Project Manager

Crawford & Co Surveyors are looking for an organised, proactive Project Manager to take retrofit projects from initial instruction through to completion.

You'll be the central point of contact between project administrators, Retrofit Coordinators, Retrofit Assessors, surveyors, contractors and installers — making sure everyone knows what's required and when, actions get followed up, and projects keep moving to agreed timescales.

You don't need to know the retrofit process from day one. We're looking for strong project management skills and a willingness to learn the technical and compliance side; full training and support are provided.

What You'll Do

Manage and coordinate multiple projects at different stages, from instruction to completion

Act as the key point of contact for clients, contractors and stakeholders, keeping everyone informed and coordinating information between them

Build and maintain project programmes and action lists

Track progress against milestones and deadlines, and chase outstanding actions until they're closed

Review project information to spot issues early, escalate where needed and find practical solutions

Manage changes, delays and outstanding issues as they arise

Keep project records and documentation accurate, organised and readily available, supporting the team on compliance

Organise meetings, calls and project updates, and monitor the quality of works where required

Report to management on progress, risks and outstanding actions

Upsell Crawford & Co services where opportunities arise

About You

Essential:

Experience in project management, project coordination or a similar role

Excellent organisational, time-management and prioritisation skills, with strong attention to detail

Confident, clear communication with clients, contractors and other stakeholders

The ability to run several projects and competing deadlines at once, and to own them start to finish

A proactive approach — you follow things up rather than waiting to be asked, and you spot when something is going off track

Strong problem-solving skills and good IT and administrative ability

Comfortable working independently in a fast-paced, growing business, while contributing to the wider team

Willing and able to pick up new technical information

Desirable:

Retrofit experience, or knowledge of PAS 2035 and the construction/surveying industry
