• Nuclear
• Utilities – Electrical, Water & Gas
• Transportation – Aviation, Highways & Rail

• 15+ years of postgraduate experience
• Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering
• Membership of APM (Association of Project Management)
• Strong client-facing skills, including pitching and presenting to clients
• Proven track record within the UK Construction Sector

Candidates must be based in the UK or Europe, as our client is not seeking sponsorship or to bring someone into the UK without prior knowledge of clients, supply chain, contracts, and working conditions.
