Launch Your Career in Major Infrastructure
Are you ready to take your project controls experience to the next level? This is your chance to join a client-side team delivering some of the UK’s most complex infrastructure programmes. From transport and energy to defence and utilities, you’ll play a hands-on role in keeping projects on track, informed, and moving forward.
This role is ideal for someone early in their career but eager to gain broad exposure across planning, cost, risk, and performance, fast-tracking your skills and experience.
What You’ll Do
As a Project Controls Engineer, you’ll be embedded in delivery teams, helping to shape decisions and provide clarity across major programmes:
* Develop and maintain integrated project schedules using Primavera P6 or MS Project
* Support cost tracking, forecasting, and earned value management
* Analyse project performance and deliver actionable insights
* Assist with risk management, change control, and reporting cycles
* Collaborate with planners, cost engineers, and project managers to optimise delivery
* Gain rounded exposure across the full project controls spectrum
What You Bring
* A degree in engineering, construction, project management, or related field
* 2+ years’ experience in project controls, planning, or project support
* Working knowledge of NEC contracts and how they impact programme delivery
* Proficiency in Primavera P6, MS Project, and strong Excel skills
* Analytical mindset with clear, confident communication
* Proactive attitude and enthusiasm for major infrastructure delivery
Why This Role Stands Out
* Hands-On Experience: Work directly on high-profile UK infrastructure projects
* Career Development: Fast-track your skills across planning, cost, and risk
* Sector Exposure: Gain insight across transport, utilities, defence, and energy
* Support & Mentorship: Learn from experienced industry specialists
* Long-Term Growth: Join a client-side programme with career visibility and progression
