If you've spent your career delivering project controls on programmes that actually matter β€” the kind that run into the billions and reshape the UK's infrastructure β€” this one is worth 2 minutes of your time. I'm working exclusively on a Project Controls Director appointment for a leading capital delivery organisation operating across some of the UK's most significant programmes in defence, rail, aviation, infrastructure, and water.

What the role involves:

  • Full ownership of the project controls function across a major programme portfolio
  • Leading and developing a high-performing team of planners, cost managers, risk engineers and BI analysts
  • Board-level stakeholder management β€” translating performance data into decisions
