Lead the Analysis, Portfolio and Investment (API) Practice within the Asset and Network Planning directorate for the M25 Strategic Road Network, translating asset condition, performance, risk, cost intelligence and whole-life carbon impacts into contract-compliant investment strategies, effective maintenance approaches and efficient renewal programmes. The role spans Asset Data Intelligence, Lifecycle Planning & Prioritisation, Decision Support and Asset Strategy. Accountable for the quality and defensibility of the data, models and recommendations that shape investment decisions to handback. A senior, hands-on role in a small, high-performing team, contributing directly to analysis and assurance, leading complex stakeholder engagement, and briefing senior leaders and the client with clear, evidence-based advice. Success looks like auditable decisions with a clear line of sight from need to outcome, trusted tools aligned to real performance, plans delivered on time with minimal rework, and strong stakeholder confidence.
Leadership and business unit management – Lead and govern the API practice, setting priorities and standards and owning products, service outputs, assurance, peer review and sign-off routes.
Act as technical authority and stay hands-on, contributing to delivery (analysis, authoring, signoff and senior presentations) to produce robust and defensible investment recommendations to stakeholders.
Lifecycle planning and decision support – Own and operate lifecycle decision support tools, forecasting deterioration, optimising interventions and profiling investment to handback.
Define and assure model logic, assumptions and constraints, keeping tools current and aligned to observed asset performance.
Sign off outputs for contractual compliance and defensibility (Schedule 14, ACCP, handback), including scenario, sensitivity and risk analysis where needed.
Embed whole-life carbon accounting within lifecycle planning and option appraisal and, where relevant, assess wider environmental impacts (for example, air quality and noise), ensuring impacts are quantified, comparable across options, and used alongside cost, risk and performance in recommendations.
Asset investment strategy – Own and deliver the annual AMFP, coordinating inputs across CPS, CP, supply chain and client stakeholders to produce a coherent, assured and defensible plan on time.
Act as a trusted focal point for internal and external stakeholders, leading responses to complex investment and strategy questions with clear, evidence-based advice.
Develop and embed TOTEX-based investment strategies, translating objectives into practical decision rules, investment pathways and funding profiles.
Work in close partnership with the Head of Asset Management, Asset Sponsors and Asset Managers to shape investment justification, prioritisation criteria, condition methodologies, maintenance and renewal approaches, and performance outcomes, maintaining a clear line of sight from need to outcome.
Establish and govern prioritisation and recommendations, setting criteria, tools and assurance, resolving conflicts and alignment issues, and providing recommendation authority on strategic investment and risk positions (escalating to A&NP leadership where required).
Financial, commercial and stakeholder assurance – Provide analytical assurance and commercial support on assumptions, affordability and risk, with quantified evidence packs for standards change, deferral and risk transfer.
Influence senior stakeholders with concise advice and work with Delivery and Engineering to keep programmes practical and deliverable.
Asset data intelligence and governance – Drive the development and adoption of data governance and quality controls across inspections, surveys, inventories, performance and delivered works, working with the Head of Asset Management, Head of Assurance, Asset Sponsors and Asset Managers to embed consistent metrics, controls and reporting that drive traceability and auditability across contributing teams.
Integrate cross-asset datasets, document definitions and limitations, and produce repeatable insight that improves decisions and supports continuous improvement.
Develop and maintain the carbon data baseline for maintenance and renewal activities (materials, construction, transport and operational impacts where relevant), ensuring assumptions, factors and outputs are transparent, auditable and suitable for governance and client reporting.
