  • Drive large site teams to deliver on programme, cost, and quality targets.

  • Work closely with the Site Safety Officer to ensure best-in-class HSEQ performance.


About You
  • Degree-qualified in Engineering, Construction Management, or similar.

  • 5 years’ Project Management experience, ideally with a main contractor.

  • Proven track record delivering medium-to-large scale projects across sectors such as pharma, industrial, commercial, education, healthcare, or data centres.

  • Strong knowledge of project planning systems (ASTA or MS Project).

  • Commercially astute with experience managing budgets, procurement, and programme risk.

  • Excellent ability to analyse and interpret contractual documents.

  • Strong leadership and communication skills, capable of driving diverse teams.

  • Highly organised, detail-focused, and adaptable in changing environments.

  • Services and/or structural steel experience an advantage.

  • Full driving licence required; Safepass and Manual Handling desirable.

  • Salary: €95,000 (DOE)

  • Package Includes:

    • Company Vehicle / Allowance

    • Pension Scheme

    • Annual Bonus

    • Private Healthcare

    • CPD and structured professional development

    • Long-term Limerick project pipeline

    • Clear progression into Senior PM / Contracts Manager roles
