What You’ll Do
- Own and lead integrated project controls across a major programme (cost, schedule, risk, reporting)
- Drive earned value and performance management systems that support executive-level decision-making
- Build and manage a high-performing controls team, championing quality, consistency, and insight
- Collaborate with commercial, planning, and delivery teams to align controls with programme strategy
- Deliver controls governance and reporting in line with NEC contract frameworks and best practice
✅ What You Bring
- Experience managing project controls on major infrastructure, transport, or rail programmes (£500m+)
- Deep knowledge of cost control, planning (Primavera P6), risk analysis, and data-led reporting (Power BI a plus)
- Consultancy mindset — confident engaging with clients and senior stakeholders at programme level
- Proven ability to manage, mentor, and grow teams in a dynamic delivery environment
- Experience with NEC3/NEC4 and working within structured governance frameworks
Why apply?
- Be part of a career-defining UK infrastructure programme
- Join a consultancy that invests in people, not just projects
- Competitive salary, performance bonus, and comprehensive benefits
- Long-term opportunity with strong pipeline and stability
- Flexible hybrid working — with a team culture built on collaboration and excellence
