Job Description
Are you looking to leave a real mark on one of Somerset's most important infrastructure projects?
We are seeking a Project Manager with a rail background to drive a project through to completion in Bristol.
The Role
As Project Manager, you will take full responsibility for delivering a multi-disciplinary civils/construction project. The scheme includes significant structural and architectural elements such as doors, windows, roofing systems, and detailed internal fit-out packages. You'll be working in a live rail environment, navigating the demands of Network Rail while delivering a technically complex scheme on a historic, listed asset. That mix of operational pressure, heritage constraints, and detailed building work is where strong Project Managers stand out.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the end-to-end delivery of a major station enhancement project
- Manage complex shell, core, and fit-out packages
- Oversee installation of technical building components (doors, windows, roofing systems, etc.)
- Ensure works are delivered safely within a live rail environment
- Coordinate with key stakeholders, including Network Rail and heritage bodies
- Maintain programme, cost control, and quality assurance
- Drive compliance with rail industry standards and processes
About You
- Proven experience as a Project Manager in the infrastructure sector
- Strong building background (not purely civil engineering but in a rail environment)
- Experience working within a rail environment, ideally on station projects
- Good understanding of Network Rail processes and standards
- Experience delivering station enhancements and refurbishments
- Knowledge of working on or around listed buildings / heritage sites
- Comfortable managing technically complex packages and multiple interfaces
Why Join
- Opportunity to work on a landmark project in Bristol
- High-value, technically challenging scheme
- Collaborative environment with key industry stakeholders
- Strong pipeline of future infrastructure work
It's challenging, hands-on, and high-profile-the kind of project that sharpens your skills and seriously strengthens your CV.
