Offer description

Overview Working on behalf of a leading UK main contractor, we are seeking a Senior Project Manager to oversee the delivery of a major gas-terminal upgrade project on the Norfolk coast. This strategic programme incorporates complex asset-health works, new process-plant installations and interfaces with regional gas networks and interconnectors. The role offers the opportunity to manage high-hazard, regulated-environment construction within a fast-paced delivery team, while also contributing to early-stage energy-transition feasibility activities — including hydrogen-readiness and CO₂ handling studies. Key Responsibilities * Lead end-to-end management of upgrade works across civil, mechanical, electrical and process disciplines, ensuring programme, cost, quality and safety requirements are fully met. * Act as a central coordination point between design teams, terminal operations and internal delivery teams to align works with operational windows, outage planning and plant isolations. * Maintain robust project control documentation including the Risk Register, Issue Register, change logs, schedules, budgets, governance papers and monthly CVRs. * Produce clear progress reports and presentations for senior stakeholders, identifying risks, opportunities and potential impacts on programme or cost. * Drive safe execution of works within a live terminal environment, leading SHEQ culture, CDM 2015 compliance, audits and toolbox talks. * Lead procurement activities — preparing scopes, selecting subcontractors and managing performance reviews to ensure technical, commercial and safety standards are met. * Coordinate permit-to-work processes, site access planning and integration of specialist contractors during shutdowns, tie-ins and high-risk operations. * Support long-term terminal development planning linked to future hydrogen, CO₂ or repurposing potential, feeding technical insights into forecasting and programme development. * Travel to the Norfolk site and regional offices as required. Qualifications & Experience * Extensive experience delivering major construction, engineering or energy-sector projects, ideally with exposure to process facilities or high-pressure gas infrastructure. * Strong commercial acumen, including scope management, forecasting, CVRs and contract administration. * Technical understanding of gas process systems, pipeline tie-ins or terminal operations is highly desirable. * Knowledge of CDM 2015 and experience working within the Principal Contractor environment. * Background in regulated utilities or critical national infrastructure is an advantage. * Excellent communication and reporting skills, able to convey complex technical issues to non-technical stakeholders. * Full UK driving licence and willingness to travel regularly. Benefits * Health cash plan and wellbeing support * Life assurance and pension contributions * Hybrid working options where project conditions allow * Professional development pathways and industry-leading training * Additional company perks and performance-linked benefits This is a rare opportunity to lead a flagship gas-terminal upgrade with real strategic impact — if you’re driven, delivery-focused and ready for a high-profile challenge, now is the time to step forward
