Description
Position: Project Manager – Aluminium Façade Systems.
Location: Kampala, Uganda (office + on-site across projects in the region)
Experience Level: 2–5+ years in aluminium/glass/façade work
Type: Full-time.
About the Opportunity
Step up and own the full lifecycle of premium aluminium windows, doors, curtain walls, structural glazing, and architectural façades! We're a key player in East Africa's aluminium and glass sector, delivering precision-engineered solutions for modern buildings, high-rises, and landmark developments.
If you're a natural leader who excels at juggling timelines, budgets, teams, and clients — while ensuring every detail from design review to flawless handover shines — this is your platform to drive multiple exciting projects and accelerate your career in a high-demand niche.
- Key Responsibilities
- Take full ownership of façade projects from contract award through to successful handover and client satisfaction.
- Develop and manage detailed project plans, schedules, resource allocation, and budgets using tools like MS Project.
- Coordinate seamlessly with architects, consultants, clients, subcontractors, fabricators, and on-site teams to align on goals and resolve challenges fast.
- Review and approve shop drawings, material submittals, technical specifications, and fabrication details (with hands-on AutoCAD interpretation as needed).
- Oversee end-to-end execution: procurement of aluminium/glass materials, fabrication quality, site installation, and integration of curtain walls, glazing, and accessories.
- Monitor project progress, control costs, identify and mitigate risks, manage variations/change orders, and keep everything on track and within budget.
- Ensure strict compliance with quality standards, HSE protocols, safety regulations, and client specifications through regular inspections, testing, snagging, and reporting.
- Lead site teams, conduct progress meetings, prepare comprehensive reports, and deliver clear documentation for every milestone.
- Drive problem-solving on-site while maintaining strong client relationships and delivering projects that exceed expectations. - What We're Looking For
- Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering, Construction Management, Architecture, or a closely related field.
- 2–5+ years of proven experience managing aluminium façade curtain wall, glazing, or related architectural systems projects (hands-on involvement in execution is a big plus).
- Solid technical foundation: Ability to interpret drawings/specs; proficient in AutoCAD (for review/detailing) and MS Project (for scheduling and tracking).
- Strong project management toolkit: Budget oversight, cost control, risk management, resource planning, and variation handling.
- Excellent leadership, communication, and coordination skills — you'll rally teams, negotiate with stakeholders, and keep everyone aligned.
- Detail-oriented with a sharp eye for quality, safety, and on-time delivery in fast-paced site environments.
- Valid driving license and readiness for site travel as projects demand.
- Why Join Us?
- Lead transformative projects that shape Kampala and beyond — from sleek commercial towers to premium residential facades.
- Competitive salary, performance bonuses, and incentives tied to project success.
- Rapid career progression in a growing, specialized industry with high demand for skilled leaders.
- Exposure to advanced aluminium and glazing technologies in a collaborative, results-driven team.
- Chance to mentor and grow with a large cohort of talented engineers on multiple sites.
