Person Specification
There is no requirement for construction-specific experience, although remote project management experience will be useful.
Very importantly you will have a proven aptitude for rapid understanding of web-based applications (including of course the full MS suite) and being an ‘Excel geek’ will win you a Golden Ticket.
As the successful candidate, you will be able to demonstrate initiative and the ability to work in a structured and task-oriented fashion. Whilst full training will be given, the position will not be ‘overly-managed’ requiring ownership and a determined attitude for delivery.
This is an opportunity to join a driven and professional team, own your tasks, and be challenged in a fun and positive environment.
