Project Manager

Project and Development Services – Corporate Solutions (Chennai/India)

What this job involves:

Steering projects at the helm

To be stationed in (region/country), you’ll work side-by-side with the senior project manager to ensure the success of a project—from its pre-design phase to its completion. You’ll assemble and lead various project teams; monitoring the teams’ performance, and bringing out the best in every team member. We achieve our biggest success when working together, so clear communication is key, as is collaboration and team work. You’re also in charge of creating the organisational structure, project objectives and working procedures for the teams.

Your project management skills will also be of great value, as you set up clear project cost plans and allot sufficient budget to achieve optimal results and meet the company’s target profits.

Furthermore, you’ll oversee negotiations, analyses and promotions of quality control systems.

Core to our reputation is our strong focus on health & safety and on sustainability, and you’ll be expected to keep these front-of-mind at all times.

Boosting client relationships

Helping clients achieve success is what JLL does best—and your role is an extension of this tradition. To effectively help our clients, you’ll identify their needs and constraints, and work around these challenges.  Of course, as you represent our clients’ best interests, you’ll also keep in mind JLL’s own business needs—and, thereby, strive to achieve an ideal balance between the two.

You’ll need to work well with a range of stakeholders, leading from the front while also taking the time to understand their point of view.  You also have to effectively represent our clients throughout the whole duration of the projects. Do you have an enormous talent for promotion? If so, this is the perfect job for you, as you’ll also represent and promote the company throughout the project.
