel at home here.
What You'll Be Accountable For
This role carries responsibility across the full project lifecycle.
You'll be responsible for:
Project delivery from design through to installation
Coordinating design teams to meet project specifications
Managing manufacturing schedules and quality control
Leading onsite installation teams
Maintaining strong client communication
Managing project budgets and timelines
Identifying and mitigating delivery risks
Providing clear reporting and stakeholder updates
This is a delivery leadership role - not just a coordination function.
Culture & Environment
Collaborative project teams across design, manufacturing, and installation
High-quality specialist joinery projects
Fast-paced and delivery-focused environment
Strong teamwork and communication across departments
A business that values ownership and accountability
Who This Is Perfect For
You might currently be:
A Project Manager in joinery or fit-out looking for new challenges
A Design Manager ready to step into full project ownership
A Site Manager with strong technical knowledge wanting to move into project management
Someone who thrives when technical detail meets project leadership
