We are seeking an experienced and highly motivated Senior Construction Project Manager to lead the successful delivery of complex construction projects across a diverse portfolio, ensuring excellence in safety, quality, programme performance, and client satisfaction.

You will lead multidisciplinary teams, manage key stakeholder relationships, oversee commercial and operational performance, and ensure projects are delivered safely, on time, within budget, and to the highest quality standards.

This is a strategic leadership role requiring exceptional project delivery expertise, strong commercial acumen, and the ability to foster collaborative working relationships with clients, consultants, subcontractors, and internal teams.

Build trusted client relationships, ensuring a high level of customer satisfaction.
Chair project meetings and provide regular progress reports.
Manage relationships with local authorities, consultants, supply chain partners, and statutory bodies.

Commercial Management

Oversee project budgets, forecasts, change control, and cost reporting.
Identify and deliver value engineering opportunities.
Ensure robust management of contract obligations and risk mitigation strategies.

Champion Wates' commitment to health, safety, and wellbeing.
Ensure all activities comply with current legislation, company policies, and industry best practices.
Promote a positive safety culture across project teams and subcontractors.
Lead incident investigations and ensure corrective actions are implemented where required.

Team Leadership

Lead and develop project teams, including Project Managers, Site Managers, Engineers, and support functions.
Foster a high-performance culture focused on collaboration, innovation, and continuous improvement.
Coach and mentor emerging leaders within the business.
Conduct performance reviews and support talent development initiatives.
