This is not a role for someone looking for an easy project. It is a high‑pressure, fast‑track delivery environment where projects are completed significantly faster than traditional contractors through overlapping trades, aggressive programmes, and full lifecycle control.

You will take full ownership of a large‑scale industrial new build project across sectors such as data centres, pharmaceuticals and logistics, operating as the on‑site leader from early‑stage design through to commissioning and handover. You will be working for a contractor known for delivering projects faster than competitors, where decisions are made quickly, expectations are high, and performance is everything.

• Full ownership of a high‑value industrial construction project
• Drive an aggressive programme with overlapping civils, structure and MEP packages
• Lead from the front on site – not a desk‑based role
• Manage and push multidisciplinary teams to hit critical milestones
• Make key decisions quickly to maintain programme and delivery targets
• Act as the key interface between client, consultants and delivery teams
• Ensure safety, quality and delivery are maintained under tight timelines

• Proven experience delivering large‑scale projects in industrial, pharmaceutical, logistics or mission‑critical environments
• Experience working on fast‑track or high‑pressure construction programmes
• Strong leadership presence able to challenge, influence and drive teams
• Comfortable operating in environments where expectations are high and timelines are tight
• Track record of delivering projects on time under pressure

• Fast‑paced, demanding environment not for everyone
• High level of autonomy and accountability; you will be expected to own problems and solve them quickly
• Strong rewards, progression and long‑term opportunity for those who perform
