I'm looking for multiple Project Controls professionals (at all experience levels) to support the successful delivery of high-value capital projects across the UK infrastructure and construction sectors. These roles offer the opportunity to work on complex, large-scale programmes spanning transport, energy, utilities, defence, and major building projects.

If you have strong expertise in one or more Project Controls disciplines and are passionate about driving performance, governance, and project certainty, I would like to hear from you.

Opportunities Available In:
  • Planning & Scheduling
  • Cost Management & Commercial Controls
  • Risk & Opportunity Management
  • Performance & Reporting Management
  • Integrated Project Controls/PMO
Key Responsibilities:
  • Develop, maintain, and manage integrated project schedules (Primavera P6, MSP or similar)
  • Lead cost forecasting, budgeting, and earned value management processes
  • Facilitate quantitative and qualitative risk assessments and manage risk registers
  • Produce accurate and insightful performance reports for senior stakeholders
  • Support governance, assurance, and controls frameworks across programmes
  • Work closely with project managers, commercial teams, and client stakeholders
  • Contribute to continuous improvement of project controls processes and standards
About You:
  • Proven experience in one or more Project Controls disciplines
  • Experience working on high-value capital projects (£50m+ desirable)
  • Strong understanding of UK infrastructure and construction environments
  • Working knowledge of NEC Contracts and/or JCT Contracts
  • Strong analytical, reporting, and stakeholder engagement skills
  • Proficiency in relevant tools (e.g., Primavera P6, MSP, Power BI, Excel, risk tools)
  • Willingness to travel to client and site locations across the UK
  • Professional accreditation (APM, RICS, PMI or similar) is advantageous but not essential.

Offer:
  • Exposure to nationally significant infrastructure programmes
  • Competitive salary and benefits package
  • Flexible working arrangements where project requirements allow

  • Opportunity to work within high-performing, collaborative project teams

This is a chance to play a key role in delivering some of the UK's most complex and impactful capital projects. You will be part of a growing, dynamic team where your expertise directly contributes to successful project outcomes.

The salary banding is £40,000 (junior-level) to £90,000 (director-level) DOE and offers a very good benefits package too.

You will be more than likely working on projects in the North East and Yorkshire but may have to travel/work outside of this scope from time to time depending on project demand.
