Overview
We're seeking an experienced Project Manager to lead the delivery of a turnkey CAT A & CAT B fit-out project at Warwick University. This is a site-based role overseeing all stages of the project - from groundworks and structural elements through to final finishes.
The successful candidate will have a strong background in full turnkey construction, not just fit-out, and will be confident managing site teams, liaising with clients, and ensuring the project is delivered safely, on time, and to specification.
Key Responsibilities
Lead and manage all site-based activities from inception to completion.
Chair client, consultant, and subcontractor meetings, ensuring clear communication and accountability.
Coordinate with the Site Manager and wider delivery team to achieve programme and quality targets.
Oversee planning, sequencing, and procurement to ensure smooth workflow and delivery.
Manage subcontractor performance, site progress, and cost control.
Ensure compliance with all health, safety, and environmental requirements.
Report progress, risks, and key issues to senior management and the client team.
Requirements
Proven experience managing turnkey construction projects (not purely fit-out).
Strong knowledge of groundworks, drainage, foundations, structural steel, roofing, curtain walling, and internal fit-out.
Valid Black CSCS card (mandatory).
SMSTS and First Aid certifications.
Excellent leadership, communication, and client-facing skills.
Capable of managing complex site logistics and documentation.
