The role is offering the right individual an excellent opportunity to work with a reputable company with an excellent reputation. For the position of Contracts Manager, they are offering a competitive market salary and generous employment package.

Our client has been successfully building for over 40 years and covers a range of new build and refurbishment projects across two arms of the business (Construction and General works). They are now looking to recruit a Contracts Manager.

The role will involve close liaison with Site Managers, Quantity Surveyors, Estimators, sub-contractors, and clients to oversee the management of up to two to three projects. You will be putting together plans and estimates, including budgets and timescales, helping to prepare and present documents for tender, and handling variations within this.

You will need to be from a construction background, either a HNC/HND or BSc in the relevant construction field with a hunger to develop and progress your career. You must be able to demonstrate a very hands-on approach and have a strong work ethic.

Understanding of Excel and being mathematically astute is also key.

The role of Contracts Manager will generally require the candidate to negotiate and run his/her own projects, and the ability to carry out all required financial and contractual aspects of project management would be preferable.

The Contracts Manager will be the main point of contact on projects and will take the project through from pricing to completion, delivering safely, on time, and within budget.
