Providing senior leadership input to programme assurance activities, including readiness reviews, gateway reviews and audits, and driving continuous improvement across delivery.

You’ll need to have:

A degree or equivalent qualification in a relevant discipline and or a recognised project management qualification such as APM, PRINCE2 or PMI, or equivalent experience.
Proven experience leading complex projects or major work packages within construction or infrastructure programmes.
Experience working in regulated or high assurance environments such as defence, aviation, nuclear or major infrastructure.
Strong commercial awareness with experience operating robust governance, stakeholder management and change control processes.
Demonstrable experience leading multi-disciplinary teams and coordinating multiple delivery partners.
Excellent communication and leadership skills, with the confidence to engage and present at senior stakeholder level.
Flexibility and willingness to travel to the Preston or Lancashire area as required.
Eligibility to obtain and maintain UK security clearance.

What’s on offer:

Car allowance.
Hybrid working.
Medical health cover.
Life insurance.
Income protection insurance.
Pension scheme.
