The Company

Our client is a leading Irish Tier 1 main contractor delivering some of the country’s most high-profile commercial, residential and mixed-use developments. Their projects typically range from €50m to €200m , built to exacting quality and safety standards, and supported by strong in-house design, engineering and commercial teams.

They are recognised for a progressive, collaborative culture and a genuine commitment to safety, innovation and continuous improvement. With a major Leinster pipeline secured into the coming years, they are now strengthening their senior delivery team with an experienced Contracts Manager.


The Role – Contracts Manager

Based on live projects across Leinster, you will take full ownership of delivery from pre-construction through to handover. This is a senior leadership position where you’ll drive programme, cost, quality and safety performance while managing multiple sites and teams.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead project delivery teams with full accountability for build, programme and budget.

  • Ensure projects are delivered on time, within cost targets and to specification.

  • Partner closely with design and technical teams to support coordinated installation and buildability.

  • Drive a best-in-class safety culture through robust safe-working practices and site leadership.

  • Implement operational improvements to increase efficiency and consistency across sites.

  • Plan and control project resourcing (labour, subcontractors, plant and logistics).

  • Develop and retain high-performing teams, mentoring future leaders across projects.

  • Maintain strong stakeholder relationships with clients, consultants and supply chain partners.


About You
  • Proven Contracts Manager background with a main contractor on large-scale builds.

  • 10 years’ industry experience delivering complex projects.

  • Strong knowledge of construction contracts, legal/commercial principles and project controls.

  • Excellent negotiation, analytical and problem-solving skills.

  • Confident leading multi-disciplinary teams across several sites simultaneously.

  • Clear communicator with strong client-facing ability.

  • Full driving licence and right to work in Ireland.


What’s on Offer
  • Salary: €125,000 (DOE)

  • Package Includes:

    • Company Vehicle

    • Pension

    • Performance Bonus

    • Private Healthcare

    • Laptop & Phone

    • Life Insurance & Income Protection

    • CPD & structured progression

    • Lifestyle benefits (EAP, bike-to-work, social club, etc.)


Why Apply?

This is a genuine senior leadership opportunity with a contractor delivering some of Leinster’s most important developments. You’ll have real autonomy, strong in-house support, and a long pipeline that offers stability and progression into senior operational roles.
