We’re looking for a hands-on Project Manager to join our team and lead a mix of tactical improvements and strategic transformation work across a key property-focused contract.
This is a great opportunity to step into a role where you’ll own delivery, drive change, and make a visible impact quickly .

What We’re Looking For
* Proven experience as a Project Manager in property, housing, or real estate
* Strong problem solver who can take ownership and “get things done”
* Comfortable doing light BA work (process mapping, identifying gaps)
* Experience working across operational teams and stakeholders
* Ability to work independently without a large support structure
Nice to Have
* Experience with:
* Property or housing management systems
* Local authorities, housing associations, or lettings businesses
* Exposure to Microsoft Dynamics or similar platforms
* Background in systems or transformation projects
Working Style
* Hybrid: approx. 2 days per week in Cheltenham
