Excellent Salary + Bonus + Car Allowance + Benefits

Lead landmark projects. Shape strategy. Inspire high-performing teams.

An established and highly respected specialist façade contractor is looking to appoint an exceptional Project Director to lead the successful delivery of some of London's most prestigious commercial and mixed-use developments.

With almost 50 years of experience delivering complex façade and building envelope solutions, this business has built an enviable reputation for technical excellence, early contractor involvement, and long-term relationships with some of the UK's leading developers, consultants and main contractors. From iconic commercial towers to award-winning residential and mixed-use schemes, they continue to play a key role in shaping the London skyline.

The Opportunity

As Project Director, you will provide strategic leadership across a portfolio of high-value projects, ensuring exceptional delivery from pre-construction through to completion.

Working closely with the Pre-Construction, Commercial and Design teams, you'll influence project strategy from the earliest stages, driving programme certainty, commercial performance, quality, safety and client satisfaction throughout the project lifecycle.

This is a senior leadership position where you'll mentor and develop project teams, strengthen client relationships, manage project governance and risk, and champion a culture of collaboration and continuous improvement.

Key Responsibilities

Lead the successful delivery of multiple complex façade and building envelope projects.
Develop project strategies that maximise programme certainty, profitability and client satisfaction.
Provide leadership, support and mentoring to Project Managers and wider delivery teams.
Work collaboratively with Pre-Construction, Design and Commercial teams to ensure seamless project transitions.
Maintain strong relationships with clients, consultants, architects and main contractors.
Drive commercial awareness and operational excellence across every project.
Oversee project governance, reporting, risk management and resource planning.
Ensure the highest standards of health & safety, quality and compliance.
Promote a culture of accountability, innovation and continuous improvement.

About You

We're looking for a confident and inspiring leader with a proven track record of delivering complex construction projects.

You'll ideally have:

Significant experience operating at Project Director or Senior Project Manager level.
Strong knowledge of façade, curtain walling, cladding or specialist building envelope packages.
Experience delivering high-value commercial, residential or mixed-use developments.
Excellent commercial awareness and contractual knowledge.
Outstanding leadership and stakeholder management skills.
A proactive, solutions-focused approach with the ability to influence at all levels.
The credibility to build trusted relationships with clients and internal teams alike.

What's on Offer

Excellent salary and comprehensive benefits package.
Performance-related bonus.
Car allowance.
Opportunity to lead prestigious, technically challenging projects.
Join a market-leading specialist contractor with an exceptional reputation.
Long-term career progression within a growing and forward-thinking business.
Flexible base from either the Essex Head Office or London Office, with travel to project sites as required.

If you're an experienced Project Director ready to make a significant impact within one of the UK's leading specialist façade contractors, we'd love to hear from you.

Apply today for a confidential discussion.
