Nature and Love Project Manager

The Horniman Museum and Gardens is seeking to appoint a Project Manager as part of the team being brought together to redevelop parts of our Gardens and the Natural History Galleries. The total budget for the project, including fees but excluding VAT, is circa £8,900,000. The project is due for completion in early 2026 (dependent on the availability of funding) and is the next phase of a long-term strategic plan to widen access, public facilities and increase exhibition space within the Horniman.

The Project Manager will be required to assist the Horniman Museum and Gardens with the appointment of the Lead Consultants for the Architecture Design, Landscape Design, Exhibition Design and Cost Consultant (to be managed by the Horniman). We would expect them to develop tender documentation, check SQ responses, support the shortlist and interview process and prepare tender reports

The Project Manager would be responsible for preparing and maintaining an integrated project programme for the project. It is important to note that this project is dependent on the outcome of a National Lottery Heritage Fund (NLHF) Stage 1 application which was submitted in August 2021. The result of this application will be known at the beginning of December. Development of the Nature + Love project will only progress if this funding bid is successful.

• Three case studies, with references, of projects of a similar nature and scale undertaken within the last 10 years • Your outline approach and methodology for project management throughout the project • Your outline approach and relevant experience of working with sustainability considerations in mind. • Names and CV's of the proposed Project Partner/Director and key support team members including qualifications and experience • Short method statement outlining the approach to the successful project delivery and approach to resource management • Health and safety, environmental and equal opportunities policies • Company accounts for the last three years • Confirmation of insurances held • Completed anti-fraud and bribery statement • Company history • A staged fee proposal including expenses for Project Management services based on the Project Timing outline at 4.3 of the Brief.
