Project Manager
In the UK, the construction industry faces a double-edged sword – a growing demand for skilled construction Project Managers coupled with a shrinking pool of available talent. While there are currently an estimated 83,100 construction project managers in the UK, this number represents a significant decline from the 107,500 reported in Q4 of 2021.
This decline in available talent can be attributed to several factors. One reason is an aging workforce with many experienced project managers approaching retirement. Another factor is a lack of young people entering the construction field. The skills gap is impacting Project Manager roles and this is backed by 30% of project managers thinking the skills gap is only ‘getting worse and not improving’.
A bachelor's degree in construction management, civil engineering, architecture or a similar field provides a strong foundation in the technical aspects of construction. However, employers highly value hands-on experience. Ideally, you'll have several years working your way up from field engineer or project coordinator roles. This experience allows you to understand the intricacies of construction projects from the ground up.
Hiring a construction project manager brings a wealth of benefits. They manage costs, ensure efficient resource use and keep the project on schedule and budget. Their risk management skills minimise disruptions, while clear communication keeps everyone on the same page.
Construction Project Managers require a unique skillset. They must possess a strong foundation in construction fundamentals, building codes, and materials, while also excelling in project management, communication, and leadership. These professionals plan, budget, and schedule projects, ensuring they stay on track and within budget. Effective communication with clients, architects, engineers, and subcontractors is crucial.
