Title: Commercial Project Manager
Location: Shoreditch, London
Working Type: Full-time, studio-based
Salary: Up to £80,000 per annum (depending on experience)
About the Role
We’re after a Project Manager who knows their numbers. Someone commercially sharp, grounded in Project Management/Quantity Surveying, and confident running multiple complex fit-out projects from start to finish.
You’ll be client-facing, detail-driven, and hands-on — the person who keeps everything running smoothly from feasibility to handover. Every project needs to land on time, on budget, and to a standard that makes everyone proud.
You’ll work alongside leading brands, contractors, and consultants, keeping the balance between design ambition, commercial control, and practical delivery.
What You’ll Do
* Lead multiple fit-out projects from feasibility to completion, keeping timelines, quality, and budgets tight.
* Carry out feasibility studies, cost plans, and risk assessments to give clients solid commercial insight.
* Manage budgets, track costs, and secure approvals, applying value engineering when it makes sense.
* Oversee tenders and negotiate contracts to ensure best value.
* Coordinate schedules and delivery milestones across teams and partners.
* Produce accurate progress reports and financial updates for clients and senior management.
* Make sure all work meets statutory, safety, and quality standards.
* Build strong, trusted relationships with clients, contractors, and consultants.
What You’ll Bring
* Proven experience as a Project Manager or Quantity Surveyor within fit-out or construction — retail, leisure, or hospitality experience required.
* Strong grasp of both contractor and client-side contracts.
* A track record of delivering high-end fit-outs across the UK.
* Excellent commercial awareness and financial management skills.
* Confident leadership, organisation, and problem-solving abilities.
* Clear communicator, comfortable engaging senior stakeholders.
* Knowledge of construction safety standards and H&S legislation (CSCS/SMSTS a plus).
* Full UK driving licence and flexibility to travel when needed.
Only applicants with the right to work in the UK will be considered.
