In this brand-new role, you'll have the unique opportunity to build the construction logistics function from the ground up, defining strategies and processes that align with our ambitious growth plans. Working in close collaboration with senior leaders, you'll develop and implement a comprehensive construction logistics strategy for London Gatwick, ensuring that every element of our construction logistics and supply chain operation supports the complex demands of our large and diverse portfolio of projects.

The role

Reporting to the Head of PMO, you will lead the development, implementation and ongoing management of London Gatwick's Construction Logistics Strategy to enable safe, efficient and timely delivery of centralised Construction Logistics across all our projects, playing a key role in the transition from a Contractor-led model to a Client-led model, all whilst minimising the impact to the Airport's daily operations.

Other duties include:

  • Leading the tender, evaluation, selection and management of a 3rd party Construction Logistics Partner.
  • Ensuring a seamless transition from Contractor-led to Client-led model with no impact to live or developing projects, and integration with key stakeholders such as Security, the Contractor Support Centre, and Gatwick's Framework Contractors.
  • Leading on the ongoing delivery of logistics services by the Construction Logistics Provider, implementing measures to mitigate risks associated with logistics, ensuring all safety protocols are adhered to.
  • Driving the adoption of new logistics technologies and techniques, including advanced software and hardware solutions, to improve logistical efficiency and reduce environmental impact across projects.

What are we looking for?

The live environment at Gatwick requires all our teams to have a flexible and adaptable approach, with exceptional problem solving skills and an ability to engage and influence stakeholders at all levels.

As well as an in-depth knowledge of Health, Safety and Environmental regulations within the Construction industry, this role requires:

  • Previous experience as a senior construction logistics manager or equivalent, on complex multi-disciplinary infrastructure projects/portfolios or multi-year programmes of engineering works with a value typically in excess of £100m per annum.
  • Experience in developing, implementing, and managing logistics strategies across multiple projects and contractors, including managing 3PL providers on complex infrastructure projects.
  • Experience managing construction logistics in a live operational environment, coordinating multiple stakeholders.
  • Extensive knowledge of the UK Construction Supply Chain, and in particular logistics providers.
  • CSCS (Construction Skills Certification Scheme) card.
