We are working with a regional Tier 2 contractor based near Newbury. The company is a privately owned, profitable business that works solely across the South of England and believes in delivering quality, defect-free schemes to clients.
They target schemes between £8 million and £35 million on frameworks and repeat business opportunities with long-term clients. Typical schemes include care developments, schools, multi-phased education schemes, student accommodation, PRS developments, office and residential schemes, hotels, and multi-use retail and leisure developments—a really wide and diverse range of projects to work on.
The role includes early involvement at the tender and bid stage, working with the estimating, design, and commercial teams to establish specifications, phasing, strategy, and then forming the initial construction programme. You will work to update and amend both the overall programme as well as individual programmes and phases for each package of works on site until the final bid/tender is submitted. You will then be responsible for managing the programme through to the start on site with the delivery and be expected to regularly visit the site, update both short and long-term programmes, identify opportunities to save time, and look ahead to identify clashes and other issues on site. You will work with the design team and supply chain to ensure work packages are released on time, all bespoke items and packages are let in good time, and monitor progress to ensure key dates are met. You will continue to work with the commercial and design teams to evolve and adapt future bids and programmes for best practice.
You will ideally have worked for a regional contractor on schemes above £3 million and have experience of both D&B projects and framework negotiations. You should be able to demonstrate excellent work practices, attention to detail, organizational skills, and the ability to identify opportunities and potential issues. You must be able to use software such as Asta, 4 Projects, and have experience of working with BIM and BREEAM.
They are looking for experienced Planners as well as senior staff as part of their controlled growth and development, and now is a brilliant time to join the business. They offer a competitive salary and package, hybrid working options, full training, bespoke development packages, and unlimited opportunities for advancement. They regularly recognize, reward, and promote the best internal talent.
