I’m supporting a leading main contractor based in Glasgow as they look to appoint an experienced Project Manager to help deliver a strong pipeline of high‑value projects. This is an excellent opportunity to join a progressive contractor with a reputation for quality, collaboration, and successful project delivery across Scotland.

You will work on new‑build, refurbishment, and fit‑out projects across a variety of sectors including education, commercial, industrial, leisure, and more.

• Oversee day‑to‑day delivery of construction projects, managing programme, budget, quality and resources.
• Lead and motivate site teams while maintaining a robust safety culture.
• Identify project risks early and implement effective mitigation strategies.
• Manage project scope, track progress, and ensure key milestones are achieved.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with clients, design teams and the wider supply chain.
• Ensure high‑quality reporting, compliance and project governance throughout.

• Proven experience delivering construction projects with a main contractor.
