This company offers a range of strong benefits that make it an excellent place to build a long term career:
We are seeking an experienced Project Manager to lead a significant paving and earthwork package valued at £50m within a major infrastructure programme scheduled to complete in 2027. The wider project is valued at £180m and will continue to operate in a live environment until August. Following this period, there will be a concentrated three month window to deliver £80m worth of works. This will be the peak activity period, and your leadership will be essential to keep the package progressing smoothly and safely.
