The Role & Impact

This is a high‑profile project within a strong and varied pipeline. We are seeking a Project Manager with some experience of public sector projects, who understands the importance of governance, coordination, and statutory compliance, and who is confident leading teams in a structured delivery environment.

You will be supported by an experienced commercial and technical team, while taking ownership of day‑to‑day project delivery.

Key elements of the role include:

• Leading delivery of a €20m public sector school project from construction through to handover
• Managing programme, coordination, and commercial performance on site
• Overseeing statutory processes including BCAR requirements and relevant Department standards, with internal support where required
• Acting as the main point of contact with the Design Team, Client representatives, and other stakeholders
• Managing reporting, documentation, and quality processes appropriate to a public sector project
• Setting a strong standard for health, safety, and quality across the site team

The Wider Pipeline

While the Blackpool school project is the immediate priority, Townmore has a strong and secure southern portfolio, including:

• An 85‑unit residential development in Midleton (with scope to scale beyond 300 units)
• A 150‑unit residential project in Clonmel
• Upcoming Primary Care Centre and additional Nursing Home projects

This role offers long‑term career opportunity across both public and private sector projects in the region. xcfaprz

What You Will Bring

• Solid experience delivering construction projects in Ireland
• Some experience working on public sector projects, or exposure to public works environments
• Strong organisational, coordination, and leadership skills
• A proactive approach to programme, cost, and quality management
• Confidence engaging with consultants, subcontractors, and clients
• A collaborative, solutions‑focused mindset

Package

• Fully negotiable salary, dependent on experience
• Fully expensed, leased company vehicle (renewed every three years), including fuel card, toll tag, servicing, and tyres
• Vehicle type aligned to seniority (passenger vehicle for this level)
• Pension: 3% from day one, rising to 5% post‑probation, and 6% and 7% after years 5 and 6 respectively
• Health insurance allowance (€1,500)
• Discretionary bonus
• Death in service benefit (up to 3 x gross salary)

This is an excellent opportunity to take ownership of a high‑profile project, while playing a key role in Townmore’s continued expansion in the southern region.
