An established and growing independent construction consultancy is looking to appoint a Director of Project Management to lead the next stage of development of its Project Management offering. This is a rare opportunity to build and lead a dedicated Project Management function within an already successful consultancy. You will have the autonomy to shape the function - from its people and processes through to its clients, commercial strategy and future direction. Project Management is already an established service within the business, with existing commissions, client relationships and internal delivery capability in place. The next step is to appoint a senior specialist who can take ownership of the service and develop it into a defined, standalone offering. The Business The company is a leading independent construction consultancy with an established presence in the UK property and construction market. The business provides a range of project and commercial advisory services to developers, investors, private clients and organisations across the built environment. Projects span a diverse range of sectors, including: Residential and mixed-use development High-end residential Commercial Education Healthcare Industrial and logistics The consultancy has built its reputation around providing a highly personal, senior-led service and has developed a strong base of repeat and referred clients. Despite continued growth, it retains the agility and entrepreneurial culture of an independent business, with senior individuals given genuine influence over its direction. The Role As Director of Project Management, you will take strategic and operational ownership of the PM service. Initially, the focus will be on working with the existing team and client base to establish the structure required for the next stage of growth. You will have genuine influence over the structure of the function, future recruitment, project delivery standards, target clients and sectors, and the wider commercial strategy. Your remit will include: Leading and developing the Project Management offering. Establishing best-practice processes, governance and reporting. Providing senior oversight across key PM commissions. Developing the existing internal Project Management capability. Building and developing a dedicated PM team as the service grows. Setting the professional and technical standards for the future PM team. Working closely with the wider leadership team on business strategy. Strengthening and expanding existing client relationships. Identifying and securing new Project Management opportunities. Developing the commercial strategy for the service. Helping position Project Management as a core standalone discipline within the consultancy. This is a hands-on leadership position. The successful individual will remain close to clients and projects while simultaneously developing the team, systems and infrastructure around them. For the right individual, this is an opportunity to build a business within a business – with the foundations already in place but genuine freedom to shape what comes next. About You This opportunity is likely to suit an established Director or Associate Director from a construction consultancy background who is ready for greater ownership and the opportunity to build a service. You will ideally bring: Strong consultancy-side Project Management experience. A track record of leading complex construction projects and multidisciplinary teams.

Excellent client and stakeholder management skills. Experience leading, mentoring and developing high-performing teams. Strong commercial awareness and an understanding of consultancy fee structures. The ability to establish best-practice PM processes, governance and reporting. Confidence developing existing client relationships and generating new opportunities. An entrepreneurial, accountable and commercially minded approach. * A commitment to professional excellence, integrity and continuous improvement. The business places significant value on professional standards and technical credibility. The incoming Director will be expected to bring a similar level of professional standing and industry recognition, while setting the benchmark for the future Project Management team. Most importantly, they are looking for someone who wants to create, lead and take ownership of something, rather than simply occupy a senior position within an established structure. Progression The appointment forms an important part of the consultancy's long-term growth plans. The successful individual will be given the mandate to establish Project Management as a significant standalone service, build a specialist team and take increasing responsibility for its commercial performance and strategic direction. As the function develops, so too will the scope, responsibility and influence of the role within the wider business. For someone who has reached a senior level within an established consultancy but wants greater autonomy, visibility and ownership, this offers a compelling next step. An established platform. A blank canvas for the PM function. And the autonomy to build it. For a confidential conversation and further information on the opportunity, please get in touch with Freya at Vertical Recruitment

Mindtrace is hiring a Senior Machine Learning Engineer to help expand the hardware and sensing capabilities behind its next generation of industrial inspection products. This person will explore, prototype, validate, and productize new inspection hardware approaches across cameras, sensors, optics, lighting, edge compute, and field-ready demo systems. The role is especially important as Mindtrace moves beyond standard 2D inspection toward richer sensing, more capable edge deployments, integrator-ready hardware platforms, and smart-factory quality intelligence. The ideal candidate is a practical hardware innovator: someone who can spot promising new technologies, build credible prototypes quickly, evaluate them rigorously, and turn the best ideas into repeatable systems that work outside the lab. • Design, prototype, and validate new industrial inspection hardware capabilities across 2D, 3D, advanced sensing, edge compute, and automated capture., • Scout and evaluate emerging cameras, sensors, lighting methods, optics, fixtures, embedded systems, and industrial compute platforms that could unlock new inspection use cases., • Build proof-of-concept rigs that test whether a new sensing or hardware approach can solve a real inspection problem better than existing methods., • Benchmark edge hardware, sensor throughput, acquisition reliability, and runtime options for real inspection workloads, including latency, memory use, thermal behaviour, maintainability, and deployment constraints., • Support ONNX Runtime, TensorRT, OpenVINO, quantization, and standard edge deployment profiles in collaboration with ML and software engineers., • Build and maintain portable innovation demos, including tabletop demo boxes, experimental sensor rigs, industrial camera setups, client-data capture paths, and field-ready prototypes., • Investigate image quality failure modes such as blur, glare, poor focus, lighting variation, camera shift, calibration drift, and fixture inconsistency., • Work with integrators and cross-functional teams on plant-floor integration concerns, including PLC signals, trigger timing, robot pose, camera status, and industrial networking., • Produce clear documentation, setup guidance, test results, and recommendations that can be reused by deployment, sales, client, and product teams., • Help decide which new hardware, sensor, edge, and capture approaches deserve deeper product investment, pilot validation, or partner development., • Strong hands-on experience with industrial vision systems, inspection hardware, sensing platforms, robotics, or factory automation environments., • Practical knowledge of industrial cameras, lenses, lighting, working distance, field of view, depth of field, exposure, focus, triggering, calibration, and repeatable image capture., • Experience evaluating or deploying edge compute for computer vision workloads., • Strong Python fluency for prototyping, testing, automation, data capture, hardware evaluation, sensor integration, and benchmark tooling., • Ability to debug physical inspection systems end to end, from image acquisition through model runtime and system behaviour., • Familiarity with computer vision tooling such as OpenCV and common image-processing workflows., • Strong experimental discipline: controlled testing, clear metrics, repeatable benchmarks, and evidence-based recommendations., • Ability to turn ambiguous inspection challenges into practical hardware experiments, prototype plans, and clear build-versus-buy recommendations., • Ability to communicate clearly with ML engineers, software engineers, integrators, client teams, hardware partners, and commercial stakeholders., • Experience with advanced sensors such as laser line scanners, structured-light cameras, stereo/depth cameras, 3D profile sensors, high-speed cameras, smart cameras, hyperspectral, thermal, X-ray, acoustic, or related industrial sensing technologies., • Experience with ONNX Runtime, TensorRT, OpenVINO, model quantization, model export, or edge inference optimization., • C or C++ experience for lower-level hardware, camera SDK, edge runtime, or performance-sensitive integration work., • PLC, HMI, EtherNet/IP, Profinet, SCADA, robot, or controls integration experience., • Experience with FANUC, Universal Robots, robot-mounted vision, EOAT, trigger timing, pose repeatability, or automated inspection cells., • Experience in automotive, weld inspection, battery manufacturing, precision assembly, metrology, NDT, or quality inspection., • Familiarity with industrial camera ecosystems such as Basler, Cognex, Keyence, LMI, SICK, Teledyne, IDS, Sony industrial cameras, or similar., • Experience with hardware evaluation, vendor selection, rapid prototyping, proof-of-concept development, or technology scouting., • Experience designing demo rigs, test fixtures, portable inspection stations, trade-show systems, or customer-facing technical prototypes. The strongest candidates will be practical builders who are excited by new hardware capability as much as by robust deployment. They do not need to be deep ML researchers, but they should understand enough computer vision and model deployment to know how sensing choices, acquisition quality, runtime constraints, and factory conditions affect inspection performance. They should be comfortable moving from a vague opportunity to a credible prototype: identifying the right sensor or edge platform to try, building the first rig, measuring whether it works, and explaining what would be required to turn it into a repeatable product capability. This person should be able to answer questions like: • What sensing setup is most likely to solve this inspection problem?, • Which new sensor, lighting method, edge device, or capture architecture should we test next?, • Is this failure caused by the model, the image, the lighting, the optics, the fixture, the runtime, or the deployment environment?, • Which edge hardware profile is credible for this workload?, • What evidence would convince us that this hardware idea is ready for a pilot?, • Can this demo or prototype survive being shown repeatedly outside the lab? We are an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender identity or Veteran status. #J-18808-Ljbffr

An established and growing independent construction consultancy is looking to appoint a Director of Project Management to lead the next stage of development of its Project Management offering. This is a rare opportunity to build and lead a dedicated Project Management function within an already successful consultancy. You will have the autonomy to shape the function - from its people and processes through to its clients, commercial strategy and future direction. Project Management is already an established service within the business, with existing commissions, client relationships and internal delivery capability in place. The next step is to appoint a senior specialist who can take ownership of the service and develop it into a defined, standalone offering. The Business The company is a leading independent construction consultancy with an established presence in the UK property and construction market. The business provides a range of project and commercial advisory services to developers, investors, private clients and organisations across the built environment. Projects span a diverse range of sectors, including: • Residential and mixed-use development, • High-end residential, • Commercial, • Education, • Healthcare, • Industrial and logistics The consultancy has built its reputation around providing a highly personal, senior-led service and has developed a strong base of repeat and referred clients. Despite continued growth, it retains the agility and entrepreneurial culture of an independent business, with senior individuals given genuine influence over its direction. The Role As Director of Project Management, you will take strategic and operational ownership of the PM service. Initially, the focus will be on working with the existing team and client base to establish the structure required for the next stage of growth. You will have genuine influence over the structure of the function, future recruitment, project delivery standards, target clients and sectors, and the wider commercial strategy. Your remit will include: • Leading and developing the Project Management offering., • Establishing best-practice processes, governance and reporting., • Providing senior oversight across key PM commissions., • Developing the existing internal Project Management capability., • Building and developing a dedicated PM team as the service grows., • Setting the professional and technical standards for the future PM team., • Working closely with the wider leadership team on business strategy., • Strengthening and expanding existing client relationships., • Identifying and securing new Project Management opportunities., • Developing the commercial strategy for the service., • Helping position Project Management as a core standalone discipline within the consultancy. This is a hands-on leadership position. The successful individual will remain close to clients and projects while simultaneously developing the team, systems and infrastructure around them. For the right individual, this is an opportunity to build a business within a business – with the foundations already in place but genuine freedom to shape what comes next. About You This opportunity is likely to suit an established Director or Associate Director from a construction consultancy background who is ready for greater ownership and the opportunity to build a service. You will ideally bring: • Strong consultancy-side Project Management experience., • A track record of leading complex construction projects and multidisciplinary teams., • Chartered status or recognised professional accreditation, such as MRICS, MAPM or equivalent, reflecting the high professional and technical standards of the wider business., • Excellent client and stakeholder management skills., • Experience leading, mentoring and developing high-performing teams., • Strong commercial awareness and an understanding of consultancy fee structures., • The ability to establish best-practice PM processes, governance and reporting., • Confidence developing existing client relationships and generating new opportunities., • An entrepreneurial, accountable and commercially minded approach., • A commitment to professional excellence, integrity and continuous improvement. The business places significant value on professional standards and technical credibility. The incoming Director will be expected to bring a similar level of professional standing and industry recognition, while setting the benchmark for the future Project Management team. Most importantly, they are looking for someone who wants to create, lead and take ownership of something, rather than simply occupy a senior position within an established structure. Progression The appointment forms an important part of the consultancy's long-term growth plans. The successful individual will be given the mandate to establish Project Management as a significant standalone service, build a specialist team and take increasing responsibility for its commercial performance and strategic direction. As the function develops, so too will the scope, responsibility and influence of the role within the wider business. For someone who has reached a senior level within an established consultancy but wants greater autonomy, visibility and ownership, this offers a compelling next step. An established platform. A blank canvas for the PM function. And the autonomy to build it. For a confidential conversation and further information on the opportunity, please get in touch with Freya at Vertical Recruitment
