Civil Project Manager

COMPANY OVERVIEW

Our client is a respected international contractor with a long track record of delivering complex civil engineering and infrastructure works across Europe. With a reputation built on technical capability and dependable delivery, they are trusted by public and private sector clients alike to take on schemes where engineering complexity, scale and programme certainty all matter.

The business has a strong and growing presence in Poland, where sustained investment in infrastructure, industrial and energy-related development continues to drive demand. Operating with the backing of a wider international group, they combine the resources and systems of a major organisation with the agility of a locally focused delivery team.

Off the back of a healthy forward order book, the company is strengthening its project leadership in Warsaw. This is a genuine growth hire, offering the chance to join at an important stage and take ownership of high-profile schemes from an early point in their lifecycle.

WORKING ENVIRONMENT & PROJECTS

You will join a capable, collaborative project team responsible for delivering significant civil works packages, which may include earthworks, foundations, structures, drainage, roads and associated infrastructure. Projects are typically large in scale and require close coordination between engineering, commercial, planning and site functions.

The culture is professional and delivery-focused, with a strong emphasis on safety, quality and getting things right first time. Project Managers are given real ownership of their schemes, supported by experienced senior leadership and well-established systems and processes.

You will gain exposure to the full project lifecycle, from pre-construction planning and design coordination through to construction, completion and handover, working alongside clients, designers, consultants and a broad subcontractor base. It is an environment that rewards initiative and offers excellent visibility for those looking to step up into senior leadership.

You will be backed by experienced leadership, strong systems and a pipeline of work that offers genuine longevity.
