Plan the complex. Shape the outcome.
This is an opportunity for an experienced Senior Planner to take a central role within a large, live infrastructure environment, supporting the delivery of complex, high-value construction projects. Working across a diverse portfolio of works, you’ll see the direct impact of your planning expertise on operational assets and end users.
You’ll provide a full end-to-end planning service, operating at the heart of project delivery and collaborating closely with contractors, engineers, and project teams. The environment is fast-moving, technically challenging, and constantly evolving — ideal for a planner who enjoys variety, responsibility, and influence.
Typical projects range £50m+, spanning civils, airfield-style assets, facilities upgrades, and operational infrastructure. Alongside managing complex programmes, you’ll support and mentor junior planners and contribute to continual improvement across planning practices.
What you’ll be responsible for
* Developing and managing robust, fully integrated delivery schedules
* Establishing clear logic, interfaces, and milestones to support successful project outcomes
* Monitoring programme performance, identifying critical paths, and developing recovery strategies
* Engaging with key stakeholders including contractors, project managers, engineers, and subcontractors
* Providing planning insight, challenge, and technical guidance to project teams
* Supporting risk identification, mitigation planning, and schedule assurance
* Producing clear, meaningful reporting to inform senior decision-making
What you’ll bring
* Proven experience as a Senior Planner on complex projects typically valued £20m–£50m+
* Strong capability using Primavera P6, MS Excel, and Microsoft Office tools
* Experience managing schedules within multi-stakeholder, live environments
* A relevant qualification or strong analytical background within construction, engineering, or infrastructure
* Confident communicator with the ability to influence across delivery teams
* A flexible, solutions-focused mindset suited to operational settings
* Experience working in live or constrained environments (advantageous, not essential)
Why this role stands out
* Exposure to technically complex, high-profile infrastructure programmes
* Hybrid working model (office-led, balanced with flexibility)
* Highly competitive reward package including bonus and flexible allowance
* Opportunity to mentor others and grow into more senior planning or leadership roles
* A role where your planning insight genuinely shapes delivery outcomes
