Role: Project Director – High Voltage (Healthcare / Mission Critical)

Location: Kettering

Type: Full-time, Permanent

We’re working with a well-established M&E design & build contractor delivering complex, large-scale projects across the UK and Europe.

They’re now looking to bring in a Project Director with a strong High Voltage background to lead the delivery of a major hospital project in Kettering, with further mission critical and industrial projects lined up straight after.

This is very much a hands‑on leadership role, where you’ll take full ownership of delivery on technically demanding HV packages within live or critical environments.

What you’ll be doing

  • Leading the end‑to‑end delivery of a large‑scale HV‑focused healthcare project
  • Taking full responsibility from pre‑con, design coordination, construction through to commissioning and handover
  • Acting as the senior point of contact for the client, main contractor, and key stakeholders
  • Driving programme, quality, and commercial performance across the project
  • Managing and supporting a team of Project Managers, Engineers, and site teams
  • Overseeing HV installations, including substations, switchgear, and associated infrastructure
  • Ensuring works are delivered in line with programme, safety, and technical standards
  • Working closely with commercial teams on cost control, variations, and risk management
  • Leading progress meetings and providing clear reporting back into senior leadership
  • Setting the standard on HSE, RAMS, and overall site governance

What you will bring

  • Proven experience operating at Project Director or Senior Project Manager level
  • Strong background delivering High Voltage (HV) packages
  • Experience within healthcare, data centres, or other mission critical / regulated environments
  • Strong understanding of commissioning and integration of HV systems
  • Comfortable leading large teams and interfacing directly with clients and Tier 1 contractors
  • Solid commercial awareness across P&L, CVRs, variations, and risk
  • Able to operate in a high‑pressure, technically complex environment

This will suit you if

  • You’ve delivered large HV packages on complex builds, not just facilities or maintenance
  • You’re used to being the lead on site, not just part of the team
  • You can deal with clients, push programmes, and make decisions when needed
  • You’re comfortable in environments where quality and compliance really matter (healthcare, DCs, pharma etc.)
