Project Manager, Regulatory Compliance Specialist, Program ​/ Project Manager

Barnsley Facilities Services is looking for a motivated and capable Project Manager to join our Capital Projects Team at an exciting time of growth and investment across our healthcare estate.

This internal opportunity may suit an experienced Project Manager or an individual who is ready to take the next step in their career and develop further within a supportive estates project environment. Applications from colleagues seeking a progression or development opportunity will be welcomed. However, this is a substantive project management role, and the successful candidate will be expected to take responsibility for managing projects from the outset, with appropriate support and oversight.

The role will support the delivery of a diverse and ambitious capital programme across the Trust estate. This is a busy, fast‑paced and demanding portfolio, requiring strong organisation, resilience, effective stakeholder management and the ability to manage competing priorities. The successful candidate will help ensure projects are delivered safely, on time, within budget and to the required quality standards.

At BFS, we are committed to our values of Communicate, Collaborate and Innovate. If you are passionate about delivering high‑quality projects that make a real difference to patients, staff and our community, we would welcome your application.

Responsible for managing a range of capital and estates projects from inception through to completion. You will develop project plans, coordinate resources, manage budgets, monitor progress and help ensure projects are delivered safely, efficiently and within agreed timescales.

Working with colleagues across BFS and the Trust, as well as external consultants, contractors and suppliers. This will include managing day‑to‑day project activity, identifying and escalating risks, resolving issues and ensuring compliance with relevant legislation, NHS guidance, health and safety requirements and internal governance processes.

You will prepare and maintain key project documentation, including project plans, business cases, cost estimates, risk registers, procurement documentation and progress reports. You will be expected to provide clear and timely updates to senior managers, project sponsors and key stakeholders.

You will build positive working relationships, contribute to service improvement and support the delivery of a challenging and ambitious capital programme. You will be expected to work with pace, professionalism and accountability, while also being supported to continue developing your project management skills and experience.
