Building a sustainable tomorrow
The Ferrovial BAM Joint Venture has a successful history of delivering critical infrastructure for the UK on time and to budget together in joint venture partnership. They first worked together in 2010 as BFK, delivering three Crossrail contracts, including the longest stretch of tunnelling works between Royal Oak and Farringdon and Farringdon Station, the first central station to be completed on the Elizabeth Line. The team is also delivering the Silvertown Tunnel project together in East London and has been delivering excellence at each stage of HS2, such as Fusion JV for the Enabling Works packages, EKFB for the central Main Works Contract and now delivering the track infrastructure across the entire HS2 route.
We are now recruiting for a Configuration Manager to join the HS2 Track infrastructure project at the initial design phase which will run concurrently with the completion of main works contracts, which are now at their peak. The team operate under a collaborative Rail Systems Alliance structure, designed to manage interfaces and resolve any program conflicts. The members will work together on design, access, resources, and logistics to achieve shared goals for cost and schedule.
The Configuration Manager plays a critical role in ensuring that the track slab system is delivered in accordance with approved designs, standards, and requirements, while maintaining strict control over changes and interfaces. This is a project office-based role based at either London, Euston or Birmingham, Snow Hill.
Making Possible
The Configuration Manager is responsible for establishing, implementing, and maintaining configuration management processes across the project. This ensures that what is designed, approved, and built remains consistent, traceable, and compliant throughout the lifecycle of the asset.
