Senior Project Manager

Perfect role for a mid professional looking to grow their Property & Construction career in Aberdeen.

Aberdeen's built environment is going through a quiet transformation. Energy transition projects, commercial redevelopment and infrastructure renewal are keeping contractors and developers busy across the North East, and an established player in the sector needs a Senior Project Manager who can keep large-scale work moving without drama. This is a business that has been building things in this region for a long time. It knows what good looks like, and it has the frameworks to prove it.

Here's what you'll be doing

Running project delivery from pre-construction through to handover, keeping programme, cost and quality aligned throughout

Managing relationships with clients, subcontractors and design teams, and being the person who sorts out problems before they become expensive ones

Producing progress reports and forecasts that senior stakeholders can actually act on

Chairing site meetings, tracking risk registers, and making sure health and safety standards are never treated as an afterthought

Managing budgets and variations, with a close eye on margin protection

Coordinating multiple workstreams at once, some of which will inevitably clash for your attention

Here are the skills you'll need

Solid experience managing construction or property projects at a mid to senior level, ideally within a structured, process-driven environment

Working knowledge of NEC or JCT contract forms

Confidence with project management software and reporting tools

Strong commercial awareness. You'll need to spot cost risk before it becomes a live problem

The kind of communication skills that keep a room of contractors, architects and clients on the same page

A relevant degree or professional qualification (RICS, CIOB or similar) is preferred but not the only route in

Key perks and benefits

Salary of £41,000 to £51,000, depending on experience

Comprehensive benefits package including private medical and dental insurance

Enhanced pension scheme and performance-based bonuses

Office-based role in Aberdeen, working alongside an experienced project team rather than from a spare room

Structured career development within a large, established organisation

Why pursue a career in Property & Construction?

Property and construction rewards people who can hold detail and big-picture thinking at the same time, and demand in Aberdeen shows no sign of slowing. Energy transition alone is reshaping how the city builds, and someone stepping into a Senior Project Manager role now is arriving at a genuinely useful moment. Progression tends to be tangible here too. You can point at a finished building and say you managed that.
