Kyle Jackson

I am an experienced Project Manager, Senior Contracts Manager, Structural Steel Supervisor and time-served Fabricator/Welder with over 10 years' experience delivering structural steel, architectural metalwork, glazing systems and complex construction projects across the UK. I have a proven track record of managing projects from tender through to completion, overseeing budgets, programmes, subcontractors and client relationships while ensuring delivery is safe, on programme, within budget and to the highest quality standards. I am highly experienced in producing RAMS, interpreting engineering drawings, coordinating multi-disciplinary teams and maintaining strict Health & Safety compliance.

Combining a practical trade background with strong commercial awareness and leadership skills, I am equally comfortable managing high-value projects, leading site teams and building lasting relationships with clients, engineers, suppliers and other key stakeholders. I am willing to travel and work nationwide.
