Dear Hiring Manager,
Brandon James Ltd's search for a Project Manager within its Bristol construction consultancy aligns closely with the work I have been building towards. Having delivered residential and PBSA schemes through both pre and post-contract stages — including Employer's Agent duties and full programme management — I am confident I can take ownership of projects from feasibility to handover with the autonomy this role demands.
My background in construction consultancy has seen me coordinate multi-disciplinary teams, chair project meetings, and maintain client relationships across schemes ranging from 80-unit residential conversions to 300-bed student accommodation developments. I am currently progressing towards MRICS and am keen to benefit from the APC support your consultancy is known for.
