Job description

Planning Engineer – P6 / NEC / Earned Value

Location: Hybrid working, 2-3 days remote and 2-3 days in the office in London.

We work with planning professionals supporting major infrastructure programmes, primarily within consultancy environments, where strong technical capability and commercial awareness are essential.

Our clients are looking for planners who understand the realities of complex programme delivery - from P6 schedule development and change control, through to working under NEC contracts and applying earned value principles in live environments.

Whether your background sits firmly in planning or spans wider project controls, we support professionals across infrastructure who want roles that genuinely match their experience, exposure, and long-term direction.

We take a confidential, consultative approach, supporting candidates who are actively exploring the market as well as those open to the right opportunity.

Why work with us?

• Discreet representation - nothing shared without your approval
• Access to consultancy-led infrastructure programmes
• Honest insight into market demand, rates, and progression
• CV, interview, and offer support
• A long-term recruitment partner, not a transactional one

Experience we support:

• P6 planning within major infrastructure programmes
• Consultancy-side planning or project controls
• Change control and baseline management
• Earned value and performance reporting

If you’re working in planning or project controls within infrastructure and want a recruiter who understands both the technical detail and the consultancy landscape, we’d be happy to have a confidential conversation.
