Dapital Projects TeamLeader / Deputy Director of Estates
tba Date of Job Description: May 2019 Job Purpose
The Construction Project Manager will provide Project Management services, assisting the Deputy Director in managing the capital, minor works and campus improvement programmes of the University. Generally, for projects in excess of £1m there is always a full external project management and design team. In these instances, the Construction PM will fulfil the role of Estate Client Representative, coordinating all aspects of University project inputs. Reporting to the Capital Projects Team leader she or he will sometimes be responsible for providing a complete project management service for smaller building and engineering related projects from inception to completion. The Construction Project Manager will also be required to provide in-house project management and end-user representation on smaller projects, together with briefing and feasibility advice on all projects to ensure the delivery of best value for money and consistent quality on projects ranging from £5,000 up to £10 million (most projects will be between £50K and £1m construction cost although there will be a small number of significantly larger projects for which there will be a full external project management and design team). In the immediate term, this role will provide Estate Client Representative services on a £20m refurbishment project in the Art School, which is currently on site. Projects emanate from Faculties, Departments, Estates and from the University’s Estate Vision. The Construction Project Manager role will include: • Developing some of these initial concepts to the point where they can be evaluated for practical and financial purposes and subsequently delivering them. • Overseeing the production of feasibility studies by external teams on larger projects, and subsequently overseeing their delivery in the role of Estates Client Representative. • Providing and leading the provision of the highest level of project management, design advice and customer service, to both internal and external customers. Roles & Responsibilities These are the key responsibilities of the job: on occasion you may be required to undertake other duties commensurate with your grade. Due to the level of the role, the incumbent will need to work flexibly in order to accommodate the scope of the role and to prioritise and achieve initiatives, tasks and timelines. Please note: Project delivery is at the core of everything that Estates does as a department. All staff are required to assist with project delivery in any way that the Director of Estates may reasonably request.
