Consulting - Planning - United Kingdom - Full Time
Are you a seasoned project controls guru that is a bit tired of the standard old-fashioned way of doing things in the construction industry?
Do you get deep satisfaction from making things run more efficiently using a good dose of common sense and maybe a bit of technology?
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. 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 exist so that everyone in our team can thrive in a high-impact community that:
To fully digitise the construction of human civilisation
You will be enhancing the delivery of the most complex and interesting projects in the world through the power of project controls. You will be a senior leader in our team pushing the discipline to new heights not only within Laminar but within the industry in general.
This role is part of our Project Management Consultancy which focuses on:
Understanding what the real problems of projects are.
More specifically you will be part of our Project Controls Discipline Team who are industry leaders in the planning and controls of complex construction projects. Your initial leader will be one of our project controls discipline directors.
To make construction projects deliver to near perfection
Own the controls for cost, schedule, change and risk on one or more projects to enable accurate decisions for project teams
Develop scalable and repeatable best practices and tools in collaboration with the team so that long-term impact is achieved
Provide simple actionable reports to stakeholders at all levels that help them deliver their part of the project more efficiently and effectively
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
You are a seasoned project controls manager with the powers to transform any project you touch.
Expert developer of processes and reporting which take into account strategic objectives and the broad context you are operating in
Communication: The charisma, influence and presence to get construction people to do new things and take the best approach
A track record of implementing scalable and repeatable solutions in projects that had a significant positive impact
Expert developer in PowerBI and SharePoint. Deep commercial acumen in construction projects. Impact : Impacts that have gone beyond your project and improved organisations as a whole in a way that has spread to others
As a project controls manager we are sure you are more than aware of what a project controls manager does. Project controls hasn’t advanced much over the decades and we are changing that by bringing in high-end digital capability to automate and push us forward to predictive analytics. We are building products and publicly available documents to change the way projects think about and implement project controls. We aim to impact all projects, not just the ones we work on directly.
You will be leading controls in the context of either our PMO solutions or as part of our full project delivery teams. But as mentioned above you will be tasked with using these engagements to develop further the state of the art for future projects as well – no more reinventing the wheel.
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. (Our clients include major Owners/Operators, Main Contractors, and Subcontractors, with project values between £1m and £1B+ globally.
Some weeks you might be working from home all week. Others you might travel to sites or client offices 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) This where you work varies depending on what types of projects. Most of our team works 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. 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.
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Paid Annual Leave 25 days + statutory Bank Holidays
Flexible hours
Pension & private health insurance
All travel costs outside of your local area are covered
You will be supported to excel in whichever areas you are most interested in Long-term impact: We are focused on solving the biggest issues in construction project delivery in a way that can spread and outlast us.
A generous equity scheme: as a fast-growing consultancy as well as the fact we are building software this has a huge upside, particularly for people that stay with us through our growth.
________________________________________________________________________________________
After that, we will reach out to you to schedule a casual conversation to help you to know us a bit better and tell us a bit about yourself.
This is to ensure that when you join you are starting at the right level of responsibility based on your capability not just based on experience.
