Project Manager

£24.9 - £28.8 per hourEstimated

Hybrid Working Project Manager Civil Engineering (Water Sector, Scotland)

We re working with a fast–growing, privately owned civil engineering contractor that has evolved from a small family business into a major name in Scottish infrastructure while keeping a genuine people–first culture at its core.

They re now looking for a high–performing Project Manager to lead the delivery of critical water infrastructure projects across Scotland.

The Opportunity

This is a hands–on leadership role where you ll take ownership of complex civil engineering schemes from start to finish. You ll be trusted to drive delivery across programme, commercial performance, and site execution working closely with site teams, clients, and supply chain partners.

Projects are within live operational environments, so confidence, communication, and calm decision–making are key.

What you ll bring
  • Proven Project Management experience in civil engineering
  • Strong background working with Scottish Water or within its delivery frameworks
  • Experience delivering live water infrastructure projects
  • Natural leadership ability with strong commercial awareness and stakeholder management

Bonus points if you ve worked on reservoirs or water–retaining structures.

Why this role stands out

This isn t just another contractor role it s a business that has scaled successfully without losing its identity.

They genuinely focus on:

  • Putting people first and supporting wellbeing
  • Investing in communities and future talent through outreach and engagement
  • Driving sustainability and reducing environmental impact in everything they deliver
  • Building long–term relationships, not transactional project wins

You ll have autonomy, trust, and visibility with the backing of a stable, growing business that continues to win and deliver major work.

Working pattern

Hybrid working split between site, office, and remote flexibility depending on project demands
