What You Will Be Doing

You will be an integral part of our Workplace Department, working closely with our Directors while leading your own project teams and acting as the primary client contact across a portfolio of commercial office projects. You will lead the setup and delivery of multiple fit-out projects across the region, taking overall responsibility from initial due diligence and project definition through to procurement, construction, handover and close-out. This will include design and procurement management, programme management, client reporting, site observation, contract administration and overall client relationship management.

As the senior client lead, you will also support the wider account management of the portfolio, ensuring a consistent approach across projects and that PMK’s delivery model, governance processes and reporting standards are embedded across the teams. Given the regional nature of the portfolio, the role may require international travel to support project delivery and client requirements.

Working alongside our commercial and design teams, you will lead and coordinate external consultants, contractors and client stakeholders throughout both the pre- and post-contract phases. You will chair key project meetings, maintain clear ownership of actions and decisions, and manage the flow of information between all parties.

You will have overall ownership of project programmes, key deliverables and project controls, proactively identifying risks and driving the team to resolution. During construction, you will oversee site progress and quality, manage contractual and programme matters, and ensure the client has clear and timely visibility of project status, risks, decisions and required actions.
