A unique opportunity for a Senior Project Manager
Take ownership of a major buildings package on one of the UK’s most significant infrastructure programmes.
Joining at ECI / PCSA stage means you will have the opportunity to shape the buildings package, rather than simply inherit it. You will have genuine influence over design, procurement, sequencing, and the delivery strategy.
The buildings package will encompass:
- Maintenance Building
- Control Centre
- Welfare and office facility
- Various other ancillary buildings
The overall project is estimated at £800M. Construction is planned to complete in 2031.
This is a highly visible role requiring strong leadership, commercial awareness, and the ability to drive performance across multiple contractors and technical disciplines.
You will be responsible for:
- Leading the safe, timely, and commercially successful delivery of the buildings package
- Managing design development, construction, commissioning, and handover
- Coordinating interfaces across civils, structures, building services, rail systems, and operational teams
- Managing programme, cost, risk, change, and package performance
- Leading contractors, consultants, and internal project teams
- Maintaining strong relationships with the client and key stakeholders
- Driving quality, buildability, and technical assurance throughout delivery
- Identifying issues early and implementing practical solutions
