Job Description

Project Manager - Defence Sector

Location: UK-wide (flexible working)

Sector: Defence / Construction Consultancy

Salary: Competitive, with a strong benefits package

A unique opportunity with a leading construction consultancy

I'm working with a respected and fast-growing construction consultancy that is delivering some of the UK's most high-profile Defence sector programmes. This is a genuinely exciting opportunity for a Project Manager with Defence experience to play a key role in complex, strategically important projects - with the support of a well-established and collaborative team.

This isn't a typical consultancy role. You'll be trusted with real responsibility from day one, working with major Defence clients and contributing to long-term, mission-critical infrastructure schemes.

The Role Includes

• Leading the delivery of Defence-related construction and infrastructure projects
• Managing stakeholders across multiple levels, including MOD and government clients
• Overseeing programmes from planning through to completion
• Ensuring project controls, reporting, and governance are applied to the highest standard
• Coordinating multi-disciplinary teams and ensuring smooth delivery
  
  

What They're Looking For

• Proven experience managing projects within the Defence sector
• Strong consultancy or client-side background in construction or infrastructure
• Confident stakeholder management and communication skills
• A good understanding of governance, compliance, and delivery best practices
• A proactive, solutions-focused approach with excellent attention to detail
  
  

What's On Offer

• The chance to join a business that values its people and promotes from within
• Career progression tailored to your goals and experience
• Flexible and hybrid working
• Access to major Defence sector projects that will challenge and inspire
• A supportive, professional culture focused on quality and delivery
