Are you a highly experienced construction professional looking for a role where you can operate as a trusted right-hand to a Contracts Director, taking ownership of major projects, leading teams, and driving operational excellence?

Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment, enjoy building lasting client relationships, and have the confidence and experience to make decisions that keep projects moving forward? If so, we'd love to hear from you.

7formation is a rapidly expanding nationwide construction and fit-out company dedicated to excellence, innovation and growth. Working with clients including Next, Adidas, DFS and Travis Perkins, we deliver projects across a diverse range of sectors throughout the UK.

Due to continued growth, we are seeking an experienced Senior Project Manager to join our team.

This is an excellent opportunity for an established construction professional who can hit the ground running, providing strong leadership across multiple projects while supporting the Contracts Director in the successful delivery of our growing portfolio. You'll play a key role in ensuring projects are delivered safely, profitably, on programme and to the highest standards, while acting as a senior point of contact for clients, site teams and key stakeholders.

The Role

As our Senior Project Manager, you will take ownership of project delivery from pre-construction through to completion, providing leadership, direction and support across all aspects of the project lifecycle.

You'll be expected to think beyond individual projects, identifying risks and opportunities, supporting operational improvements, mentoring teams, and helping drive business performance. This role would suit someone with the experience, confidence and commercial awareness to operate with minimal supervision and act as a trusted extension of the Contracts Director.

Key Responsibilities

Lead the successful delivery of construction and fit-out projects from pre-construction through to handover.

Support the Contracts Director in overseeing multiple projects and ensuring consistent operational performance.

Provide leadership and guidance to Project Managers, Site Managers and wider delivery teams.

Build and maintain strong relationships with clients, consultants, subcontractors and supply chain partners.

Take ownership of project programmes, resources and delivery strategies to ensure successful outcomes.

Monitor project performance, proactively identifying risks, delays and commercial impacts, implementing effective solutions where required.

Ensure projects are delivered safely, on time, within budget and to the highest quality standards.

Drive commercial performance through effective cost control, reporting and financial management.

Lead project reviews, progress meetings and client-facing discussions with professionalism and confidence.

Ensure compliance with all Health, Safety, Environmental and Quality requirements.

Support business growth by identifying opportunities to strengthen client relationships and secure repeat business.

Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives and best practice across the business.

What We're Looking For

Significant experience in a Senior Project Manager or equivalent leadership role within the construction industry.

Proven track record of delivering complex new-build, refurbishment or fit-out projects.

Strong operational and commercial acumen with experience managing project budgets, profitability and risk.

Excellent client-facing skills with the ability to develop long-term relationships and inspire confidence.

A natural leader capable of motivating, mentoring and developing project teams.

Ability to operate autonomously, make informed decisions and solve problems proactively.

Experience managing multiple projects and stakeholders simultaneously.

Strong understanding of construction contracts including JCT, NEC and Design & Build forms.

Professional, organised and highly driven, with a commitment to delivering exceptional results.

Qualifications & Skills

Valid SMSTS Certificate.

Construction-related qualification (Degree, HNC/HND or equivalent experience).

Time-served construction professional with a demonstrable track record of successful project delivery.

Full UK Driving Licence.
