Strong experience leading project controls or PMO functions within major programmes, ideally in regulated or high assurance environments such as defence, aviation, nuclear or major infrastructure.
Proven capability across planning, cost control, risk management, change control and performance reporting.
Experience implementing project controls governance, standards and toolsets across multi‑partner delivery environments.
Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, with confidence operating and influencing at senior levels.
Flexibility and willingness to work from 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.
Discretionary annual salary reviews.
Family friendly policies.
22 days annual leave + 2 Mace days + 3 days Christmas shutdown + Bank holidays.
