Programme Controller with strong experience of large scale capital infrastructure projects required by a well-known, long-established company based in Sussex, who provide a vital service across critical national infrastructure. This Programme Controller role will see you working across strategic programmes which focus on capital infrastructure investments, and you'd be involved in planning, scheduling, cost projections and working with that data. We'd ideally like to see candidates from large scale infrastructure backgrounds such as construction, energy, rail, highways, utilities, oil & gas, mining etc, as it's important to understand how programme financials work in these types of settings. You'll must have good exposure to programme values in excess of £200m, and not just following due process but thinking outside the box. In this role you will be involved in programme values between £400m and £2bn - so prior exposure managing these sorts of budgets is a hard requirement. Any additional understanding of utilities or national infrastructure regulation and compliance would be a bonus. As you'll be supporting the strategic leadership team with reports and analysis, you'll need strong knowledge of excel, and Oracle's Primavera P6 platform would be a nice-to-have.

You'll must have good exposure to programme values in excess of £200m, and not just following due process but thinking outside the box.
