  • Oversee project progress to meet timelines, quality standards, and design specifications.
  • Coordinate with the Quality & Commissioning Engineer on the configuration of monitoring platforms per client requirements.
  • Conduct snag checks, addressing any issues to meet practical completion dates.
  • Assist in preparing “as-built” drawings and the H&S file in collaboration with the design and project teams.
  • Provide cost-related documentation to the finance team to facilitate client invoicing.
  • Travel as needed to project sites nationwide, with occasional extended stays.

You’ll have at least 10 years of experience in construction management, with a preference for solar PV experience coupled with a degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent qualifications. CITB SMSTS certification and a CSCS Black Card are required. A PMP or other construction-specific qualifications are advantageous.

  • You’ll have proficiency with construction management software, project management tools, and regulatory compliance for site documentation (CPP, RAMS).
  • Proficiency in Outlook, Word, Excel, Teams, Adobe, and Dash Pivot site management software.
  • Strong leadership, negotiation, and conflict resolution skills to manage teams and stakeholders effectively.

Closing date for applications: 19th November 2024
