Summary
We are seeking a Project Manager to lead a £10 million refurbishment project at a police station in the West Midlands. This is an excellent opportunity for a candidate earlier in their career who is IT literate, comfortable with client liaison and reporting, and eager to progress into senior Project Management roles and beyond. The successful candidate will have a proven record of delivering projects up to £10 million and will be responsible for managing all aspects of the project from inception through to completion, ensuring delivery on time, within budget, and to the required quality standards.
