About the Role

We are recruiting an experienced client-side Estates Project Manager to take direct responsibility for the delivery of capital construction and refurbishment projects across a large education estate.

This role is not suitable for candidates whose experience is primarily PMO, portfolio reporting, governance, tooling, or consultancy-only delivery. Applicants must demonstrate direct client-side responsibility for capital estates projects.
