Job description

Heritage of London Trust (HOLT) restores the buildings and monuments that tell the story of the city and the people who live within it. Founded over 40 years ago, our mission is to rescue characterful and neglected historic sites all across the city. We focus on sites at risk in areas of least investment - in local communities that most need our help - ensuring a sustainable future for every project we work on. To date, we have restored 850 sites across London.

About the Role:

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced and proactive project manager with a passion for London’s built heritage. The Head of Projects will oversee the delivery of our restoration projects across the capital, ensuring they meet our high standards and achieve maximum public benefit.

The role involves overseeing the full lifecycle of restoration projects, from initial research and site identification to overseeing conservation work and successful project completion. Importantly, you will work closely with local authorities, conservation experts and community organisations to influence and build local commitment to conservation projects.

 

Key Responsibilities:

  • Oversee heritage restoration projects from inception to completion.
  • Identify at-risk historic sites and develop a pipeline of new projects.
  •  Manage budgets and project timelines, ensuring successful and efficient delivery.
  • Build strong relationships with a wide range of stakeholders to support project success.
  • Select and collaborate with contractors, conservators, and heritage specialists.
  • Conduct regular site visits to assess progress and adherence to project specifications.
  • Report on project outcomes and key learnings to the Director and Board of Trustees.

About you:

We are looking for a candidate with the following skills and experience:

  • Demonstrated project management experience in the built environment, heritage, or construction sectors.
  • Highly organised with the ability to handle multiple projects and meet deadlines efficiently.
  • Strong stakeholder management and relationship-building skills.
  • A detail-oriented approach.
  • Highly collaborative whilst being equally comfortable working autonomously.
  • A problem-solving mindset with a proactive attitude.
  • A passion for community engagement, inclusivity, and maximising public benefit.
  • A willingness to travel frequently across London for site visits and meetings.

Why Join Us?

This is an incredibly fun, engaging and rewarding role, working alongside committed colleagues, overseeing a range of projects that have the power to make a significant social impact in communities across London.

We currently work a hybrid model from our fantastic co-working offices at Fivefields in Victoria, however as this role project manages a portfolio of up to 40 projects at different stages, with circa 15 active projects at any given time, the Head of Projects will be out and about visiting our projects and programmes across London on a regular basis. This role should plan to be working in our office 3 days per week, with site visits out across London throughout the week.
