Apply structured risk management aligned to the APM Risk Management competency, maintaining live risk registers with quantified impact assessments and mitigation strategies.
Ensure full CDM 2015 compliance including oversight of Pre-Construction Information, Construction Phase Plans, and the Health and Safety File.
Lead pre-construction planning activities, ensuring scope, programme, risk, constructability and stakeholder requirements are fully considered prior to project delivery.
Manage third-party consents and asset adoption processes, including Network Rail BAPA/APA approvals, Section 104/106 agreements and compliance with relevant utility accreditation schemes such as NERS and WIRS.
Lead contract administration, including Early Warnings, Compensation Events and change control.
Manage interfaces between utility packages and wider construction works, ensuring programme alignment and avoidance of clashes.
Provide project governance and reporting to senior leadership on programme, cost, risk, safety and quality performance.
Oversee testing, commissioning and handover of utility assets to operational teams and adopting authorities.
Mentor and develop junior project staff, fostering professional development consistent with APM’s emphasis on leadership and people management.
The duties and responsibilities in this job description are not exhaustive. The post holder may be required to undertake other duties that may be required from time to time within the general scope of the post.

Strong understanding of NEC4 and/or JCT contracts, including change control, compensation events and commercial management principles.
Experience developing, managing and reporting project programmes using MS Project and/or Primavera P6.
Proven ability to lead multidisciplinary teams, consultants, contractors and specialist utility providers through all phases of project delivery.
