Project Director – LIFE SCIENCES / HEALTHCARE / PHARMA

We’re on the hunt for a Project Director who doesn’t just manage jobs — they own them.

This is not one for the “learning on the job” crowd. We’re talking major buildscomplex projects, and razor-sharp delivery — in sectors where precision isn’t just preferred, it’s life-critical. Think high-spec Pharma, mission-critical Healthcare, and cutting-edge Life Sciences facilities.

Our client is one of Ireland’s elite Tier 1 Contractors, known for delivering landmark projects across the country. Their bar is high. Their standards? Higher. They need someone who’s been there, done it, and has the €100M+ builds to prove it.

  • Taking full command of major construction projects from pre-con to handover.
  • Leading large, multidisciplinary teams — and doing it with authority, vision, and zero fluff.
  • Managing high-spec, regulated builds to strict timelines and budgets.
  • Collaborating with client-side stakeholders who expect top-class professionalism.
  • Driving quality, safety, and delivery like a force of nature.

✅ What You’ll Need:

  • 10+ years’ experience in senior project leadership roles.
  • A portfolio of large-scale Pharma / Healthcare / Life Science builds.
  • A deep understanding of GMP environments and the compliance-heavy world of regulated industries.
  • Real commercial acumen — you know how to make a project fly without blowing the budget.
  • Gravitas, confidence, and sharp communication — this isn’t a role for fence-sitters.

💰 What’s In It For You?

  • seriously competitive salary and full executive benefits package.
  • Access to Ireland’s most ambitious builds with a genuine industry leader.
  • The chance to shape landmark projects that actually matter.
  • A leadership role with full backing from a powerhouse contractor.
