London, United Kingdom Cambridge Credentials Full time

Our consulting client's Major Projects team works with industry-leading organisations, helping them to solve some of the biggest challenges in infrastructure. They boast an impressive client base across the commercial and public sectors, delivering lasting results on projects and programmes which are household names.

They focus on providing clarity to Boards, Executives and SROs at major public and private sector organisations, on the delivery of their projects and programmes. This team works on some of the UK’s most strategically important programmes, and across all infrastructure sectors including transport, natural resources, energy, power and utilities, corporates, oil & gas, defence, health, housing & education.

On the back of continuing growth, they are once again investing in their team, which means you will be joining one of the fastest growing areas of the firm at a time of real significance.

The position:

This role is for an innovative professional at associate director level with strong major project and programme experience. This role will work alongside their existing team to use their lived experience of the full project and programme lifecycle in the construction industry and a blended procurement, commercial, engineering, delivery, and supply-chain acumen to solve complex problems.

You will be providing advice to a broad range of clients on many different matters, helping them to achieve successful outcomes through planning and implementing innovative and robust procurement and commercial interventions.

  • An excellent understanding of the construction market and project contexts, across the whole lifecycle of an asset.
  • Experience in developing and implementing procurement, supply chain and market management initiatives such as procurement strategies, alliancing agreements, market analysis, and modern methods of construction enablement.
  • A robust understanding of procurement law and regulations, with a demonstrable interest and understanding of procurement implications because of the UK’s exit from the European Union.
  • Familiarity with industry-standard contract forms such as the NEC suite and PPC2000 and a working understanding of contract law.
  • A good understanding of issues which impact project performance.
  • An ability to assess new situations and data quickly to provide a basis for developing an understanding of causal factors.
  • Ability to set out a clear approach to tackling a new challenge in the most efficient manner.
  • Clear, concise, fact-based reporting.
  • A relevant professional qualification, such as MCIPS or MRICS.

In addition to the above, experience in some of the following areas would also be of benefit to the candidate in the environment that they work in:

  • Project / programme management.
  • Project / programme controls.
  • Engineering or Design.
  • Earned value management.
  • Cost management, estimating and benchmarking.
  • Risk management.
  • Claims, disputes, and dispute avoidance.
  • Governance and control of projects.

The client facing role will also include the end to end lifecycle of managing client engagements, using Firm systems, for which comprehensive training is provided):

  • Management of project teams to deliver client engagements.
  • Financial management of engagements including budgeting, reporting, and invoicing processes.
  • Performance management and mentoring of junior employees.
