At Jacobs, we’re challenging today to reinvent tomorrow by solving the world’s most critical problems for thriving cities, resilient environments, mission‑critical outcomes, operational advancement, scientific discovery and cutting‑edge manufacturing, turning abstract ideas into realities that transform the world for good.
What you’ll be doing
* You’ll take end‑to‑end ownership of complex projects (or workstreams within major programmes) across transmission & distribution, renewables integration, generation, and emerging low‑carbon technologies.
* Deliver assigned projects through all lifecycle stages (Appraise/FEED/Design/Procure/Construct/Commission/Handover) to agreed scope, schedule, cost, quality, and HSSE targets.
* Plan & control: set baselines; develop WBS, schedules, budgets and risk/contingency; manage change control and performance reporting.
* Lead multi‑disciplinary teams (design, consents, environmental, commercial, construction) and coordinate supply chain partners and OEMs.
* Client interface: act as primary point of contact; run progress reviews, gateways, and steering groups; ensure stakeholder requirements are captured and met.
* Commercial management: administer contracts (NEC3/NEC4/JCT), support procurement, RFIs/RFPs, tender evaluation, and manage compensation events/variations.
* Risk & assurance: maintain risk/issue registers, own mitigations, and support independent reviews (HSE/CDM, technical, readiness, and quality audits).
* Regulatory & consents: coordinate permits, interface with statutory bodies/DCO requirements, land access, and environmental commitments.
* Construction readiness & delivery: drive constructability reviews, commissioning plans, site logistics, and interface management.
* Digital delivery: use CDE/BIM and appropriate PM tools (e.g., P6 or MS Project, Power BI) for planning, collaboration and reporting.
* Continuous improvement: capture lessons learned, promote best practice, and contribute to bids and portfolio governance.
Here’s what you’ll need

* Working knowledge of NEC contracts (especially change management)
* Ability to lead and coordinate multi‑disciplinary teams
* Competence with PM tools (e.g., MS Project, risk registers, standard PM reporting)
* Excellent written and verbal communication skills
* Relevant degree or equivalent experience (Engineering, PM, Construction)
Benefits
* Up to 10% pension
* 24 days (+10 days bought) holidays
* Free medical and income protection insurance
* Flexible working arrangements that support your well‑being and potential
