**Senior Project Manager**
**Location:** Oxford
**Salary:** £55,000–£70,000 + benefits
An established and well-regarded construction consultancy is looking to appoint an experienced Senior Project Manager to join its growing Oxford team.
This is a great opportunity to take on a varied and interesting portfolio of projects across a number of sectors, including heritage, education, industrial & logistics and residential. You'll be working closely with clients, consultants and wider project teams, taking ownership of projects from the early stages of development and briefing right through to completion.
The role would suit someone who enjoys being hands-on with project delivery, building strong client relationships and having the autonomy to lead projects rather than simply oversee them. You'll play an important role in driving projects forward, providing clear direction to multidisciplinary teams and ensuring everything stays on track from a programme, cost, quality and risk perspective.
With exposure to different project types and technically challenging environments, this is an opportunity to broaden your experience, take on greater responsibility and continue developing your career within a supportive consultancy environment.
**The Role**
You'll have responsibility for leading projects through all RIBA stages, acting as a key point of contact for clients and ensuring successful delivery from inception through to completion.
Your responsibilities will include:
* Taking the lead on multiple projects, managing the process from initial briefing and feasibility through design, procurement, construction and handover.
* Building and maintaining strong relationships with clients, consultants, contractors and other key stakeholders.
* Leading multidisciplinary design teams and ensuring everyone is working towards agreed project objectives.
* Developing and managing project programmes, monitoring progress and proactively addressing any issues that could impact delivery.
* Advising clients on procurement strategies, consultant appointments and project delivery options.
* Managing project risks, change control and commercial considerations, ensuring appropriate governance is maintained throughout.
* Providing regular client updates, reporting on progress and offering clear, practical advice to support key project decisions.
* Maintaining oversight of quality, programme and project performance, ensuring schemes are delivered to the required standards.
**What We're Looking For**
We're keen to speak with Project Managers who have a strong consultancy background and are comfortable taking ownership of projects in a client-facing environment.
Ideally, you'll have:
* Experience working within a construction or project management consultancy.
* A track record of managing projects across the full RIBA lifecycle.
* Experience coordinating multidisciplinary teams and managing complex stakeholder environments.
* A good understanding of project governance, procurement, programme management and risk control.
* Experience working within regulated, technically complex or stakeholder-heavy project environments.
* Chartered status with RICS, CIOB or APM.
**What's on Offer?**
* A varied project portfolio spanning heritage, education, industrial & logistics and residential sectors.
* The opportunity to take ownership of projects and build strong, lasting client relationships.
* A collaborative working environment with experienced and supportive senior leadership.
* Genuine scope to develop your responsibilities and progress your career.
* A competitive salary of £55,000–£70,000, alongside a wider benefits package.
