  • Commission and manage delegated capital schemes, including contributions to business cases.
  • Oversee and monitor contractors to ensure compliance, quality, timelines and budget control.
  • Lead tender processes, evaluate submissions and oversee delivery through to completion and handover.
  • Provide technical, compliance and statutory guidance across all allocated projects.
  • Produce drawings, tender documents, specifications and evaluation reports.
  • Collaborate closely with onsite Estates/Facilities teams to ensure smooth transitions into operational use.
  • Develop, review and maintain risk assessments and method statements.

Ideal Candidate

  • Capital project management experience within complex organisations where operations must continue safely during works.
  • Strong background in refurbishment, installations, or construction-related delivery.
  • Confident coordinating contractors and stakeholders across multiple concurrent projects.
  • Able to operate in a fast-paced environment and hit the ground running.
