Project Manager

Are you an experienced Project Manager with an engineering background, looking for a hands-on role where you can take ownership of complex technical projects?

We’re working with an established engineering business looking for a Project Manager to join a multidisciplinary team.

This is a varied Project Manager role sitting at the heart of engineering, customers, suppliers and senior management, coordinating projects across electronics, mechanical, software and sustaining engineering.

The Role

As Project Manager , you’ll take projects from initial definition through to completion, managing:

  • Project scope, budgets, schedules and resources.
  • Risks, dependencies, changes and project priorities.
  • Multidisciplinary engineering teams across mechanical, electronics and software.
  • Design, development, testing and verification activities.
  • Customer and supplier relationships.
  • Engineering changes, product upgrades and sustaining projects.
  • Project reporting, governance and stakeholder communication.
  • Commercial control, estimates and resource planning.

This Project Manager position is not a purely administrative PM role — you’ll need enough technical understanding to challenge assumptions, identify dependencies, facilitate decisions and keep projects moving.

About You

We’re looking for a technically credible Project Manager with:

  • Proven experience managing engineering or product development projects.
  • Experience working across multiple engineering disciplines.
  • Strong planning, organisation and project management skills.
  • The ability to manage multiple projects/workstreams simultaneously.
  • Strong communication skills with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Commercial awareness and experience managing project costs.
  • A hands-on, proactive and collaborative approach.

An engineering degree or formal project management qualification would be advantageous, alongside experience in electronics, mechanical engineering, software, embedded systems or electromechanical products.

What's on Offer?

  • Health Care Cash Plan
  • Company Bonus
  • Enhanced Holiday
  • A varied, hands-on Project Manager role.
  • Significant autonomy and responsibility.
  • The opportunity to work across engineering, product development and customer projects.
  • A collaborative environment where you can genuinely influence project delivery.

If you're an experienced Project Manager, Engineering Project Manager, Senior Project Engineer or Project Lead looking for a role where you can combine project ownership with technical understanding, we'd love to hear from you.
