Director of Project Management — Build Something That's Yours
Dublin | Up to €150,000 + Benefits & Equity
This isn't a job.
It's a launchpad.
An established Chartered consultancy is creating a brand-new Project Management division — and they want a leader, not an employee, to build it.
They're looking for someone ambitious enough to take ownership, commercially sharp enough to grow it, and credible enough to win work at the highest level. If you've ever wanted to run your own division with the backing, brand, and infrastructure of an already successful business, this is that opportunity.
The Opportunity
You'll step in as Director of Project Management with a clear mandate:
build, lead, and scale a new division from the ground up.
You'll have real authority, strategic influence, and a seat at leadership level. This is a rare chance to shape a business unit in your own image — team, clients, systems, and growth strategy.
You won't just deliver projects.
You'll build a business.
What You'll Be Leading
You'll take full control across:
Project delivery & client strategy
Business development & pipeline growth
Hiring and building your own team
Financial performance & profitability
Operational systems & governance
Brand positioning and market presence
From winning work… to delivering it… to growing the team that executes it.
What Our Client Are Looking For
You're likely already operating at Associate Director / Director level within a consultancy and thinking:
"I could build something better if I had the platform."
You'll need:
10+ years' consultancy experience in Ireland
Strong client network and commercial instincts
Proven delivery of PM services on Irish projects
Leadership experience and team-building ability
Confidence managing fees, margins, and growth strategy
Chartership (SCSI / RICS) is advantageous, but mindset and track record matter more.
What's On Offer
Salary up to €150,000
Equity potential
Bonus structure
Leadership position reporting to board level
Full autonomy to build your division
Backing of an established, respected consultancy
Why This Role Is Different
Most senior roles offer responsibility.
Very few offer ownership.
This is for someone who wants:
Strategic influence
Long-term upside
A legacy role
And the chance to say "I built that."
If you've been waiting for the right platform to step into a true leadership role — this is it.
