Join a Growing Fit-Out & Refurbishment Main Contractor with Genuine Career Progression

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an Assistant Construction Manager to join a fast-growing specialist contractor delivering high-quality fit-out and refurbishment projects across London.

This isn’t just another Assistant Construction Manager role. You’ll be joining a close-knit, ambitious team at an exciting stage of its growth, where you’ll have the opportunity to make a real impact, take on responsibility early, and build a long-term career as the business continues to expand.

With a strong pipeline of secured work and ambitious growth plans, this is the ideal opportunity for someone who wants more than just a job—they want to help shape the future of a business.

The Role

Working alongside experienced Construction and Project Managers, you’ll support the successful delivery of projects from pre-construction through to completion.

Projects range from £1m to £20m and include:

  • Commercial office fit-outs
  • Retail fit-outs
  • Hospitality projects
  • Public sector refurbishment schemes

You’ll gain exposure to every stage of project delivery while developing the skills and experience needed to progress into a Construction Manager position.

Key Responsibilities

  • Assist with the day-to-day management of construction projects.
  • Support programme management, procurement and subcontractor coordination.
  • Attend site meetings and client meetings.
  • Monitor project progress, quality and health & safety compliance.
  • Coordinate site teams and supply chain partners.
  • Assist with cost control, reporting and project administration.
  • Build strong relationships with clients, consultants and subcontractors.
  • Support the successful delivery of projects to programme, budget and quality expectations.

About You

We’re looking for someone with enthusiasm, ambition and the right attitude as much as experience.

You’ll ideally have:

  • Experience within construction, fit-out or refurbishment projects.
  • Exposure to commercial, retail, hospitality or public sector projects.
  • Strong organisational and communication skills.
  • A proactive, positive approach with a willingness to learn.
  • The confidence to build relationships with clients and project teams.
  • A collaborative mindset and genuine desire to be part of a growing business.

Most importantly, we’re looking for someone who enjoys working with people, takes pride in their work, and wants to build a long-term career within an ambitious and supportive team.

What’s on Offer?

  • Join a rapidly growing business with ambitious long-term plans.
  • Genuine opportunities for career progression as the business expands.
  • Work on varied, high-profile fit-out and refurbishment projects.
  • Hybrid working (2 days working from home).
  • Supportive, collaborative culture with a down-to-earth leadership team.
  • A business that values attitude, teamwork and long-term development over hierarchy.

If you’re looking for an opportunity where your contribution will be recognised, your career can progress quickly, and you’ll be part of a team that’s building something exciting, we’d love to hear from you.
