The Opportunity
We are hiring junior project managers to join our Programme and Project Management team to support ongoing workload and our ambitious growth plans in Birmingham and Nottingham.

The role offers opportunities to develop your skills while working closely with senior colleagues across project and programme management.

As a junior project manager you will deliver planning, controls and project management services for the planning, design, procurement and construction of building projects. You will support senior managers in day‑to‑day contract management activities – change management, early warnings, risk management, documentation, reporting, invoicing and payments – and help coordinate multi‑disciplinary teams and project meetings. You may also support business development activities and produce reports and presentations.
We are seeking professionals who can demonstrate:
* A relevant degree and membership of a relevant professional body or an interest in pursuing chartership.
* Experience in a project‑management role in the built environment and capital projects, with background in project planning and controls.
* Demonstrable project‑management knowledge, commercial awareness, communication, influencing and collaborative working skills.
* Knowledge of NEC and/or JCT contract forms.
