Head Of Project Delivery

Overview

You will lead all aspects of project delivery from contract award through to completion, handover, and aftercare — ensuring projects are delivered safely, on programme, within budget, and to the highest quality standards.

• Providing leadership and direction to Contracts Managers and site teams
• Driving programme performance and operational consistency across projects
• Working closely with the Commercial Manager to ensure contractual and commercial obligations are effectively managed
• Supporting pre-construction with technical input around buildability, value engineering, and delivery strategy
• Maintaining and strengthening client and stakeholder relationships to support repeat business

This is a pivotal senior leadership role within a well-established contractor that balances stability with ambition. You will have genuine influence over operational strategy, team development, and the ongoing growth of the business. Importantly, this role offers a clear and defined progression plan to Construction Director within an agreed timeframe. The pathway is structured, achievable, and aligned with the company's succession planning — making this a genuine career-defining opportunity rather than just a step sideways
