Wokingham, Berkshire
1. Why we are hiring LaserTec is a fast growing specialist industrial laser cleaning contractor. We work across heritage, construction, marine, nuclear, defence and insurance reinstatement, on site and through equipment sales, hire, training and consulting. Our jobs are getting bigger. We are now regularly delivering projects of one week or more as a subcontractor to tier-1 main contractors and developers, on live construction and restoration sites across the UK. Examples of the current pipeline include a multi-week facade cleaning package on a City of London commercial scheme under a Principal Contractor, and a heritage gas holder restoration for a major residential developer. At the moment, planning and delivery of these jobs is carried across the founder, the Ops Manager and the Site Supervisor. That does not scale. We need one person who owns each longer job end to end: before, during and after. 2. What the role does The Project Manager owns every job over roughly one week in duration, from handover from Sales through to close-out and lessons learned. Before the job (planning) Take the won proposal and turn it into a deliverable plan: programme, crew, kit, access, consumables, extraction, waste, power, welfare Produce and own RAMS, permits, laser safety documentation and site-specific method statements, working with our Laser Safety Officer Attend pre-start meetings with the client and Principal Contractor; manage inductions, CSCS and competency evidence for the crew Confirm scope, sequencing, hold points, sign-off criteria and variation process in writing before we start Set the budget baseline for hours, lasers and consumables against the proposal During the job (delivery) Be the client's primary point of contact on site and off Run daily coordination with the Site Supervisor; make sure the crew has what it needs and the programme is being hit Track progress against the plan daily: m done, hours used, lasers deployed, downtime and why Spot and price variations early; agree them before the work is done, not after Manage site relationships with the main contractor's team, other trades and the client's project manager Escalate risks to Ops and the CEO with options, not just problems After the job (review and improvement) Close out commercially: final measure, variations agreed, application for payment supported with evidence Run a structured job review: estimate vs actual on hours, rates and consumables; what worked, what did not Feed findings back into our estimating assumptions, method library and future proposals Produce a short case study and client reference where appropriate 3. Who we are looking for We are open on sector. Attitude and process matter more than having done laser cleaning before; nobody has, and we will train the technical side. But the person must be credible on a tier-1 construction site from day one. Must have Three to seven years running site-based projects or work packages, ideally as a specialist subcontractor delivering into main contractors. Comfortable being the face of a small specialist company in front of a large client; calm, direct, professional under pressure Working knowledge of CDM, RAMS, permits to work, and how a Principal Contractor's site runs SMSTS (or SSSTS with a clear path to SMSTS) and a valid CSCS card Demonstrable track record of commercial control: tracking hours and cost against budget, identifying and agreeing variations, supporting applications for payment Organised and systematic by habit: writes things down, follows up, closes loops Full UK driving licence and willingness to be on site in London and the rest of the UK, including some early starts, nights or weekends when the programme demands it Strongly preferred Experience with heritage or listed building work, or with conservation officers and heritage consultants Comfortable with structured tools and software: we run our own business operating system and expect the PM to live in and help us develop it, not in a notebook Has worked in a small, growing company and understands that means wearing more than one hat Nice to have First Aid at Work, Asbestos Awareness, IPAF, PASMA Any laser safety, radiation or hazardous materials background Experience in nuclear, defence or marine environments, or security clearance We are not looking for A pure office-based PM who has not run work on site or someone from a very large contractor who is used to a full support team and has not done the paperwork themselves or a site manager who is strong operationally but has never owned a budget or a client relationship or anyone who needs a fixed 9 to 5 in Wokingham; HQ is in Wokingham but the job goes where the work is and will be in the office irregularly 4. The profile in one paragraph A mid-career site or project manager, who has spent enough time on tier-1 sites to know how they work and enough time in a small firm to know how to get things done without a department behind them. Commercially sharp, tidy on paperwork, good with clients, and excited by the idea of helping to build the delivery function of a growing technology-led contractor rather than just slotting into one that already exists. 5. What we offer Genuine ownership: this is the first dedicated PM role in the business, and the person will shape how we deliver A distinctive technology and a growing order book of high-profile, critical environment and mega-projects. Full training in laser cleaning technology and laser safety will be provided. Direct access to the founder and a clear path to a Head of Delivery or Operations role as the business grows. Contact For a confidential conversation about this role, please contact: Rob Andrews Founding Director, 2XR Executive Search This search is being conducted by 2XR on behalf of LaserTec.

Contracts Manager We're working with a 5 star residential developer who is looking to strengthen its senior team across Sussex, Hampshire and Surrey with the appointment of an experienced Contracts Manager. This is a key role within the region and one that goes beyond simply overseeing a group of sites. You'll have responsibility for around 4-5 developments at different stages, from new sites coming through to projects already well into construction, while also playing a part in helping the region grow. The developments will be a mixture of private-sale and partnership schemes, so the ability to understand that different projects can require different approaches will be important. The Role You'll be responsible for providing clear direction across your developments, supporting your Site and Project teams and making sure everyone understands what good looks like. This is a role for someone who naturally looks beyond the immediate issue in front of them. A good Contracts Manager should be able to walk onto a site, understand where the problems are, ask the right questions and then work with the team to put things right - without taking ownership away from the people running the site. Your responsibilities will include: Overseeing 4-5 developments across Sussex and Surrey, covering both new and live sites Providing leadership and direction to Site Managers, Project Managers and wider construction teams Setting clear expectations around programme, quality, health & safety, customer care and commercial performance Regularly reviewing site performance and challenging where standards or targets aren't being met Working closely with Commercial, Technical, Land, Planning and other internal departments to resolve issues and keep developments moving Being involved in new sites from the early stages, helping ensure projects are properly resourced, planned and set up before construction gets underway Supporting teams through difficult stages of construction and helping find practical solutions rather than simply highlighting problems Monitoring build programmes, prelims, labour levels, subcontractor performance and overall site progress Ensuring NHBC and company quality standards are understood and consistently maintained Mentoring and developing members of the construction team, helping identify where individuals can improve and where future talent can be developed Creating consistency across the region while allowing Site Managers the autonomy to run their developments Bringing new ideas, better ways of working and practical improvements into the business Taking an active role in helping shape the future growth of the Sussex, Hampshire and Surrey region The Person We're looking for someone who has proven experience operating at Contracts Manager level within residential housebuilding and understands what it takes to manage several developments simultaneously. The right person won't just be a strong construction manager. They'll be someone who can lead people, influence other departments and make decisions. You'll ideally have: A strong background in residential housebuilding Previous experience as a Contracts Manager, Senior Contracts Manager or similar regional construction leadership position Experience overseeing multiple developments rather than a single site A good understanding of both private-sale and partnership/affordable housing Strong knowledge of traditional housebuilding and NHBC requirements A commercially aware approach and the ability to understand how construction decisions impact the wider business Strong people-management and mentoring skills The confidence to challenge performance when required, but also the ability to bring people with you A genuine interest in improving processes and finding better ways of working The motivation to play a part in growing and developing a region, rather than simply managing what is already there Most importantly, we're looking for someone who takes ownership. Someone who will see an issue across several sites and think about how it can be prevented in the future, rather than fixing the same problem five times. Someone who will develop their Site Managers rather than simply manage them. And someone who can work across the business to get the right people involved and keep projects moving. What's On Offer Up to 100,000 salary Package Responsibility for 4-5 developments across Sussex & Surrey Mix of private-sale and partnership developments Exposure to both new and established sites A genuine opportunity to influence how the region operates The chance to mentor and develop the next generation of construction managers A senior position within a growing regional business Scope to bring your own ideas and make changes rather than simply following an established formula The opportunity to be part of the continued growth of the Sussex & Surrey region If you're already operating as a Contracts Manager and want a position where you're able to influence more than just the build programme, this could be a very good next move. Equally, if you're currently a strong Senior Contracts Manager or experienced Senior Site/Project Manager ready to step into a broader regional role, we'd be interested in speaking with you.
