Company Overview
This company works on highways and specialises in traffic lights, road signs, civil engineering, and EV charging ports.

Projects will fall under NEC form of contract and will cover traffic lights, road signs, civil engineering, and EV charging ports/connections. They have a dynamic team and offer a relaxed culture where everyone gets involved to get the job done. Working in a small team means you'll juggle multiple projects simultaneously and you will be exposed to other key roles within the business along with Estimating and Quantity Surveying. The team often meets up for out-of-work activities such as golf and has team nights out and other social events. You will be office-based 8-5 Mon-Fri in Darlington and will be expected to visit sites as required.

Assist with the development, implementation, and adherence to the company's commercial strategy. Manage multiple projects of varying sizes and complexities. Ensure that clear and accurate budgets are prepared at tender award and then monthly per project via Elite. Procure works to meet and exceed programme and ideally tender budgets. Prepare sub-contract documents for tendering. Manage client and subcontractor accounts. Conduct weekly reviews and analysis of programme, progress, and cost monitoring. Manage change control. Engage in risk & opportunity management. Financial monitoring and reporting and liaising with the project team. Develop and agree on project forecasts with operational teams. Conduct detailed commercial analysis of various outputs. Provide commercial support on tenders. Submit monthly applications for payments. Follow the company-approved work procedures. As a rapidly growing business, no two days are ever the same, and your tasks will vary. The nature of the business and the pace they move at means that priorities change, and you will need to be comfortable with this.
Benefits
This is a growing business, and they are doing big and exciting things. They are looking for likeminded people who want to grow with them and be part of their journey. In return, they offer a collaborative working environment that encourages and supports continuous improvement and career development. There is a massive opportunity to develop your career here. It's a fast-growing business with plentiful opportunities to climb the ladder for the right person. You will be part of a dynamic team where you can make a difference in shaping the business. It's local work with a fixed place of work. Salary will be competitive depending on experience plus competitive car allowance or company car. Benefits include 25 days holiday plus bank holidays, pension, and other perks. Hard work and loyalty are recognised and rewarded. The projects they work on are diverse and challenging, ensuring no day is ever the same.
