Project Manager - Civil Engineering / NEC in Worcester, United Kingdom

M5 Corridor – Midlands to South West | £80,000 – £100,000 + Package

We are recruiting for an experienced Project Manager to join an established and ambitious civil engineering contractor delivering major civils and groundworks packages across the Midlands and South West.

This is an excellent opportunity for a Project Manager with a strong civil engineering background and NEC contract experience who is comfortable taking ownership of projects from mobilisation through to successful completion.

Projects typically range from approximately £1m to £10m and include work across commercial construction, education, schools, DfE programmes, MOD/MOJ and prison environments, alongside other major public and private sector developments.

The geographical requirement broadly follows the M5 corridor, from the Midlands through Worcestershire, Gloucestershire and the South West, with projects potentially extending as far as Plymouth.

The Role

As Project Manager, you'll take overall responsibility for the successful operational delivery of civil engineering packages.

You'll lead projects from pre-start and mobilisation through construction, completion and handover, working closely with Commercial, Engineering and Site Management teams.

Typical works can include:

* Bulk earthworks

* Drainage and attenuation

* Foundations and substructures

* Reinforced concrete

* External works

* Roads and infrastructure

* Section 278 works
