  • Put in place and maintain the key project documents, such as plans, schedules, risk registers, and stakeholder maps.
  • Manage contracts and change, ideally under NEC.
  • Lead, guide, and develop your team, including Assistant Project Managers, and work closely with suppliers.
  • Keep clients informed, spot issues early, and champion quality, health and safety, and continuous improvement.

What you'll bring

  • Proven experience delivering infrastructure projects.
  • Confidence in stakeholder management, risk, planning, and commercial control.
  • Working knowledge of NEC contracts.
  • Comfort using project management tools and software.

Nice to have

What's in it for you

  • Support to deliver: you'll be backed by colleagues across the UK and our team in India.
  • Room to grow: you'll have a clear path from Project Manager to Senior or Principal, plus support with APM, PMI, or ICE membership and chartership.
  • Flexible working: an inclusive culture and a real commitment to your development.
