Project Manager — Site / Construction
Real Estate / Property Development
Location: [City / Site]
- Reports To: Engineering Head
- Experience: 8-12 years
About Us
We are a growing, structured real estate development organization that believes good governance and clean processes are what make a company durable. We build our functions to run on discipline and clarity — and our sites on measured, well-documented execution.
About The Role
We are looking for an experienced Site / Construction Project Manager to lead one of our projects, end to end. Reporting to the Engineering Head, you will own the project from planning through execution — the programme, the budget tracking, the contractors, the quality, and the safety — and you will turn approved drawings and budgets into a completed project.
This is a hands-on site leadership role with real planning depth. You will build the execution plan and track cost against budget, run the construction programme, contribute technical input to contractor pre-qualification and onboarding, hold contractors to their commitments, enforce quality and safety, and certify work and bills honestly. You will be a recommender and certifier — you plan, certify, and recommend — while capital approvals, commercial terms, and contract award sit with Engineering, Procurement, and senior management. We value Project Managers who run sites through structure and documentation, not improvisation.
If you know real estate construction planning and execution deeply and take pride in delivering a project on time, on budget, on quality, and on record, this role is for you.
What You'll Own
- Planning & budgeting — the execution plan, programme, and cost tracking against budget.
- Site execution — day-to-day construction as per approved drawings and BOQ.
- The schedule — milestone tracking and slippage recovery.
- Contract finalisation support — technical input to contractor PQ, shortlisting, and onboarding.
- Contractors — performance, deployment, and accountability to scope and quality.
- Quality & safety — specification compliance, rework reduction, and a safe site.
- Measurement & certification — honest verification of quantities and RA bills.
- The site team — guiding Site Engineers and Supervisors with clear, disciplined direction.
What We're Looking For
- Bachelor's degree / Diploma in Civil Engineering or equivalent.
- 8-12 years of site / construction experience in real estate or building projects.
- Proven experience running a project site — planning, schedule, contractors, quality, and safety.
- Strong project planning and programme management ability, with budget and cost-tracking experience.
- Strong command of construction methods, drawings, BOQ, and site measurement.
- Exposure to contractor pre-qualification, capability assessment, and onboarding.
- Sound understanding of contractor billing, RA bill certification, and variations.
- Working knowledge of construction ERP systems (e.g. Farvision or similar) for indents and billing.
- Firm on quality and safety, and disciplined about documentation and reporting.
- Strong leadership of site teams and the ability to hold contractors accountable.
- Organized, structured, and honest under delivery pressure.
WHY JOIN US
- Full site ownership — lead one project end to end, with a clear mandate.
- Clear structure — defined authority and boundaries; you certify and recommend, with approvals well placed.
- Governance-driven culture — measured execution, clean documentation, no informal pressure.
- Strong systems — ERP-driven processes that support disciplined site management.
Growth — scope to grow with the organization as the project portfolio expands
