London, Greater London, United Kingdom Laminar Projects Full time
Clever Construction Engineers and Project Managers

Are you a bit tired of the standard old-fashioned way of doing things in the construction industry?

Are you a construction engineer aka section engineer/sub agent/agent/package manager/project manager (jeez they have lots of names don't they)?

Do you get deep satisfaction from making things run more efficiently using a good dose of common sense and maybe a bit of technology?

Have you always cared about the importance of proper planning and the connection between the schedule and the real day-to-day delivery of the job?

Have you ever wanted to work a bit more flexibly but still be hands-on in construction and improving the industry?

Sounds like a dream. Well, it isn't, it is quite real

Read on

We are Laminar Projects

If you have already heard about us, you are probably reading this because you are tired of the typical old-fashioned and chaotic ways of doing things in construction. But in case you haven't; we are a high-end construction project management consultancy and also a construction management tech developer. Improving construction strengthens the very foundation of human civilisation.(Watch our short film about it)

As a consultancy, we are focused on genuinely upgrading the way construction projects are delivered. We bring control and clarity to projects using a pragmatic mix of the latest technology, our own processes, and a big dose of common sense.

We then take the deep understanding of the projects we work on and all of our spare revenue to develop construction management software products that anyone can use to deliver their projects better. Our tech team are building a full suite of products one module at a time – kind of like office 365 but for construction management. (Check out Shape, our construction management tech and watch this video about what we are doing)

The core of all this is our true secret sauce; people. We only recruit the very best both in capability and personality. We are deeply focused on designing a new type of organization that is optimised for the flourishing of the people in the team first and foremost. People that join us develop fast as a whole person in ways they never imagined. (Read more about our vision and mission)

This approach has allowed us to grow from just 2 people in 2017 to over 160 today and we are still very much at the beginning Joining us isn't just some "job", it is a transformative educational experience. We challenge you to be your best self in all aspects of life.

Any role that you start with at Laminar should be seen only as a starting point. Our fast growth means that there are many diverse and interesting challenges available and it is up to you to guide yourself into whichever areas you are most interested in – we will enable it.

(Get to know us better by watching a few of our videos)

_________________________________________________________________________________________

4 core values for a good life

We believe a life of human flourishing is all about meaningful relationships with others and challenging yourself to create a positive impact. So our values reflect the 4 levels of relationships that each of us has:

Grow yourself – Your relationship with yourself

Care about people – Your relationship with others around you

Execute to greatness – Your relationship with your team

Build civilisation – Your relationship with humanity and the world

This goes much deeper but for the sake of brevity, we will keep the summary version

We enshrined our values in our vision:

We exist so that everyone in our team can thrive in a high-impact community that:

Connects us withmeaningful relationships

Inspires us to develop ourselves to become better humans

Empowers us to pursue our own learning adventures

We believe that, by first doing this, we can achieve the highest levels of value for the world.

And enable the achievement of our vision through our dual mission:

To fully digitise the construction of human civilisation

To create a new type of organisation that enables human flourishing while delivering a huge positive impact on society

________________________________________________________________________________________

The Role

Purpose of the role

A project is a set of activities delivered in sequence each being managed by different people/organisations. This is why the plan is always at the core of the project.

So the first thing you will learn to do is project planning. This means you will be at the core of the project devising strategies and tactics to improve the way the project is delivered. You will translate this knowledge into a logic-linked plan and analyse it using planning software. Then you will use this knowledge to help the teams understand what they need to prioritise to make the project as successful as possible. If the project were a ship you would be the navigator

Team

This role is part of our Project Management Consultancy which focuses on:

Understanding what the real problems of projects are

Implementing the best solutions to those problems

Developing scalable best practices, tools and technology

More specifically you will be part of our Project Planning Discipline Team who are industry leaders in the planning of complex construction projects. Your initial leader will be one of our planning discipline directors.

Your top 3 objectives

To make construction projects deliver to near perfection

To create scalable and repeatable solutions to common problems

To develop yourself and everyone around you

Your top 5 responsibilities

Own the plan: Own the project plan for one or more projects and ensure that the project is working to it effectively. Ensure delays are mitigated and managed commercially

Own the outcome: You may not be the project manager ultimately responsible for the results but you are sure as heck responsible for putting in your best effort to ensure the project's understanding and focus on the plan no matter how stubborn they are

Report and inform: Provide simple actionable reports to stakeholders at all levels that help them deliver their part of the project more efficiently and effectively

Make scalable solutions: Develop scalable and repeatable best practices and tools in collaboration with the team so that long-term impact is achieved

Develop everyone: Maximise the development of your team personally and professionally and educate our clients to improve as well. (even if you are junior you can help your leader develop too)

Your Capabilities

We train you in the full breadth of project management skills including planning, commercial, leadership, communication and technology so that you become an expert project leader equipped to transform any project you touch.

Must-Have (The fundamentals)

Mastery: Construction engineering background with at least 2+ years of experience on construction projects

Communication: Proficient communicator in written and verbal English

Leadership: You lead yourself proactively and lead others by asking the right questions and challenging them

Impact: A track record of making projects and organisations better beyond just doing the basics

Nice to Have (If you don't have it now you will be trained intensively after joining)

Mastery: Decent Excel skills and a strong interest in data, experience in project planning both software and principles

Communication: The charisma, influence and presence to get construction people to do new things and take the best approach

Leadership: A proven leader/coach/developer of teams or teams of teams

Impact: A track record of implementing scalable and repeatable solutions in projects and organisations that had a significant positive impact

Laminar isn't the place for you if any of the following is true:

You want an easy, chilled-out role without much challenge

You like to be the smartest person in the room

You don't like continuously receiving honest and candid feedback

You prefer to do your own thing rather than work with a team

_________________________________________________________________________________________

Frequently Asked Questions

What kinds of projects would I be working on?

It isn't uncommon for people to be exposed to several projects in their first year of joining us. You will work on many types of complex projects including; data centres, highways, railways, nuclear power plants, and pretty much any other type of complex project you can think of. (Check out our portfolio)

Who are our clients?

Our clients include major Owners/Operators, Main Contractors, and Subcontractors, with project values between £1m and £1B+ globally.

Where would I be working?

Some weeks you might be working from home all week. Others you might travel to site to meet the construction teams and help them get organised in person. Maybe you will pop into our London office for a workshop/beer/social event. Maybe you will travel to exotic (and sometimes not) locations in Europe or the Middle East to visit clients. It really depends on what you want to get involved with and what fits with your life.

This where you work varies depending on what types of projects. Most of our team work predominantly from home with regular visits to projects. As an absolute maximum expectation, we attend projects 2-3 days a week if they are near where you live. But also be prepared to travel further afield 3 days every second week.

How does what I do connect with the long-term impact on the construction industry?

As a consultant in the field, you will be tasked with understanding and solving common problems. We don't want to reinvent the wheel every time so you will be responsible for documenting new solutions and evolving existing ones we have developed. The improvement never stops. This will go into our knowledge repository which we are going to open source to the industry.

The knowledge you capture will be used to develop new products which we will build. You will constantly be testing our products in the field so that we can rapidly iterate and improve them for anyone in the industry to use.
