JLL empowers you to shape a brighter way.

Our people at JLL and JLL Technologies are shaping the future of real estate for a better world by combining world class services, advisory, and technology for our clients. We are committed to hiring the best, most talented people and empowering them to thrive, grow meaningful careers, and find a place where they belong. Whether you’ve got deep experience in commercial real estate, skilled trades, or technology, or you’re looking to apply your relevant experience to a new industry, join our team as we help shape a brighter way forward.

What this job involves:

Supporting the team
You will be working side-by-side with the team to ensure the success of a project – from its initiation to design phase to construction and to completion. The projects are many and varied, including variations in project dollar value and complexity. You will be exposed to Fit-outs & Refurbishments for both Tenants and Landlords in Commercial, Retail, Industrial, Hospitality, and Education.

Managing multiple projects concurrently
Do you enjoy multi-tasking? Several projects are on-going at various stages hence you will have to coordinate with multiple vendors to ensure no downtime during works. You will be involved from preparing project specifications and project timeline, preparing tender or bid documents, vendor procurement, as well as weekly project reports and updates to be submitted to the stakeholders. Delivering projects within the established budgets and timelines is key!

Sounds like you?

Our successful Project Managers:

• Have prior experience in Project Management in a Consultancy environment, or as a Contractor.
• Engage confidently with internal and external stakeholders and see things from their perspective.
• Are driven to succeed and love achieving challenging goals.
• Bring a structured and organised approach to everything they do.
• Communicate and collaborate to achieve success.
• Thrive under pressure and deal effectively with tight deadlines and high expectations.

To apply you need to be:

Client-centric problem solver
We employ talent from a wide range of backgrounds; typically you should have a degree in a relevant field, and/or around three to six years’ experience in design, construction, project management in interior fit-out projects for multinational clients. It would be excellent if you have a strong background in all aspects of interior fit-out management—including management on schedule, quality, cost and risk management, and negotiation, to name a few. Your expertise in surveying a client’s basic needs, completing commercial assessments, and preparing PM proposals will also be put to the test. Your quickness in understanding and dealing with a situation will be indispensable especially in carrying out value engineering, buildability analysis, critical reviews of design and documentation.

Business savvy and action-oriented
To excel in this role, you should have a high level of understanding and technical expertise in business. We deliver projects that help our clients succeed as well as help JLL achieve our business and financial goals.

Are you well versed in project products, systems, processes, tools, and best practices? Can you handle the site operations no matter how complex it may be?

Likewise, you should have a great sense of urgency when it comes to solving problems, improving products or services, finding new markets, and implementing new strategies. You are resilient and can deal effectively with competing priorities and tight deadlines. You should know how to negotiate to generate risk-assessed solutions and how to handle ambiguities.

A great communicator with superb organisational skills
Do you have what it takes to lead and motivate your project team members? Are you capable of leading by example and fostering a creative environment? We achieve our biggest success when working together, so clear communication is key, as is collaboration and teamwork.

A structured and organised approach with an eye for detail is also crucial, as is being tech-savvy. As the digital leader in project management, we use a range of technology platforms to deliver our projects.
