Are you a project manager with strong technical grounding in mechanical systems and industrial installations? We’re looking for a driven and detail-oriented Project Manager, for a leading client in Sandy, to take ownership of high-value engineering projects from post-sale through to successful installation and commissioning.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Managing turnkey engineering projects, including process and mechanical installations ranging from small-scale (£50k) to multi-million-pound systems.

• Translating commercial and technical scopes from the sales team into full P&IDs (piping & instrumentation diagrams), working with internal design resources.

• Creating and managing project BOMs, installation plans, and any necessary export paperwork.

• Specifying pumps, valves, pipework and associated equipment appropriate to machinery requirements and site conditions.

• Overseeing Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) and Pre-Delivery Inspections (PDI) to ensure quality and compliance with customer specifications.

• Acting as the key point of contact between internal teams (engineering, design, manufacturing, installation) and the client.

• Communicating and managing project timelines, risks, and delays effectively with all stakeholders.

• Collaborating closely with a growing team of project engineers and designers throughout the delivery phase.

• Occasional travel to UK customer sites (approx. once/month) and international sites (up to 4 weeks/year) during key project milestones.

What We’re Looking For

• Experience managing complex engineering projects – ideally within process, mechanical, or industrial machinery sectors.

• A solid technical understanding of mechanical components including pumps, valves, pipe runs, and related systems.

• Confident in reading and creating P&IDs and technical engineering specifications.

• Strong project management skills – planning, resourcing, budgeting, and client communication.

• Experience with FAT, commissioning, or site-based installs is a plus.

• Ability to liaise cross-functionally with design, engineering, manufacturing, and clients.

Why Join Them?

• Be part of a technically accomplished and collaborative project engineering delivery team.

• Work on varied, high-impact projects with a diverse client base.

• Enjoy a role that blends office-based technical planning with occasional site engagement.
