Engineering Project Manager

Company: Elev8 Recruitment

Location: Colchester

Posted: May 5th, 2026

If you’re already running engineering projects but feel like you’re constantly chasing updates, firefighting delivery issues, or carrying the responsibility without the support, this could be a better setup.

This role offers something a lot of Project Managers are missing. A structured environment, clear ownership, and a business where projects are properly supported rather than patched together.

You’ll be joining a growing engineering company delivering complex mechanical systems into industrial environments across the UK. The work is technically detailed, customer-facing and properly project-led.

The office itself is modern, open and well set up, with a genuinely friendly and supportive team. It’s a stable environment where people stay.

There is also exposure to a wider international group, which adds another dimension to the role.

Why this role is worth considering

What you’ll be doing

You’ll take full ownership of projects from contract handover through to final delivery.

What they’re looking for

This role suits someone already operating as a Project Manager in an engineering environment.

This isn’t aimed at someone looking to step up. You’ll need to be comfortable already owning projects.

What's on offer

Flexibility on start/finish times, with the ability to bank hours and finish earlier on a Friday.

Alongside that, you get something harder to find. A role where project management is taken seriously and delivery is properly supported.

Next step

If you’re already in a Project Manager role and want a more structured environment where you can focus on delivery properly, apply or get in touch for more detail.
