Ihr Beitrag bei uns
The Technical Controlling role is a specific and crucial role established within the STRABAG Group globally. Technical Controlling is a result‑driven, internally focused project management system. It combines typically UK Quantity Surveying and Cost Engineering responsibilities to ensure compliance, transparency, and alignment with Group‑wide processes.
Why Consider this route?
Are you an experienced Quantity Surveyor or Site Engineer looking for a career pivot that offers higher visibility and strategic impact?
We are looking for internal and external candidates to join the growing Technical Controlling function. This is a unique "Dual Role" opportunity: you will retain and use your core professional skills (QS or Engineering) whilst specialising in the critical financial and operational standards that drive STRABAG's success.
This role is the primary bridge between Site Operations and the Business Unit. You will not just report on the numbers; you will influence them.
The "Dual Role" Advantage:
Unlike a standard commercial role, this position allows you to:
Stay close to the action: You remain integrated with the on-site delivery team, applying your practical construction knowledge daily.
Gain High-Level Exposure: You will report directly into the controlling function, giving you visibility with Project
Management and Sub-Division Directors that is not common on a project basis.
Master the "Strabag Way": You will become the project expert on Common Project Standards (CPS) and our internal processes, making you a highly valuable asset to the Group.
Key Responsibilities:
Operational Control: Use your technical/commercial background to monitor Costs, Revenue / Results, Productivity, and Budgets in real-time, preventing issues before they impact the bottom line.
The "Bridge": Act as the interface between the Project Manager and the Business Unit, translating site activities into accurate financial data.
Forecasting: Proactively identify deviations from the schedule and cost forecasts using your engineering/QS judgment.
System Integrity: Ensure the accuracy of the Working Budget and Estimates within iTWO, ensuring the data reflects reality.
Process Champion: Drive the "Feedback Loop", capturing lessons learned from the site and feeding them back to Pre-Construction to improve future tenders.
Who are we looking for?
This is a development role for high-potential internal staff. We are looking for:
Current Role: A Quantity Surveyor or Site Engineer currently working within Strabag or other main contractors.
Experience: Proven experience on site with a strong understanding of how projects are built and managed.
Mindset: You are "Process-Driven" but "Practical". You understand the importance of the CPS but know how to apply it to real site challenges.
Ambition: You want to move beyond day-to-day transactional work and into strategic analysis and reporting.
What we offer?
Mentorship: Direct support from the Head of Technical Controlling and Senior Controllers.
Autonomy: The chance to "own" the controlling function for your project(s).
Career Security: Technical Controlling is a growth area for the Build Sub-Division. As we scale to new Business Units and win further projects, your specialised skillset will be in high demand.
