Project Manager

Lead Complex Electrical Infrastructure Projects from Design to Delivery

Are you an experienced Project Manager looking for your next challenge?

This role can be based remotely in the UK or Ireland - with travel to our offices in Burnfoot Ireland when required.

This is a high-impact role where you’ll take projects from sales handover and engineering, manufacturing, site delivery and final close-out. You’ll be the key point of contact for the client, bringing together engineering, production, commercial, procurement and site teams to deliver complex projects. 

If you enjoy working at the intersection of engineering, construction, manufacturing and project delivery, this is an opportunity to make a real impact.

What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll have end-to-end responsibility for your projects, including:

Own the client relationship from project handover through to successful completion.
Lead project mobilisation, confirming site requirements, programmes, key dates and deliverables.
Coordinate the production and approval of technical submittals, working closely with Engineering.
Lead BIM coordination, including modelling programmes, design freeze, drawing submissions and client approvals.
Manage scope changes, variations, commercial issues and client expectations throughout delivery.
Develop and maintain project programmes, working with Planning to manage key milestones, production slots and site requirements.
Coordinate with Production Planning to ensure projects are released and manufactured in line with programme requirements.
Identify long-lead materials, procurement risks and project dependencies, working with Purchasing to mitigate potential delays.
Take ownership of project budgets, cost control, revenue, commercial performance and variations.
Manage monthly applications for payment and invoicing.
Maintain project risks, issues, dependencies and actions (RIDAC) and drive timely resolution.
Coordinate delivery dates, logistics and dispatch with the Transport and Site Deployment teams.
Ensure construction drawings are issued to the installation team at the appropriate stage.
Oversee the completion of as-built drawings, O&M manuals and project documentation.
Lead project close-out, final measure reconciliation and lessons learned.
Provide clear and regular project reporting to the Project Delivery Lead.
 

This isn’t a purely administrative Project Manager position.

You’ll be working across the complete project lifecycle, combining technical understanding, construction coordination, commercial management and client leadership.

You’ll gain exposure to:

⚡ Electrical Distribution – busbar trunking and electrical infrastructure
🏗️ Construction & MEP – complex projects within live construction environments
🏢 Data Centres – projects supporting critical, high-performance infrastructure
📐 Engineering & BIM – technical submittals, design coordination and design freeze
💷 Commercial Management – budgets, variations, cost control and applications for payment
🏭 Manufacturing – engineer-to-order production and project-specific manufacturing
🚚 Site & Logistics – coordinating manufacturing, delivery and installation
🤝 Client Management – becoming the trusted point of contact throughout delivery

What We’re Looking For
Experience
Project Management experience ideally within engineering, manufacturing, MEP, electrical, construction or data centre environments or similar.
Proven ability to manage multiple complex projects simultaneously from initial handover through to completion.
Experience taking ownership of client-facing projects in a delivery-focused environment.

We’re looking for someone who can take ownership, solve problems and make things happen.

You’ll be comfortable operating in a fast-paced environment where priorities can change, projects run concurrently and successful delivery depends on strong collaboration across multiple teams.

If you’re an experienced Project Manager, Electrical Project Manager, MEP Project Manager, Construction Project Manager or Engineering Project Manager looking to work on technically challenging projects within the data centre and electrical infrastructure sectors, we’d like to hear from you.
