Senior Project Planner

Description

• Implement and maintain Project Controls with accurate forecasting and reporting.
• Integrated delivery: Work directly with our in-house specialists – from structures and MEP to plant hire and off-site manufacturing – applying real build logic rather than subcontractor dates.
• Lead and coordinate planning and programme management from tender through delivery.
• Develop and maintain robust, logic-linked construction programmes.
• Mentor and develop planning team members and drive process improvement.
• Provide expert input on construction sequencing, methodology, and resourcing.
• Ensure compliance with contractual and project requirements.
• Foster collaboration across design, engineering, and delivery teams to achieve milestones.

Requirements

• Experience across the full project lifecycle – from pre-construction to delivery.
• A strong understanding of NEC contracts and commercial awareness.
• A degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or a related discipline.
• Planning matters: Your insight shapes strategy and drives delivery.
• The ability to lead, mentor, and influence across multidisciplinary teams.
• Proven planning experience on major infrastructure projects (£300m+) – ideally in the power or energy sector.
• Chartered status (CIOB, ICE) or working towards it.
• Proficiency in Primavera P6 (ASTA and 4D modelling advantageous).

Benefits

• Career growth: Our structured career toolkits and leadership support put your progression front and centre.
• A collaborative community: Join a 130+ strong national planning team with shared standards, mentorship, and support.
