Gas Construction Assistant Project Manager - Remote with travel - £43,250 to £47,099

As an Assistant Project Manager for our Gas Construction team, you'll support on delivering projects across a range of disciplines including civil and mechanical.

You'll be supporting the Project Manager in the delivery of capital projects to time, cost, specification and ensuring health, safety and environmental issues are managed throughout the process. You'll provide the appropriate support into the pre-sanction design process in project development, including reviewing the proposals for SHE management, project risks, deliverability, and safety performance.

You'll also provide regular updates and project monthly status reports which will include SHE performance, milestone progress, risk management and current/forecast financial performance. Working closely with the Site Supervisor, you'll manage and coordinate contractors and project teams and reporting on the contractor performance.

You’ll have a minimum of a HNC/HND level qualification (or equivalent) in engineering, project management or construction. You'll also be working towards or willing to undertake a part time engineering or project management course/degree.

Having construction and site experience would be great, ideally in the gas industry and supported by industry recognised qualifications in health, safety and the environment.

We're keen to grow the Project Managers of tomorrow. Therefore, for those keen to progress in their role to become a Project Manager, we'll give you the support and tools needed to succeed.

Travel will be part of the job – we have a national portfolio. You'll spend up to 40% of your working week travelling and working on sites supporting in the delivery of the projects with home working in-between. Therefore, it’s essential you hold a full UK driving licence.

If this sounds like you, take a peek at the perks below:

  • A bonus based on personal and company performance
  • Company car
  • 26 days’ holiday plus statutory holidays – option available to buy extra holiday days
  • A pension scheme where we double match your contribution (maximum Company contribution of 12%)
  • Paid expenses for any business travel and accommodation
  • A flexible benefit scheme where you can opt into a whole host of lifestyle options
  • Access to employee support, care, and assistance helplines

The closing date is 21st February 2024, although in some cases I’ll close the ad early.

I’ll respond to every application.
