Project Manager - Construction Tech

Randstad (Schweiz) AG; Manchester; Hybrid; GBP 40,000 - 80,000; Full time

Job description

This role is for our portfolio company - Artic

We’re on a mission to actively bring down the costs of new homes, schools and hospitals for people like you.

Traditional construction is slow, expensive, and one of the world’s biggest polluters. But pre-manufactured construction—where components are built in factories and assembled rapidly on construction sites—changes the game.

Artic’s breakthrough technology reads architectural drawings to accelerate the delivery of construction projects—reducing the total carbon footprint by 45%.

Backed by top investors like Pi Labs, Blackhorn Ventures, and Executives from Apple & Google, we’re scaling fast across the US, UK, and Middle East. Our founders have built and scaled multiple market-leading companies in manufacturing, healthcare and construction—meaning we’re not another out-of-touch tech startup.

Join Artic. Put your skills to work to bring down the true cost of construction across the world.

You’ll lead the digital transformation journey for clients, driving the adoption of our tools while building tailored upskilling programs that turn users into champions.

You’ll work closely with internal teams—Product, Sales, Engineering—and directly with clients to implement solutions that transform how they build. You’ll oversee the full implementation process, managing timelines and coordinating stakeholders to ensure smooth rollouts. Along the way, you’ll design and deliver training programs that are engaging, empowering, and ensure long-term success.

This isn’t just about rolling out software; it’s about leading change, managing impactful projects, inspiring people, and making a real difference in the future of construction.

Responsibilities:

• Creating structured programmes – Develop and manage implementation programmes that drive the adoption of Artic’s software.
• Managing details with precision – Ensure every aspect of implementation, training, and client engagement is carefully planned and executed.

• Crafting clear and effective communication – Write concise, structured documentation, reports, and guides that simplify complex concepts.
• Tracking progress and optimising programmes – Use data and feedback to measure success, refine processes, and continuously improve outcomes.
• Collaborating cross-functionally – Work alongside Product and Engineering to refine solutions based on client feedback.

Requirements

• Strong written and verbal communicator.
• Ready for an exciting challenging and rewarding journey at a start-up backed by world-leading investors.
• Personal transport with a full UK driving license (preferred but not required).

Travel

With customers in both the US and EU, travel is part of this role. At peak times you can expect to be away for 7-10 days at a time at customer sites in the US. With shorter stays in the UK and Europe. There would be multiple stays through the course of each 12-16 week implementation.

Benefits
