  • Supporting project teams throughout delivery
  • Developing commercial processes and best practice

For the right person, there is also the opportunity to take on a broader, business-wide contracts remit, working closely with senior leadership across multiple projects.

Who we're looking for

You may currently be a:

  • Senior Commercial Manager
  • Commercial Manager
  • Managing Quantity Surveyor
  • Senior Quantity Surveyor
  • Pre-Construction Manager
  • Senior Contracts Manager

You'll have strong experience within civil engineering, infrastructure, utilities or major construction, with solid NEC experience and the commercial judgement to work confidently with clients, contractors and senior stakeholders.

Why consider it?

  • Major civil engineering, infrastructure and energy projects
  • Genuine opportunity to influence commercial decisions
  • Exposure to senior leadership and the wider business
  • Scope to develop into a broader contracts/commercial leadership position
  • Strong package including company car and bonus
