Are you a Quality Manager who has experience working on complex infrastructure delivery programmes such as Rail, Nuclear, Airports, Civils, Rail Systems, Power Stations, Water, Construction, and Aerospace? Do you want to work in a pivotal role within the UK's largest infrastructure project?
The client organization, which is building and then operating the UK's High-Speed Rail network, High Speed Two, is looking for 3 Quality Managers. The role provides leadership and support on Quality to HS2's delivery teams and the HS2 supply chain - integrated project team, across the design and build construction projects including 4 Major Civils, 4 New Stations, and 14 manufacture and supply Rail System Contracts. Instilling a right-first-time ethos to support the safe, efficient, and compliant delivery of projects is essential.
You will be working on a mixture of the contracts below:
£2 - 6bn main works design and build civil engineering contracts - tunnels, embankments, bridges, viaducts
£500 - 2bn New Build of Major Stations
£200 - 1bn - Rail Systems manufacture and supply - Signalling, telecoms, OHL, power, tracks
Working with the Heads of Quality for the Principal Contractors on each contract, you will provide the client view at a macro level, ensuring that the self-assuring principal contractors have the right processes in place to manage quality properly. This includes focusing on trend analysis of quality performance reports to drive improvements.
Key Duties will include:
Preparation and presentation of Quality management information for senior business leaders
Approval of top-level project quality plans
Preparation and trend analysis of quality performance reports
Driving structured problem solving and process, performance, efficiency, and compliance improvement opportunities
The role demands a minimum of 5 years of complex design and build major project quality management experience, working as a client, consultant, or main contractor from a Construction/Civils or System Engineering background. Experience in Rail and infrastructure (Construction) is preferred, but experience in manufacturing and supplying aerospace and rail systems is also acceptable.
Key Experience:
Familiarity with the NEC3 Contract environment, accustomed to managing or deploying work within NEC3 ECC quality requirements (contractually aware)
Experience in a complex, high-volume project documentation and deliverables management environment
Quality Manager experience on large complex construction design and build or manufacture and supply contracts (rail systems, aerospace)
Ideally, a lead auditor with experience in planning and executing external audits of tier 1 contractors
Suitable educational background to level 5 or above with additional competencies relating to quality management (e.g., technical diploma or degree, Chartered member of the CQI, or equivalent experience)
Ability to work with high-level data flows, extracting insights and presenting actionable recommendations to senior leadership
Work Situation:
Two of the roles will be based in Birmingham and one from London Euston. They operate a flexible hybrid working model, working 2-3 days a week from the office (50%). There will also be some travel to the site offices of the construction sites. Overall, this is a very flexible modern employer who cares about delivery, not where you deliver from. However, if you wish to be based in the office more, you can.
Salary:
Birmingham: £55,000 - £61,140 + Pension (6:12) + 25 holidays (potentially £64,197)
London: £60,000 - £65,580 + Pension (6:12) + 25 holidays (potentially £68,859)
