Step Into a Role That Builds Your Future

If you’re hungry for progression, excited by challenge, and ready to step deeper into the world of major infrastructure delivery, this opportunity is designed for you. As a Project Controls Engineer, you won’t just support projects — you’ll help shape the systems, insights, and decisions that keep some of the UK’s most complex programmes on track.

This is your chance to gain hands-on experience across planning, cost, risk, and performance — and to fast-track your development with exposure that normally takes years to secure.


🔧 Where You’ll Add Value

Joining high-performing project teams, you’ll be right at the centre of major schemes across transport, energy, defence, and utilities. Your work will directly influence delivery confidence, programme visibility, and decision-making.

You’ll get involved in:

* Building integrated schedules using tools such as Primavera P6
* Supporting cost control, forecasting, and earned value management
* Analysing performance data and providing insight that drives action
* Participating in risk workshops, reporting cycles, and change control
* Collaborating with planners, cost engineers, and project managers
* Developing rounded capability across the full project controls spectrum


✅ What You’ll Bring

You’re early in your career but ambitious — someone who wants responsibility, growth, and meaningful involvement on big projects.

* A degree in engineering, construction, project management, or similar
* 2+ years’ experience in project controls, planning, or project support
* Familiarity with P6, MS Project, and strong Excel skills
* Analytical thinking and the ability to communicate clearly
* A proactive mindset and genuine passion for major infrastructure delivery
