Job description

Here is a chance to join an organically growing business with a strong (and profitable) trading history stretching back over 40 years.


As a Project Manager, you will take on responsibility for delivering the largest singular project they have ever undertaken as a business.


With a value of ~£30M, the project will involve the construction of four cofferdams, instillation of ~1000m of sheet piling and drainage diversion works. This is a highly complex, innovative and challenging in-land marine project that will ultimately protect a Site of Special Scientific Interest. It forms part of a much larger programme of work in the Renewable/Energy sector.


The project will be administered under an NEC option C contract, and it is a design and build project. Main construction works are due to start in March 2025.


This is a negotiated project, and the business is already being asked to price additional works.  This is a long-term opportunity for you to work in a fixed location for the next 4 – 5 years whilst delivering very niche and challenging projects.


To be successful in this position, it is thought that you will:
  • Be educated to HND or Degree (or equivalent) level in Civil Engineering
  • Ideally be IEng or CEng with the ICE (this is NOT essential; just a nice to have)
  • Hold demonstrable experience in delivering civil engineering projects as a number one, with construction values of £20M+
  • Be very familiar in working under the NEC form of contract

On offer is a salary of around £75,000 per annum and comes with a ~£8,000 car allowance, paid travel, matched contribution pension, accommodation and subsistence, profit share bonus and 25 days holiday
