Buckingham, United Kingdom Jonathan Lee Recruitment Full time

If you're after a Project Manager role that actually means something, here it is. You'll lead programmes that move from concept to production - not PowerPoint projects that never leave the spreadsheet. You'll be trusted to run the show: keep suppliers in check, manage budgets that don't magically grow, and make sure deadlines don't drift into next year. In short - deliver projects properly. What You'll Do Take ownership of cross‑functional automotive projects from concept through to launch Act as the main customer contact - the person who makes things happen, not excuses Keep budgets tight and forecasts honest (prototypes, tooling, costs, the lot) Build and maintain realistic timing plans and hold people accountable to them Spot risks early, fix them fast, and don't hide the bad news Oversee pre‑production builds and coordinate manufacturing and engineering activities What You'll Bring Proven automotive project management experience, ideally within a Tier 1 supplier A technical degree or equivalent hands‑on background in engineering or manufacturing Practical project management know‑how (PRINCE2, MS Project etc. are fine, but common sense is better) The ability to communicate clearly - with engineers, customers, and senior stakeholders A calm head, a bit of backbone, and the ability to keep projects moving when pressure's on The Company A long‑established, forward‑thinking automotive manufacturer supplying premium OEMs. They care about doing things properly - quality engineering, smart project delivery, and long‑term partnerships that actually work. Location Buckingham - within easy reach of Milton Keynes, Bicester, Banbury, Aylesbury, and the surrounding area. Interested?
