We are working with a specialist contractor on a major new development near Andover. The company is a privately owned, profitable business that works solely across the South of England and believes in delivering quality, defect-free schemes to clients.

You will be joining the delivery and commercial team to help them achieve completion and handover in 18 months. The wider role includes early involvement at tender and bid stages, working with the estimating, design, and commercial teams to establish specifications, phasing, and strategy, and then forming the initial construction programme. You will work to update and amend both the overall programme and individual programmes and phases for each package of works on site until the final bid/tender is submitted. You will then be responsible for managing the programme through to start on site with the delivery team, and be expected to regularly visit the site, update both short and long-term programmes, identify opportunities to save time, and look ahead to identify clashes and other issues on site. You will work with the design team and supply chain to ensure work packages are released on time, and all bespoke items and packages are let in good time, monitoring progress to ensure key dates are met. You will continue to work with the commercial and design teams to evolve and adapt future bids and programmes for best practice.
