Lead. Deliver. Transform.

We’re looking for someone with a strong technical background in remediation — not civils — who can oversee multiple complex earthworks projects with confidence, discipline, and creativity.
Key Responsibilities
Take ownership for delivering earthworks-based remediation projects, from initiation through to completion — safely, on time, within budget, and to the highest standards.
Manage contaminated soil and groundwater treatment, site preparation, and related technical operations alongside your team of multidisciplinary experts.
Develop and oversee project plans, manage stakeholders, control financial performance, and produce accurate reports for both regulators and internal stakeholders.
Provide strong leadership, guidance, and oversight for site teams, fostering a culture of high performance and collaboration.
Communicate frequently and transparently with regulators, clients, and stakeholders, interpreting technical data and navigating environmental permits.
Support team members’ professional growth and identify training needs alongside delivering operational excellence.
Implement innovations and best practices to maximize delivery and service.
Perform any other duties that contribute to delivering a first-rate, compliant, and safely-managed project.

Proven Ability: to manage multiple projects (typically 2–3) and stakeholders with confidence and finesse.
Commercial Acumen: strong financial control, supplier management, and a keen understanding of NEC3, JCT, CDM2015, SMSTS, CSCS, and WAMITAB.
