Client
An excellent opportunity has arisen for a Construction Project Manager to join a professional consultancy team based in their Belfast office, delivering a varied portfolio of commercial developments and historic building projects across the UK and Ireland.

Candidates from transferable backgrounds including Building Surveying, Quantity Surveying, Construction Management or contractor-side Project Management are welcomed, provided you are currently operating, or seeking to operate, in a professional consultancy role with client-facing project delivery experience. You will have strong written and verbal communication skills and be proficient in Microsoft Word, Excel, Outlook and Project. Applicants must have experience delivering construction projects in a consultancy capacity and be eligible to work in the UK.
