The Opportunity
We're recruiting for a Project Manager - Capital Works to join a well-established team delivering projects across two flag ship hospitals in London.
This is a cradle-to-grave role, leading variations and capital works within a live, healthcare environments subject to the Building Safety Act.
Project values typically range from £50k-£600k, with larger schemes up to £1m-£2m+, and occasional major projects (e.g. £12m A&E redevelopment).
What Makes This Role Different
This isn't about being the most technical person in the room.
It's about being the one who can:
- Lead the design process end-to-end (RIBA 1-7)
- Challenge and manage consultants effectively
- Navigate the complexity of live hospital environments and multiple stakeholders
- Deliver projects professionally, not reactively
The Role
- Lead capital works and variation projects from concept through to completion
- Take ownership of design team leadership, ensuring progress through all RIBA stages
- Act as the key interface between Trust, SPV, consultants, and delivery teams
- Manage projects within live hospital settings, balancing programme, logistics, and patient impact
- Oversee procurement, contractor performance, and delivery on site
- Ensure compliance with CDM Regulations, Building Safety Act, and golden thread principles
- Produce clear reporting on programme, risks, and performance
- Contribute to a more structured, professional project delivery approach across the contract
The Environment
- Hospital 1 - Major trauma/A&E site, three high-rise towers (16 storeys), fast-paced and complex
- Hospital 2 - Specialist cancer centre, more planned works, heritage considerations
- Potential future work across additional sites within the Trust
You'll be working across both, so adaptability is key.
What We're Looking For
- Strong experience delivering projects in complex environments (healthcare, PFI, large estates, or similar)
- Proven ability to lead design teams through RIBA stages 1-7
- Understanding of the Building Safety Act (direct experience ideal, but not essential)
- Solid working knowledge of CDM regulations and duty holder responsibilities
- Comfortable managing multiple stakeholders (client, SPV, consultants, contractors)
- Broad technical understanding (Mech or Elec), without needing to be a specialist
- Personable, professional, and collaborative - able to build trust with clients
The Team & Culture
- Small but growing team (SPM + APMs), with clear plans to expand
- Strong client relationships already in place, this role builds on that
- Work-hard, flexible culture, autonomy trusted, not micromanaged
- Opportunity to shape how projects are delivered as the contract evolves
Salary & Benefits
- Up to £70,000 per annum
- £5k Car or car allowance (including electric/hybrid options)
- 27 days holiday + bank holidays
- Private healthcare
- Pension (up to 7-9% employer contribution)
- Overtime or time off in lieu (where applicable)
- Flexible working (typically 1-2 days from home depending on project activity)
Location
This role requires regular presence on-site in Central/East London.
Candidates should be within a reasonable commuting distance, some early site access and live project delivery make this important.
