The Project is just starting and whilst the some of the initial enquiries have been made and certain suppliers are on board, the bulk of the fit out packages have yet to be compiled and let. The Contractor is seeking a Project Manager to oversee all aspects of the fit out reporting to the Contracts Director on this 22 month programme. The end use is residential with a split between private ownership and affordable accommodation.

The Company is a well established Contractor with a good volume of substantial projects both on the ground and in the pipeline.
