This role is vital in shaping the environments where healthcare is delivered. As a Project Manager, you will play a key role in creating spaces that are safe, modern and supportive for patients, staff and visitors alike.

Every project you deliver, whether it is the refurbishment of a ward, the upgrade of critical infrastructure systems, or the creation of new clinical facilities, will have a direct and lasting impact on the experience of those who use our hospital services.

We are looking for an individual who thrives on bringing structure and clarity to complex projects, enjoys working collaboratively with multidisciplinary and clinical teams, and is motivated by delivering tangible outcomes that make a real difference. This is a rewarding opportunity to contribute to a high-profile programme of work that will support the continued delivery of safe and effective patient care across the Trust.

The post holder will be responsible for ensuring that projects are managed effectively to provide the highest standards of service delivery within the resources available, while maintaining compliance with all relevant legislation, codes of practice and governance procedures.

In periods where the post holder is not actively engaged in capital project delivery, they will support the Operational Lead for RAAC in the maintenance, development and improvement of the Trust estate. This will include contributing to initiatives that ensure the hospital environment remains safe, compliant and fit for purpose, supporting the delivery of high-quality patient care.
