Job description

Company cultures & job summary Our client is a well-respected engineering and technology consultancy with a strong track record of delivering some of the UK's most complex and sensitive government programmes. They're not a typical consultancy — they're genuinely people-first, collaborative, and deeply technical, with a culture that backs its staff to grow and thrive.

This is a team that takes its work seriously because the outcomes genuinely matter.

The P3M Consultancy division is busy — really busy — and they're looking for two Consultants to join their Secure Government team in Gloucestershire. You'll be working across a varied portfolio of programmes, from short-term advisory assignments to long-term embedded delivery roles within classified client environments. The projects are complex, the stakes are high, and the work is genuinely rewarding.

To be considered, you'll need solid, demonstrable experience in Project Management or P3M delivery — ideally gained in Defence, Central Government, Energy or Transport. You'll need a strong grasp of PM methodologies including RAIDO, stakeholder management, governance and assurance, and you'll be comfortable identifying problems and driving solutions in high-pressure environments. Critically, you must hold or be eligible for eDV (Enhanced Developed Vetting) clearance — this is non-negotiable given the nature of the work.

Working Patterns 4-5 days on site per week in Cheltenham or London.
