Stretford, United Kingdom Walker Sime Full time

Assistant Project Manager

Location: Manchester (Hybrid Working)

Team: Project Management – Buildings Sector


Let’s Build the Future Together at Walker Sime


Looking for a role where you can really make your mark? Fancy being part of a team that’s shaping communities, delivering exciting projects, and having some fun along the way? Well, you’re in the right place


We’re Walker Sime, a construction consultancy that’s all about doing things differently—and doing them well. Right now, we’re on the lookout for a passionate, driven Assistant Project Manager to join our awesome Project Management Team in the Buildings sector.


The Role


As our Assistant Project Manager, you’ll dive into some fantastic projects that are making a real difference, from residential developments and community spaces to cutting-edge commercial builds and more. You’ll pick up loads of experience along the way, working on projects that genuinely excite you.


Here’s What You’ll be Doing:


  • Teaming up with Senior Project Managers to help deliver projects that make us (and our clients) proud.
  • Owning your piece of the action—managing workstreams or even smaller projects, with full support from the team.
  • Visiting project sites across the North (a bit of travel adds to the adventure, right?).
  • Getting stuck into contracts like NEC and JCT, helping us keep things running smoothly.


What We’re Looking For:


We’re all about finding the right people for the right role, so if you’ve got the following, we’d love to hear from you:

  • Some experience across project stages—if you know your way around RIBA design stages, planning processes, or on-site management, even better
  • A knack for working well with people—clients, teammates, stakeholders, you name it.
  • A bit of familiarity with NEC and JCT contracts (or at least a willingness to learn).
  • A background in consultancy or contracting—bonus points if you’ve worked in the buildings sector already.
  • An enthusiasm to take on responsibility and run with it (don’t worry, we’ve got your back).


Why Walker Sime?


  • A Fun, Supportive, and Inclusive Workplace: We genuinely want you to enjoy coming to work. At Walker Sime, you’ll be part of a team that’s supportive, collaborative, and knows how to have a laugh while getting the job done.
  • Career Development That’s the Real Deal: We’re serious about helping you grow. Whether it’s training, mentoring, or giving you room to take on new challenges, we’re all about investing in your future. When we say we’ll support your development, we mean it.
  • Diversity and Inclusion: Whoever you are, wherever you’re from—if you’ve got the skills and the drive, we want to hear from you. We’re all about building a team that’s as diverse as the communities we work with. It’s not just a box-ticking thing; we truly value different perspectives and experiences because they make us stronger, smarter, and better at what we do.
