The Opportunity
This is not a generic construction Project Manager role…
We require a technically capable bespoke commercial joinery professional who understands how detailed joinery packages are designed, developed and manufactured.
A core element of this position involves preparing and coordinating comprehensive CAD information packs, ensuring all technical detail is accurate and complete before drawings are produced for manufacture.
You must be confident reading architectural drawings and specifications, understanding complex joinery detailing, and translating design intent into practical manufacturing information.
Candidates from general construction, steelwork or unrelated trades will not be suitable for this role.
Key Responsibilities

* Review and interpret architectural drawings, specifications and tender documentation
* Prepare and coordinate detailed CAD information packs to enable accurate technical drawing production
* Ensure all technical design information is complete, manufacturable and commercially viable
* Liaise closely with design, production and site teams to ensure seamless delivery
* Undertake pre-construction site surveys
* Develop, agree and manage project programmes
* Ensure materials, labour and design resources are fully aligned to programme
* Assist with cost planning and monitor budgets throughout project lifecycle
* Lead and coordinate internal and external project teams
* Maintain strong, professional client relationships
* Deliver projects to exceptional quality standards
* Promote and drive continuous Health & Safety improvements
