About the Project

We are expanding our 20-year PPP (Programme & Project Partners) due to a brand new project. This role is critical for ensuring the successful commencement and financial performance of the project.

As a Pre-Construction Manager, you'll work closely with our design and planning teams to develop and implement a comprehensive construction strategy for the project. This will involve leading both the planning phase of construction activities and overseeing a package of trials for selecting the technology to be utilised in the project.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Develop and implement a comprehensive construction strategy for the project.
  • Collaborate with designers and project team members during the early phases to ensure project designs are construction-ready.
  • Conduct constructability reviews to identify and mitigate potential issues early on.
  • Work with planning and scheduling teams to create detailed project timelines and ensure all pre-construction activities are synchronized with the main construction schedule.
  • Coordinate with the commercial team to align the acquisition strategy with the overall construction strategy.
  • Oversee all enabling works required before the commencement of the main construction activities, including site clearance, utility relocations, and temporary works.
  • Maintain oversight of all preparatory activities to ensure they are completed on schedule and within budget.
  • Oversee a package of trials to determine the most suitable technology for the project.
  • Ensure trials are conducted efficiently, meet all necessary standards, and are completed within the allocated budget.
  • Lead and support a team of project personnel dedicated to the trials, without acting as their direct Line Manager.
  • Utilise CEMAR to manage contracts.
  • Understand the project's context within the PPP pipeline portfolio and manage contractual relationships accordingly.
  • Oversee the financial performance of pre-construction activities and technology trials, managing a budget of approximately £6M.
  • Ensure effective use of financial resources and adherence to the allocated budget.
  • Manage the overall programme to ensure all pre-construction and trial outcomes are delivered on time and do not delay project commencement.
  • Provide timely updates on project and trial performance to senior internal and external stakeholders.
  • Engage with key stakeholders to ensure constructability considerations are integrated into planning and design phases.
  • Ensure clear accountability for performance and outcomes across all pre-construction activities and trial management.

Salary: The estimated annual salary for this role is around £80,000 - £110,000, depending on experience. With our competitive salary and benefits package, you'll have everything you need to succeed in your career.
