Full Job Description
An award-winning civil engineering and renewables subcontractor is looking for a Project Manager to join their growing team. With a surge in new work and secured frameworks with major energy and renewables clients, as well as several local authorities, this business is scaling rapidly and needs a capable, hands-on leader to take ownership of key projects.
From rail infrastructure to renewables and public sector civils, you'll work across a wide variety of technically engaging projects — all while having a direct impact on the company’s direction and future success.
This is a full project lifecycle role. You’ll be involved from tender through to delivery, running multiple civil and renewables projects with minimal supervision. The environment is fast-paced and dynamic — ideal for someone who thrives on ownership and action.
They’re looking for someone who gets stuck in and uses their initiative. You’ll be solutions-focused, commercially aware, and confident leading teams and building lasting relationships with stakeholders.
What You’ll Do
- Lead all phases of projects — from bids and planning to delivery and handover
- Manage budgets, timelines, resources, and risks with commercial acumen
- Maintain high standards in health & safety, quality, and environmental compliance
- Collaborate with internal teams, subcontractors, and external stakeholders
- Build strong client relationships and become a trusted point of contact
- Oversee site personnel and manage suppliers, plant, and materials
- Travel to project sites (UK-wide)
Who You Are
- Experienced Project Manager from a civil engineering and/or renewables background
- Proactive and solutions-focused — you take initiative without needing to be asked
- Confident working across the full project lifecycle
- Able to lead and manage teams while maintaining strong client rapport
- Organised and commercially savvy, with a track record of delivering on time and within budget
- Comfortable working flexibly, occasionally including weekends or travel
- Degree-qualified in a relevant discipline
- Holding a current PTS card would be a benefit.
Why This Role?
- Influence: You’ll be a key voice in decision-making, helping shape the future of the business
- Ownership: You’ll run your own projects with full responsibility and autonomy
- Variety: Work across rail, local authority civils, and renewables frameworks
- Growth: Be part of a growing team with real opportunities to progress
Location: Office-based in Central Scotland (with UK travel)
