Assistant Commercial Manager ( Junior QS)

Assistant Commercial Manager Major Infrastructure Two roles. One of the biggest infrastructure projects in Europe. And a genuine chance to build your commercial career from the inside of a client team that sits above the Tier 1 contractors, not inside one. Our client is looking for two Assistant Commercial Managers to join an integrated client team delivering major infrastructure works. These are early-career commercial roles, ideally suited to a graduate quantity surveyor looking for their second position, someone who has had a solid grounding in NEC contract administration and now wants more: more complexity, more exposure, and a clear path toward chartership. What the role involves You will work in an integrated client team, sitting alongside project managers and commercial leads to assure and support the commercial performance of Tier 1 contractors. That means reviewing their work, not doing it for them. You will administer NEC contracts day to day, raise and manage early warnings, track compensation events and support the assessment of change costs. You will get involved in procurement reviews, help validate subcontractor accounts and support the settlement of final accounts. Month to month, you will be contributing to contract performance reporting and helping the team maintain commercial control across live works packages. What we are looking for NEC contract experience is essential. If you have not worked with NEC3 or NEC4 in a meaningful way, this role is not the right fit. Beyond that, we are looking for someone with a quantity surveying background and a genuine appetite to develop commercially on a complex programme. Experience in infrastructure is a strong advantage. Highways, rail, utilities, civils: all relevant. A background in building or MEPH is also genuinely interesting to our client. If you are working toward your APC, our client can support that journey. These roles sit within a team that understands professional development and will give you the breadth of experience that the assessment process requires, and the ability to second you to a Contractor for your qualification. Hybrid working applies, with a minimum of three days per week on site or in the office. Closing date: 28 August 2026. If this sounds like the right next step, get in touch with us directly or send across your CV and we will come back to you promptly.

Two positions are available following the promotion of the existing Senior Project Managers into Head of Delivery roles giving you a genuine, proven route to the next level. You will report to a Head of Delivery and lead a team of around 4 5 Project Managers, with responsibility for approximately 30km of HS2 route and the delivery of the major civil engineering assets within your section. This isn't a role where you'll be managing a single package. You'll have oversight of a substantial section of railway, working across major earthworks, bridges, viaducts, green tunnels, highways and associated infrastructure. Detailed design is complete and the programme is now firmly in the delivery phase, with approximately three years of construction, completion and handover ahead. Two Opportunities NC2a South Aylesbury A key section of HS2 forming part of the programme's designated core test area. Major works include the Wendover Green Tunnel, Wendover North Cutting, Leather Lane Green Bridge and associated earthworks, landscaping and infrastructure. G2S Greatworth to Southam EKFB's northernmost section, covering major structures including the Chipping Warden and Greatworth Green Tunnels, 515m Edgcote Viaduct, Oxford Canal Viaduct, A423 Banbury Road Bridge, Ladbroke Cutting and Long Itchington Wood Tunnel. What You'll Do Lead and develop an integrated team of approximately 4 5 Project Managers. Take responsibility for delivery across your section of route. Drive progress with the main works contractor and supply chain. Resolve complex delivery issues and remove obstacles before they impact the programme. Manage interfaces between civils, rail systems, track, highways, utilities and Network Rail. Manage relationships with contractors, suppliers, local authorities, landowners and other stakeholders.

Identify and manage delivery risks, issues and opportunities. Ensure construction is delivered safely and in accordance with HS2 and CDM requirements. Lead the section through construction, completion, handover and transition towards railway systems and commissioning. What We're Looking For This is a delivery-focused Senior Project Manager role. We're looking for someone who understands how complex infrastructure gets built and who can bring contractors, suppliers and stakeholders together to keep delivery moving. Significant project or construction management experience on major infrastructure projects. Strong civil engineering delivery experience across heavy civils, rail, highways, tunnelling, nuclear or similarly complex environments. Experience working with NEC3 and/or NEC4 contracts. Strong understanding of construction methodologies, sequencing and programme delivery. Ability to challenge contractor programmes and performance without needing to be a specialist planner. Proven contractor and supply-chain management experience. Experience leading integrated teams and managing complex interfaces. Strong stakeholder management skills across multiple organisations and competing requirements. Collaborative, confident and solutions-driven approach. Understanding of CDM within major construction projects. Experience monitoring cost, schedule, productivity and delivery performance. Client-side or consultancy experience would be advantageous. Full UK driving licence and willingness to travel between project sites. Why HS2? You will be joining at one of the most important points in the delivery of the railway with detailed design complete and major construction works still to be delivered. Your responsibility will extend beyond an individual project package. You'll lead a significant section of route, manage a team of Project Managers and work directly with the main contractor and wider HS2 organisation to get the railway built. The progression opportunity is genuine: the previous Senior Project Managers have already moved into Head of Delivery roles. And when this section is complete, HS2 has further major opportunities across stations and railway systems, with the wider programme continuing through to 2039. Package £100,000 £111,578 salary, potentially up to £120,000 depending on experience. 12% employer pension contribution. Private healthcare. 25 days holiday. Direct employment with High Speed Two Ltd. Progression to Head of Delivery circa £133,000 + package.

This is "THE" Client based role, overssing the main works contractors and designers, the client is looking for a Quality Manager to work across the London stations programme for the new High Speed railway. Day to day, you will audit supply-chain performance, review quality management plans and audit schedules, and track non-conformances and defects back to their root causes. You will identify trends, recommend preventative actions, and report clearly on quality performance so that decisions at every level are based on solid information. You will lead implementation of the Get It Right Initiative across delivery teams and supply-chain partners, measuring the cost of poor quality and driving improvement. Where acceptance rates fall short, you will investigate why and support the teams responsible for getting them back on track. This is a high level role, looking at trends, not individual items. You will be advising project teams, sharing lessons learned, raising the standard of quality documents coming through from suppliers, and training the people around you to think about quality in a more disciplined way. What you need A degree, HND or HNC in an engineering or construction related subject forms the foundation. On top of that, you will need a completed IRCA-accredited ISO 9001 Lead Auditor qualification and a solid understanding of audit and assurance processes, including the three lines of defence model. Your experience should include developing and reporting quality performance metrics, delivering operational audits, analysing risk data, and producing non-conformance and defect trend analysis that leads to real corrective action. You will be comfortable working across multiple contracts at once, managing your own priorities and meeting reporting deadlines without being chased. You can communicate clearly with a range of stakeholders, influence without authority, and translate management system standards into practical application on a live infrastructure programme. It is worth noting that experience in major rail infrastructure is a strong advantage, though candidates from highways, utilities or other complex civils programmes will also be relevant to our client.

You will be advising project teams, sharing lessons learned, raising the standard of quality documents coming through from suppliers, and training the people around you to think about quality in a more disciplined way. What you need A degree, HND or HNC in an engineering or construction related subject forms the foundation. On top of that, you will need a completed IRCA-accredited ISO 9001 Lead Auditor qualification and a solid understanding of audit and assurance processes, including the three lines of defence model. Your experience should include developing and reporting quality performance metrics, delivering operational audits, analysing risk data, and producing non-conformance and defect trend analysis that leads to real corrective action. You will be comfortable working across multiple contracts at once, managing your own priorities and meeting reporting deadlines without being chased. You can communicate clearly with a range of stakeholders, influence without authority, and translate management system standards into practical application on a live infrastructure programme. It is worth noting that experience in major rail infrastructure is a strong advantage, though candidates from highways, utilities or other complex civils programmes will also be relevant to our client.
