An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Project Manager to join a well-established and growing multidisciplinary property and construction consultancy in Manchester. The business has an excellent reputation across the UK and a particularly strong track record delivering complex projects and programmes for major public and private sector organisations. With a growing Manchester team, an established pipeline of work and recent investment at senior Project Director level, they are now looking to appoint an ambitious Project Manager who wants to take greater ownership of projects, develop directly with clients and progress towards Senior Project Manager and beyond. The Opportunity What makes this role particularly interesting is the breadth and scale of the work. The consultancy is involved in everything from major refurbishment, retrofit and workplace programmes through to new-build developments, regeneration, estate improvement and complex multi-building schemes. They also hold positions on major public-sector frameworks and support long-term programmes across large and operationally complex property estates. This means you aren't necessarily joining to work on one project or one type of scheme for the next few years. Projects and programmes can include: Major refurbishment, fit-out and workplace programmes Retrofit, lifecycle replacement and decarbonisation Complex new-build developments and regeneration schemes Multi-building estate and long-term capital investment programmes Projects delivered within live and operational environments The team works across the full project lifecycle, from early feasibility, business case and project strategy through procurement, design development, construction, handover and occupation. About the Business The company is an established multidisciplinary property and construction consultancy providing Project Management, Cost Management, Building Consultancy, Architecture, Engineering and wider advisory services. One of the advantages of the business is its genuinely multidisciplinary structure. As a Project Manager, you aren't operating within an isolated PM team. You'll work alongside specialists across cost, building consultancy, design, engineering and other technical disciplines, giving you much broader exposure to how complex projects are developed and delivered. The consultancy has built long-standing relationships with major organisations across the UK and is regularly appointed to support both individual capital projects and larger estate-wide programmes. A significant proportion of its work is secured through repeat relationships, direct appointments and established frameworks, creating a strong forward pipeline for the team. The Manchester Team The Manchester operation is established but continuing to grow, with recent investment strengthening the senior Project Management leadership within the office. You'll work alongside experienced Project Directors, Senior Project Managers and specialists from across the wider consultancy. For someone at Project Manager level, this creates a good balance. There are experienced people around you to learn from and provide support when required, but the team is growing enough that you can still become visible, take genuine responsibility and progress. Rather than sitting within multiple layers of management, you'll have direct access to senior members of the business while being encouraged to develop your own client relationships and projects. The Role As Project Manager, you'll take responsibility for managing projects and workstreams from inception through to completion. You'll work directly with clients, consultants, contractors and internal technical teams to ensure projects are successfully delivered, while gradually taking greater responsibility for client management, programme, risk, governance and commercial performance. Responsibilities will include: Managing construction, refurbishment and development projects from inception through to completion Taking ownership of individual projects and workstreams within larger programmes Acting as a key day-to-day client contact and building long-term relationships Coordinating multidisciplinary consultant, design and contractor teams Developing project programmes, delivery strategies and reporting frameworks Managing project risk, change, governance and key milestones Supporting procurement, tendering, contract strategy and administration Leading project and stakeholder meetings and preparing management information Monitoring programme, cost, quality and overall delivery performance Supporting and developing more junior members of the Project Management team As you develop, you'll be encouraged to become increasingly autonomous, taking greater ownership of your projects and client relationships rather than remaining in a supporting PM position. About You This would particularly suit someone with around 2-3+ years experience who feels ready to take the next step in their Project Management career. You may currently be working within a construction consultancy, contractor or client-side organisation and be looking for broader project exposure and greater responsibility. Ideally, you'll bring: Experience delivering construction, refurbishment, fit-out or development projects across multiple lifecycle stages Experience coordinating multidisciplinary teams Strong client-facing and stakeholder management skills Understanding of programme, risk, procurement and project governance Commercial awareness around project cost and change Confidence taking ownership of projects and resolving issues A relevant construction or property-related degree MRICS, MAPM, MCIOB or progress towards professional accreditation would be advantageous Experience working within large estates, complex operational environments, public-sector programmes or multidisciplinary projects would also be particularly relevant. Progression There is a genuine opportunity to build a longer-term career within the Manchester team. The business is continuing to invest in its Project Management capability and wants people who can develop alongside that growth. You'll have access to experienced senior professionals, structured professional development and support towards relevant chartership while being given increasing autonomy as your experience develops. What's on Offer Competitive salary, comprehensive benefits package and hybrid/flexible working Strong pipeline of secured work across major projects and long-term programmes You'll also gain varied refurbishment, retrofit, new-build and redevelopment experience, full project lifecycle exposure, genuine project and client ownership, direct access to experienced Project Directors and support towards professional accreditation. For a Project Manager who wants more variety, greater ownership and somewhere they can genuinely progress, this is an excellent opportunity to join an established consultancy while its Manchester Project Management team continues to grow.

You will become an integral part of a professional team delivering Building Surveying, Design and Project Management services for a diverse and high-quality portfolio of clients, with particular strengths across the public sector, education and wider public realm.

The Opportunity Working alongside Building Surveyors, Project Managers, designers and other property professionals, you will help coordinate projects from initial instruction through procurement and delivery. Your role will provide the organisational structure behind multiple live projects - keeping information moving, documentation accurate, actions progressing and clients and project teams properly informed. Typical responsibilities will include: Coordinating project documentation, reports, correspondence and information Supporting the preparation of tenders, schedules and project submissions Monitoring project actions, deadlines and key deliverables Attending project and client meetings, preparing minutes and driving actions through to completion Supporting budget, expenditure, invoicing and purchase order processes Liaising with clients, consultants, contractors and other external stakeholders Maintaining project records, shared information systems and document control Coordinating diaries, meetings and project communications Supporting Building Surveying, Design and Project Management teams across multiple commissions Helping ensure projects are professionally presented, properly organised and delivered to the standards expected by clients Who are we looking for?

You are comfortable communicating with clients, consultants, contractors and senior colleagues. Detail focused. Reports, documents, meeting notes and project information need to be accurate and professionally presented. Proactive. You don't simply record an action; you take ownership of helping ensure it happens. Interested in the built environment. You want to understand the projects you are supporting rather than simply administer them. Why consider this opportunity? This is an opportunity to build a genuine career within a highly regarded multidisciplinary consultancy. You will work alongside experienced professionals and gain exposure to interesting and often complex property projects for organisations whose buildings and estates have a real impact on the communities they serve. For someone with ambition, the role offers considerably more than traditional project administration.

The business prides itself on incredibly high levels of customer service, delivered by a team of highly professional, enthusiastic and talented property specialists. Knight Frank is the leading independent property consultancy in the UK. Established in 1897, it now comprises a global network of over 200 offices, advising private investors, corporate landlords, funds and individual homeowners across the commercial and residential sectors. Promise's delivery model is a blend of people and property: permanent, on-site managers for larger multi-let buildings, and in-house mobile managers for smaller properties and single assets. That is backed by a high level of technical knowledge, a strong health and safety culture, and a preference for local, expert suppliers and ethical procurement over a one-size-fits-all model. The North East Team The North East region is led by a Director from the Newcastle office, covering Newcastle, Sunderland, Stockton, Durham and Teesside, plus an outlying site in Whitby. The team includes Senior FMs, a Roving FM team, Building Managers, and site-based and office staff.

Knight Frank Promise is adding to its North East Roving FM team. This purpose of this hire is to take on the facilities management of multiple key properties in the portfolio and to assist with the current team workload. This allows the region room to build the new team member up gradually rather than handing over a full portfolio on day one. As Roving Facilities Manager, you will look after a portfolio of up to 20 properties. The mix is predominantly industrial, alongside retail and office, and includes smaller drive-through retail sites. The successful candidate will hold a full TFM remit across hard and soft services, working alongside Knight Frank Management Surveyors, Partners and client teams to deliver agreed service levels and budgets. The role is largely on the road. Newcastle is the natural base, with regular travel across the region including Teesside and Whitby. The position therefore requires someone who is able to organise their own workload and resolve issues at a distance by phone or Teams when you can't be on site. Onboarding is structured, with shadowing, mentoring and a buddy from the existing team. There is also a visible route to a senior roving role, potentially including people management: a senior Roving FM in the team already combines a portfolio with managing two staffed buildings. As properties transition in and out of the regional portfolio, no two years look the same. The successful candidate will: Manage hard and soft services across up to 20 properties, including planned preventative maintenance Visit each site at least monthly to inspect, take meter readings and report on condition and compliance Hold regular contract meetings with suppliers, assessing their performance against KPIs Procure goods and services, validate invoices and support the management of service charge budgets Ensure all works have the correct health and safety arrangements, supporting ISO 45001 objectives Liaise with occupiers, on-site staff and suppliers, keeping everyone informed until issues are resolved The Ideal Candidate The preferred candidate will have the following experience and attributes: At least two years' FM experience, with a good grasp of Managing Agent responsibilities NEBOSH General Certificate essential; IWFM and/or IOSH membership highly desirable Good knowledge of commercial landlord and tenant matters, including service charge Sound soft services knowledge, an understanding of hard services, and clear communication Strong contract management skills, ideally using a formal performance management system Awareness training in Fire Risk Assessment, Asbestos Awareness and Water Hygiene Managing agent, client-side multi-site FM, or single-site experience and ready to step up Industrial, retail or office sector experience are all relevant Comfortable working remotely, managing your own diary and resolving issues at distance A self-starter with a co-operative attitude and ambition to progress in two to three years A full driving licence and your own transport to visit sites Why Join Promise?

The North East team works collaboratively, sharing best practice, problem-solving and site knowledge with colleagues across Knight Frank and Promise.

Health and safety sits at the centre of how the team operates: working together, working safely and preventing harm, backed by experts in their field and clear ISO 45001 objectives. For a Roving Facilities Manager, the variety is a real attraction. The regional portfolio spans industrial estates, retail parks, offices and roadside developments such as Integra 61 in Durham, and it changes constantly as properties come in and out. It suits someone practical and adaptable who enjoys seeing situations through to conclusion.
