About the job

🎯 Contracts Manager

🌍 London, UK

🏛️ Based in London and out across our sites most days, with regular travel to Bristol and Brighton

🤝 Reporting to our Head of Projects & Facilities

Runway East. Redefining Office Spaces

At Runway East, we're on a mission to eliminate boring offices. Since 2014, we've created unique, flexible office spaces in London, Bristol, and Brighton for teams of 1-100, featuring everything from dogs on demand to our famous Friday drinks trolley. We offer great benefits, including private healthcare and team trips abroad, and we're a proud B Corp, committed to positive impact on the planet and people. With a strong brand and passionate customer base, we're ready to seize the opportunities presented by the evolving demand for flexible working.

Elevator Pitch: The Job

As our Contracts Manager, you’ll turn designs into great spaces. You’ll lead our in-house works team on refreshes and spruces across the portfolio, price jobs before we commit, plan who’s working where, make sure what’s designed is what gets built, and bring in the right subcontractors when we need specialist trades.

This role will suit a hands-on contracts manager from a smaller fit-out or refurbishment firm - someone used to running several jobs at once, pricing their own work and getting stuck in.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Leading our works team on refreshes and spruces across London, Bristol and Brighton.
  • Pricing jobs and tracking spend against budget.
  • Working with our Design team to make sure designs can be built, then delivering them faithfully.
  • Sourcing, vetting and recommending subcontractors for specialist packages.
  • Running RAMS, permits and CDM paperwork so every site stays safe.
  • Snagging and handing over clean, finished spaces.

Requirements

Who You Are:

  • An experienced contracts or works manager from commercial fit-out or refurbishment, ideally at a smaller firm where you’ve worn a few hats - as comfortable pricing and buying in subcontractors as you are running a site.
  • Confident pricing work from drawings and a site visit, with a good feel for what things should cost.
  • Used to running several live jobs at once and keeping a small team productive.
  • Well connected with reliable trades, and able to vet new subcontractors properly.
  • Strong on site safety, with SMSTS and CSCS cards.
  • Respected on site - you set high standards and hold people to them.
  • Organised, clear and proactive, so people always know where things stand.

Benefits

Our Benefits

We believe in taking care of our team members and offer a range of benefits to support your well-being and professional development. As a valued member of our team, you will enjoy:

  • Time Off: 31 days including bank holidays 🏖️, plus an extra day for every year at Runway East 🎉. We also give you your birthday off 🎂 (because no one should work on their birthday) and extra time off over the Christmas break 🎄.
  • Wellbeing: Private health & dental, gym discounts 🏋️‍♂️, mental health support 🧠, and a Bike2Work scheme 🚲.
  • Growth: personal development budget 📚 and learning resources.
  • Community: Two workdays per year for charitable activities 🌍, team outings 🎉, and epic annual trips (Faro, Barcelona, Rhodes, Vilnius, and more!) 🌟.

Our Commitment to Inclusivity

We celebrate diversity and believe it strengthens our community. We welcome people from all backgrounds, identities, and experiences. What matters most to us is your spirit and passion. If you need specific access support, let us know—we’re here to help.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
