Job description
We are looking for an experienced Retail Installation Project Manager to join our growing Retail Services team.
The role will be responsible for managing and delivering a range of retail execution projects, including POS installation programmes, retail audits, merchandising activity and wider retail deployment projects for national clients.
Working closely with clients, suppliers, installation partners and field teams, the successful candidate will take ownership of projects from planning through to completion, ensuring activity is delivered safely, efficiently, on time and within budget.
This role requires someone with a strong understanding of retail installation and field operations. The successful candidate will understand the practical challenges of working within live retail environments and be confident managing installation projects, contractor relationships, compliance requirements and project delivery.
The role will involve managing both large-scale multi-site programmes and smaller ad hoc Retail Services projects, ensuring all work is delivered professionally, safely and profitably whilst maintaining the highest standards of client service.
The position is primarily office-based at Linney, with travel to client sites across the UK for project meetings, site visits and installation activity, as required.
Due to the nature of retail installations, store openings and project delivery, there will be occasions where activity takes place outside of standard office hours, including evenings and weekends. The successful candidate will be expected to support projects during key installation periods and provide guidance to teams on the ground when required. Where out-of-hours working is necessary, working patterns will be adjusted accordingly to ensure this does not sit on top of the individual's normal working week.

- Ensure projects are delivered safely, on time, within budget and to agreed quality standards.
- Review installation requirements, site constraints and project specifications.
- Ensure all activity is delivered in line with Health & Safety legislation, client requirements and company procedures.
- Review and manage RAMS, contractor accreditations and compliance documentation.
- Support quality assurance processes, including reviewing POS, display and installation materials prior to dispatch.
- Monitor supplier and installer performance.
- Act as a day-to-day contact for clients and suppliers.
- Attend project meetings and client reviews.
- Provide project updates and reporting.
- Support the scoping and pricing of Retail Services opportunities.
- Ensure projects are delivered efficiently and profitably.
- Identify opportunities to improve delivery and add value for clients.
- Proven experience managing retail installation, POS deployment, merchandising or retail execution projects.
- Experience coordinating installers, contractors, suppliers and field teams.
- Strong understanding of retail installation processes and the challenges of working within live retail environments.
