Senior Project Manager

Wigan Competitive Permanent

Job Reference: 891649

Senior Project Manager 
Location: Wigan (Office based)
Salary: Competitive Salary

The Business
We are a fast-growing engineering business developing and manufacturing modular process packages for the water and industrial sectors. Our technology is patented, proven, and already embedded into major UK frameworks.
This is not a corporate environment. We are an owner-led, entrepreneurial business where senior people get involved, solve problems, and help build the operation as it scales.

The Role
This is a senior technical and operational role, responsible for taking customer requirements and turning them into fully engineered, manufactured packages.

The role is focused on:
  • Design control (SOLIDWORKS experience essential)
  • Manufacturing coordination
  • Customer and partner interface
  • End-to-end project delivery from concept to shipped product
Key Responsibilities
  • Own engineering projects from customer enquiry through to finished build
  • Translate customer and partner requirements into engineered solutions
  • Produce and manage CAD designs, layouts, and technical documentation
  • Coordinate manufacturing, suppliers, and internal resources
  • Act as the main technical interface with customers and partners
  • Manage multiple projects in parallel in a fast moving environment
  • Support development of internal processes as the business scales
What We Are Looking For
  • Degree-qualified Mechanical Engineer (or with accreditations)
  • Strong CAD capability (SolidWorks or equivalent)
  • Experience in engineered products or packaged systems
  • Comfortable in small, entrepreneurial businesses
  • Strong communicator who can deal with customers and suppliers
  • Organised, adaptable, and happy wearing multiple hats
  • Water industry experience is preferred but not essential.
Why This Role
  • Real ownership of projects, not just a slice of them
  • Direct impact on a growing business with guaranteed long-term growth
  • No corporate politics or layers of management
  • Opportunity to shape how the engineering function evolves
