Offer description

The Role

You will be enhancing the delivery of the most complex and interesting projects in the world through the power of project controls. You will be a senior leader in our team pushing the discipline to new heights not only within Laminar but within the industry in general.


Purpose of the role

You will be enhancing the delivery of the most complex and interesting projects in the world through the power of project controls. You will be a senior leader in our team pushing the discipline to new heights not only within Laminar but within the industry in general.


Your team

This role is part of our Project Management Consultancy which focuses on:

* Understanding what the real problems of projects are.
* Implementing the best solutions to those problems.
* Developing scalable best practices, tools and technology.

More specifically you will be part of our Project Controls Discipline Team who are industry leaders in the planning and controls of complex construction projects. Your initial leader will be one of our project controls discipline directors.


Your top three objectives

* To make construction projects deliver to near perfection.
* To develop yourself and everyone around you.
* To create scalable and repeatable solutions to common problems.


Your top five responsibilities

* Own the controls: Own the controls for cost, schedule, change and risk on one or more projects to enable accurate decisions for project teams.
* Develop everyone: Maximise the development of your team personally and professionally and educate our clients to improve as well.
* Make scalable solutions: Develop scalable and repeatable best practices and tools in collaboration with the team so that long‑term impact is achieved.
* Report and inform: Provide simple actionable reports to stakeholders at all levels that help them deliver their part of the project more efficiently and effectively.
* Own the outcome: You may not be the project manager ultimately responsible for the results but you are sure as heck responsible for putting in your best effort to ensure the project’s understanding and focus on the plan no matter how stubborn they are.


You must have

* A construction engineering background: You have solid capability in the control of cost, schedule, and change, along with deep experience in developing project controls processes and reporting that align with strategic objectives and broader project context.
* Communication skills: You have the charisma, presence, and influence to engage construction teams, drive adoption of new approaches, and promote best practices across the board.
* Leadership capabilities: You’re a proven leader, coach, and developer of teams, capable of guiding others and building high‑performing planning and controls functions.
* Impact: You have a strong track record of implementing scalable, repeatable solutions that created significant positive impact across complex projects.


Laminar isn’t the place for you if any of the following is true

* You want an easy, chilled‑out role without much challenge.
* You like to be the smartest person in the room.
* You don’t like continuously receiving honest candid feedback.
* You prefer to do your own thing rather than work with a team.


Benefits

* Health Insurance Scheme. Comprehensive private health coverage – for you and your family.
* Pension Scheme. A competitive plan to help you plan for the long term – plus salary sacrifice options available to maximise your savings.
* Bonus Scheme. As a permanent member of the team, you’ll share in our success. Our annual bonus is designed to reward both the now and the future – with a flexible mix of cash and high‑growth equity that you choose. Bonuses are discretionary and based on performance.
* Professional body membership. One fee covered per year – so you can stay connected to your field and develop your craft.
* Cycle to Work Scheme. A tax‑efficient way to get wheels – and do your bit for the environment.
* In‑house coaching. Regular 1:1 coaching sessions, fully confidential, to help you navigate challenges, build self‑awareness, and grow intentionally – professionally and as a human being.
* Equity upside. As we grow, you grow. Our generous equity scheme is especially powerful for those who stay with us on our journey. You help us build the future – and own a piece of it.
* Flexible working. Work where it makes sense – most of our team works from home, visiting sites or clients regularly. We care about outcomes, not clock‑ins.
* Relentless development. Our goal is for every year here to be worth five years of development anywhere else. You’ll get a coach, a mentor, honest feedback, and a culture that challenges you to keep levelling up.
