About The Role
The Precon / FEP Lead owns the front end of Volta's pipeline—the stage where sites become projects. You will take each opportunity from feasibility through front-end planning and into execution readiness, so that when a project team mobilises, it inherits a clear scope, a credible baseline, and a delivery strategy that works.
Sitting between development and delivery, you will coordinate design, procurement, project controls, and DSX input through the earliest phases, and run the stage gates that decide when a project is ready to build. As the pipeline grows, this role sets the pattern every future Volta project follows.
