Project Manager – Energy Sector

As the Project Manager, you will

• Plan and manage the end-to-end project lifecycle (design, procurement, construction, commissioning, handover) and lead safe, efficient delivery of civil and structural works to meet programme, quality and commercial targets.
• Develop the Project Execution Strategy covering construction methodology, phasing, logistics and temporary works.
• Integrate HV sequencing, access constraints and energisation milestones into project programmes and planning.
• Coordinate technical inputs from civil, structural, geotechnical, temporary works and HV interface specialists; manage design development and timely issue of construction information.
• Align closely with HV system teams on tolerances, interfaces, access requirements and sequencing throughout execution.
• Support supply chain strategy including early contractor involvement, tender evaluation, subcontractor selection, and management of self‑perform/subcontract teams.
• Lead risk and opportunity analysis (notably ground conditions, HV interfaces, site logistics), manage contract and programme obligations with mitigation/recovery plans, and monitor progress, performance and compliance (inspections, reporting, KPIs) ensuring CDM/HSE, environmental and quality system compliance.

We are looking for

• Proven track record delivering infrastructure or energy sector projects (substations, HVDC, power generation or similar).
• Strong civil/structural engineering background, including reinforced concrete, steelwork, earthworks and temporary works.
• Experience working on or interfacing with high‑voltage systems, ideally including 400kV transmission infrastructure and associated civil/structural requirements.
• Good awareness of high‑voltage system tolerances, access needs and interface constraints (full HV design experience not essential).
• Experience managing multidisciplinary teams and multiple technical interfaces.
• Strong understanding of construction contracts and commercial aspects.

What we offer

• 24/7 digital GP service for you and your family
• Financial wellbeing and employee assistance
• Enhanced family benefits (including maternity, paternity, dependants and parental bereavement leave)

Inclusion and Diversity

We thrive through embracing differences as we know that diversity opens a rich potential for new ways of thinking, helping us to build successful and high‑performing teams. We call it The Skanska Way.

Where possible, we offer a range of flexible working options, and we would be happy to discuss this at the application stage if this is something you’d like to explore.
