Spacey Design Manila. 219 P. Dela Cruz, Novaliches, Quezon City, 1116 Metro Manila, Philippines

Who We Are

Spacey Design Manila is a design and build partner specializing in experiential activations, commercial fit-outs, and custom fabrication.

We bridge the gap between design and execution, turning concepts into structures that are precise, durable, and ready for real-world deployment.

We operate on a gold standard mindset—where speed, accuracy, and build quality are non-negotiable. Every project is delivered with the discipline and detail required for live environments, tight timelines, and high-visibility brands.


The Role

We are looking for a Project Management Unit Head who will lead our team of Project Managers and own the delivery of every project in the pipeline. You will set the systems, standards, and pace that ensure all projects—not just one—are delivered on time, within budget, and at Spacey's gold standard quality.


What You'll Be Doing

  • Lead, coach, and manage the Project Management team, setting clear expectations and accountability
  • Oversee the full project portfolio, ensuring every project is on track from turnover to closeout
  • Assign projects and allocate manpower, resources, and schedules across simultaneous builds
  • Establish and enforce project management systems, SOPs, templates, and reporting standards
  • Review and approve project timelines, budgets, and execution plans before rollout
  • Monitor project costs and margins, flagging overruns early and driving corrective action
  • Serve as the escalation point for critical client, site, and production issues
  • Align with Design, Estimating, Purchasing, and Production heads on capacity, priorities, and handoffs
  • Conduct site visits and quality checks on high-visibility or high-risk projects
  • Track team performance through KPIs and present portfolio status reports to management
  • Hire, onboard, and develop Project Managers to build a stronger bench


What We're Looking For

  • 7+ years of experience in project management, with at least 2–3 years leading a team of PMs or engineers
  • Experience in events, activations, fit-outs, construction, or fabrication (preferred)
  • Proven track record of managing multiple projects and budgets at the same time
  • Strong grasp of production processes, site execution, and cost control
  • Ability to build systems and processes, not just follow them
  • Strong leadership, decision-making, and people management skills
  • Clear, confident communicator with clients and internal leadership


What Will Make You Stand Out

  • Experience running live event builds and ingress schedules at scale
  • A record of improving delivery speed, quality, or margins through better systems
  • Ability to develop PMs into leaders who own outcomes
  • Calm, decisive judgment when multiple projects hit pressure at once


Why Join Spacey

  • Lead the delivery engine of a fast-growing design and build company
  • Shape the systems and standards of the team as we scale
  • Work on high-visibility, fast-paced projects
  • Be part of a team that values execution, speed, and accountability



Our Standard

We don't just manage projects—we build teams that deliver them. We don't wait for issues—we put systems in place so they don't happen.

If you prefer overseeing from a distance, this is not the role. If you want to lead people, own the portfolio, and raise the standard—we'd like to meet you.
