We are seeking an experienced Municipal Project Manager to lead the planning and delivery of complex public-sector projects from initial concept through to completion. The successful candidate will manage projects that support the improvement, maintenance and development of local services, infrastructure and community facilities, ensuring that work is delivered safely, efficiently, within budget and to agreed quality standards.

Responsibilities will include preparing project plans, programmes, budgets, risk registers and reporting arrangements; coordinating internal teams, consultants, contractors and external stakeholders; and monitoring progress against agreed milestones, costs and performance measures. You will oversee procurement and contract management activities, contribute to business cases and funding applications, and ensure that projects comply with relevant legislation, regulatory requirements, health and safety standards and established governance procedures. The role will also involve identifying and managing risks, resolving issues, approving variations where appropriate, and providing clear written and verbal updates to senior leaders, elected representatives and community stakeholders. A strong focus on consultation, accessibility and positive public engagement will be essential.

You will bring demonstrable experience of managing capital, regeneration, infrastructure or service improvement projects, ideally within a local government, public-sector or similarly regulated environment. A recognised project management qualification, such as PRINCE2, APM or an equivalent professional accreditation, would be advantageous. You should be confident managing budgets, schedules, suppliers and multidisciplinary teams, with the ability to balance competing priorities and make sound, evidence-based decisions. Excellent communication, negotiation and report-writing skills are required, together with strong financial awareness, attention to detail and a practical approach to problem-solving. The ability to build effective relationships, work collaboratively and maintain momentum in a politically sensitive environment will be important. A commitment to public value, transparency, equality and continuous improvement is expected.
