You probably want to know what’s involved.

• The main role of a Project Manager is to manage the overall planning and delivery of construction projects on behalf of your clients. You and your team will ensure the project is delivered within budget and completed on time. 
• These projects might range from a high-rise residential tower or university building through to a complex, mixed-use development or commercial office block. And everything in between. Depending on the size of the project, its construction value or the stage of construction cycle in which you’re involved, you might be working on just one of these or across multiple projects at the same time. 
• Key aspects of your daily work will include organising logistics, providing contract advice and bringing project teams together across various stages of the construction cycle. 
•  As a Project Manager, it will be your responsibility as a team to effectively manage any risks of delay to the project. You will ensure to keep the client and other stakeholders working on the scheme updated on progress throughout the project.
