What you will be doing…

As our next Project Manager, your role involves overseeing a diverse portfolio of projects including emergency control rooms, emergency power supplies, emergency equipment, police stations, and access buildings for the site. While primarily focused on civil base projects, you will also manage mechanical and electrical fittings. You will be responsible for guiding the police station project through stages 3 and 4 of design, overseeing the pricing after design approval, and managing the subsequent construction phase. This includes securing contracts for the police station design, managing subcontractors, and coordinating the architectural fit-out.

Additionally, you will manage the timeline for smaller buildings within the portfolio, ensuring that interfaces, design, procurement, and construction plans are executed at least 12 months before the site goes live. Your responsibilities encompass comprehensive project management from initial design to final construction, ensuring all projects are completed on time and meet required standards. Other responsibilities also include:

• Assist in securing the necessary resources for project requirements, ensuring staff qualifications and promptly addressing personnel shortfalls or issues.
• Collaborate with the Senior Project Manager to develop and implement strategies and plans aligned with the overall programme execution plan (PEP), ensuring effective management, organisation, and execution.
• Maintain effective communication with all stakeholders, executing project or PEP strategies within the assigned contract or package of work, and providing progress reports on milestones, deadlines, and budget.
• Anticipate, manage, and resolve issues within the contract or package, identifying risks, facilitating issue resolution, and escalating concerns to the Senior Project Manager when necessary.
• Ensure that schedules for the contract or package of work are developed and maintained, consistent with overall Project schedules, and incorporate lessons learned and best practices for continuous improvement.

Who you are…

As a professional in complex project management, we’re looking for you to bring a wealth of knowledge in leadership and a strong grasp of various project management tools. Your proficiency in applying estimating, scheduling, programming and risk will be essential to deliver the requirements of this project. You will demonstrate ownership and responsibility, exhibit a proactive, can-do attitude, and possess strong interpersonal skills. Effective stakeholder management is also crucial for success in this role.

While a degree in engineering, construction, or a related field is desirable, your demonstrated project management experience in engineering design, contract and field execution strategies, multi-discipline projects, construction activities, procurement, and management of complex contracts will be paramount in this role.

Applications for this role close: Sunday 14th July
