About the job
🎯 Construction / Project Manager (known internally as Contracts Manager)
🌍 London, UK
🏛️ Based in London and out across our sites most days, with regular travel to Bristol and Brighton
🤝 Reporting to our Head of Projects & Facilities
Runway East. Redefining Office Spaces
At Runway East, we're on a mission to eliminate boring offices. Since 2014, we've created unique, flexible office spaces in London, Bristol, and Brighton for teams of 1-100, featuring everything from dogs on demand to our famous Friday drinks trolley. We offer great benefits, including private healthcare and team trips abroad, and we're a proud B Corp, committed to positive impact on the planet and people. With a strong brand and passionate customer base, we're ready to seize the opportunities presented by the evolving demand for flexible working.
Elevator Pitch: The Job
As our Contracts Manager, you’ll turn designs into great spaces. You’ll lead our in-house works team on refreshes and spruces across the portfolio, price jobs before we commit, plan who’s working where, make sure what’s designed is what gets built, and bring in the right subcontractors when we need specialist trades.
This role will suit a hands-on contracts manager from a smaller fit-out or refurbishment firm - someone used to running several jobs at once, pricing their own work and getting stuck in.
What you’ll be doing:
- Leading our works team on refreshes and spruces across London, Bristol and Brighton.
- Pricing jobs and tracking spend against budget.
- Working with our Design team to make sure designs can be built, then delivering them faithfully.
- Sourcing, vetting and recommending subcontractors for specialist packages.
- Running RAMS, permits and CDM paperwork so every site stays safe.
- Snagging and handing over clean, finished spaces.
