Project Manager - Civils
Location: West Wales
Salary: £70,000-£80,000 plus package
Project value: Civils package: £30m
I am working with a leading Tier 1 contractor to recruit an experienced Civil Project Manager for a major £100m building development in West Wales.
The successful candidate will take responsibility for the delivery of a £30m civils package over a 126-week programme. This is a delivery-focused position covering everything outside the main buildings, including:
- Major earthworks
- RC frame foundations and substructures
- New utility installations
- Roads and associated infrastructure
- Drainage and external works
- Landscaping later in the programme
Reporting to the Project Director, you will manage a Checking Engineer, three Site Managers and a Foreman.
Key responsibilities
- Lead the day-to-day delivery of the civils package
- Produce and manage short and medium-term programmes
- Coordinate the appointed civils subcontractor
- Maintain high standards of engineering and quality
- Manage the site delivery team
- Monitor progress against the 126-week programme
- Coordinate the civils package with the wider building works
- Resolve engineering and site-delivery issues
- Report progress, risks and key actions to the Project Director
- Ensure works are delivered safely, efficiently and to the required standard
About you
You will be an experienced, civils-biased Project Manager with a background in one or more of the following:
- Heavy earthworks
- Roads and infrastructure
- Major groundworks packages
- RC foundations and substructures
- Utilities, drainage and external works
- Large-scale civil engineering or building projects
Candidates currently working as a Civil Project Manager, Senior Agent, Project Agent or Civils Construction Manager will be considered. This position would suit someone who wants to continue delivering major civil engineering packages or move from standalone infrastructure into large-scale building construction.
