Project Manager | Civils (Water Sector) | Yorkshire | £55k - £65k + Package

I’m working with a growing civil engineering contractor to recruit a Project Manager due to continued growth and a strong pipeline of work across Yorkshire.

This is an office-based role with regular site visits, offering the opportunity to take full ownership of projects within a hands-on, delivery-focused business.

The Role;

You’ll be responsible for managing civil engineering projects from planning through to completion, with a focus on water and wastewater infrastructure schemes.

  • Liaising with clients, stakeholders, and internal teams
  • Conducting regular site visits to monitor progress and resolve issues
  • Supporting procurement, planning, and reporting activities
  • Ensuring health & safety standards are maintained throughout
  • Managing project risks and driving efficient delivery

What You’ll Need;

  • Backgrounds considered: Site Engineer, Site Manager, General Foreman
  • Experience delivering projects within the water or wastewater sector
  • Strong understanding of drainage, pipelines, and sewer infrastructure
  • Experience working for a self-delivery contractor
  • Ability to manage projects rather than just subcontract packages
  • Good knowledge of construction methods, sequencing, and site operations
  • Strong communication and organisational skills
  • Must have the right to work in the UK

Why Apply?

  • Join a growing contractor with a strong secured workload
  • Take full ownership of projects from start to finish
