Role Description
We’re looking for an experienced and driven Project Manager to lead the delivery of fibre build projects in a fast-paced, growing business. This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys taking ownership, solving problems, and helping shape the way projects are delivered as the company continues to scale.
Responsibilities
* Lead end-to-end delivery of fibre build projects, including FTTH/FTTP network deployments, across multiple live workstreams.
* Oversee civils, cabling, splicing, testing, and installation activities to keep projects moving safely and efficiently.
* Coordinate subcontractors, field teams, designers, surveyors, and internal stakeholders to ensure aligned delivery.
* Develop and maintain practical project plans, delivery schedules, milestone tracking, and site progress updates.
* Monitor daily and weekly progress, take corrective action where required, and ensure delivery remains on time, within scope, and within budget.
* Identify and manage risks, issues, dependencies, constraints, scope changes, and project variations in real time.
* Act as the key point of contact for operational delivery matters with internal teams and external stakeholders.
* Support buildability discussions with design and engineering teams to help achieve efficient, practical delivery.
* Ensure accurate and timely completion of handover packs, as-built records, and supporting project documentation.
* Maintain strong health & safety compliance across all active sites.
Why This Role Is Different
* Help develop and improve project delivery processes, tools, and reporting systems
* Bring structure and consistency to delivery practices while remaining flexible to change
* Work closely with leadership to scale operations as project volume increases
* Contribute to building a high-performance, accountable delivery culture
* Solve problems pragmatically where formal processes may not yet exist
What Good Looks Like
* Experience in project delivery within fibre networks, telecoms infrastructure, utilities, or civil engineering
* Strong understanding of FTTH/FTTP build processes (civils, cabling, splicing, and installation)
* Proven ability to manage multiple concurrent projects in a fast-paced environment
* Experience coordinating subcontractors and field-based delivery teams
* Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to make decisions under pressure
* Good commercial awareness, including budget tracking and cost control
* Excellent organisational skills and attention to detail
* Strong communication and stakeholder management skills
* Comfortable working in environments where structure is still evolving
Nice to Have
* Experience working in a fibre startup, scale-up, or rapidly growing infrastructure business
* Familiarity with PIA processes and UK fibre rollout standards
* Project management certification (PRINCE2, PMP, APM)
* Experience contributing to or building delivery systems and workflows
* Knowledge of GIS, design coordination, or network planning processes
What You’ll Get
* Opportunity to shape how fibre projects are delivered within a growing startup
* High-impact role with direct influence on operational success and company growth, and direct access to leadership
* Rapid career progression with potential into leadership roles as the company scales
* Exposure to full lifecycle fibre deployment from planning through to handover
* Dynamic environment where ownership and initiative are highly valued
* A remote-first, hybrid working environment that offers flexibility
