* Lead site teams and coordinate all stakeholders including clients, consultants, suppliers, and subcontractors.

* Ensure high-end finishes are delivered in line with brand standards, technical specifications, and client expectations.

* Identify project risks early and put effective mitigation plans in place.

* Oversee health and safety compliance and ensure works are delivered in line with all statutory and company requirements.

* Produce clear and accurate project reporting on progress, cost, risk, and programme status.

* Proven experience as a Project Manager within construction, fit-out, or refurbishment.

* Strong background in high-specification commercial interiors, ideally within automotive retail, luxury retail, or similarly finish-sensitive environments.

* Demonstrable experience in programme management and programme control on fast-paced live projects.

* Strong commercial awareness with hands-on experience of budget management, cost control, forecasting, and valuations.

* Ability to manage multiple stakeholders and maintain strong client relationships.

* Excellent attention to detail and commitment to quality.

* Strong leadership, negotiation, and communication skills.

* A proactive, organised, and solutions-focused approach.

Desirable

* Relevant construction qualification in Project Management, Construction Management, Quantity Surveying, or similar.

* SMSTS, CSCS, and First Aid qualifications.

* Familiarity with contract administration and change management processes.

This is an opportunity to work on prestigious showroom environments where quality, brand presentation, and project control are critical. You will play a key role in delivering standout spaces that reflect some of the most recognisable automotive brands in the market.
