• Manage budgets, reporting, risk registers, and programme timelines.
• Champion sustainability and energy efficiency initiatives, particularly within lighting and infrastructure upgrades.

About You

• Demonstrable experience in delivering capital works or infrastructure projects within a live, operational environment - ideally healthcare or complex public estates.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to engage confidently at all levels.
• Strong technical and commercial understanding of project delivery, including M&E systems, construction processes, and CDM regulations.
• Ability to manage multiple concurrent workstreams and drive collaborative delivery.
• Relevant qualifications (e.g. Degree or equivalent in Project Management, Construction, or Engineering Prince2/APM beneficial).

What's on Offer

This is a rare opportunity to play a key role in the modernisation of critical hospital infrastructure - ensuring safe, efficient, and sustainable environments for patients and staff.
