Preston / Manchester / Liverpool Salary Negotiable + Excellent Benefits + Equity Pathway
An ambitious and technically strong Head of Projects is required as a key succession move within a highly regarded, multi-disciplinary Building Consultancy operating across the North West.
This is a genuine leadership position, not a relabelled senior Project Manager role. You will take ownership of an established and successful Project Management Service with live projects, strong client relationships and a capable team already in place. This is a structured handover of responsibility, not a blank-sheet rebuild.
Reporting directly to the Commercial Director, you will help shape the business’s direction and performance while embedding consistency across three offices. For the right individual, there is a clear pathway to Management Board participation and equity within 12 - 24 months.
This opportunity would suit either an Associate Director ready to step into full service-line leadership for the first time, or an experienced Director seeking genuine authority, long-term equity potential and strategic influence. What matters most is not your current title, but your ability to lead, challenge and own outcomes.Key Responsibilities
Full ownership of the Project Management Service Line across Preston, Manchester and Liverpool
Achieving and overseeing the Project Management sales target, including pipeline, forecasting and conversion
Leading, developing and retaining a high-performing project delivery team
Maintaining and strengthening Key Client Relationships while driving repeat business
Embedding consistency of delivery, quality standards and accountability across offices
Acting as escalation point for complex commissions and delivery risk
Leading or overseeing the most strategic and high-value projects
Driving collaboration across offices and breaking down operational silos
Contributing to wider business strategy alongside the Commercial Director and Management Board
You will have real authority over delivery approach and service performance, with a direct voice in strategic and operational decisions. This is a role for someone comfortable making and standing behind difficult decisions.
Skills & Experience
We are looking for a Building Surveyor-led Project Manager, not a pure process-driven PM. You will bring a strong Building Surveying background, with the technical confidence to advise clients, challenge design teams and contractors, and lead projects from a position of construction knowledge. You will ideally demonstrate:
Strong Project Management credentials with commercial credibility
Experience operating at Associate Director or Director level
The ability to lead with clarity, consistency and challenge
Confidence holding others to account — and being held accountable
A mindset focused on service-line performance and growth, not just individual project delivery
The resilience and authority to operate effectively under pressure
A genuine interest in developing future leaders within the team
Cultural alignment is critical. This business is values-led, authentic and down-to-earth. They deliver outstanding service by understanding client priorities and focusing on outcomes, not just tasks. Communication is clear, relationships are genuine and collaboration is expected. This is not an environment for corporate politics, bureaucracy or spreadsheet-only leadership.
This role is not suited to those who avoid difficult conversations, manage from a distance or see the opportunity as a short-term stepping stone.
In return, you will receive a highly competitive salary, car allowance and fuel contribution, alongside a performance bonus scheme of up to 12% of package. Additional benefits include hybrid and flexible working across offices, professional development support through an internal academy and industry events, pension (5% employer contribution plus salary sacrifice options), electric car scheme, private healthcare, professional fees paid, enhanced parental leave, 25 days’ holiday plus bank holidays (increasing with service), holiday buy/sell scheme, paid parking and regular team social events.
This is a rare opportunity to take genuine ownership of a thriving service line within a respected North West consultancy, big enough to handle major projects, small enough to move fast. If you are motivated by leadership responsibility, long-term equity and building something sustainable, this could be the defining role in your career.
