Job description
We are seeking experienced Planners to join a large civil engineering contractor delivering major civil engineering and water infrastructure projects across South Wales and the South Coast, including the Southampton area.
This is an excellent opportunity for a Planner with approximately 4–5 years’ experience to join an established contractor working on a range of water-related projects. The role will involve working closely with project teams to develop, maintain and monitor project programmes, ensuring works are delivered safely, efficiently and in line with agreed timescales.
Candidates should ideally have experience within the water or utilities sector, alongside a good understanding of planning processes and project controls. The client also operates in the Energy sector, and has projects across the rest of the UK.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop, maintain and update detailed project programmes in line with project requirements.
- Work closely with site teams, project managers and other stakeholders to monitor progress and identify potential delays.
- Support the planning and coordination of civil engineering and water infrastructure works.
- Track programme performance, identify critical path activities and highlight potential risks.
- Prepare programme updates, progress reports and planning information for project reviews.
- Assist with the development of mitigation plans and recovery programmes where required.
- Liaise with operational teams to ensure programmes reflect site activities, resource requirements and project milestones.
- Support effective communication between site-based and office-based teams.
Candidate Requirements
- Approximately 4–5 years’ experience in a Planning role within civil engineering, infrastructure or a related construction environment.
- Ideally, experience working on water infrastructure, water treatment, utilities or associated civil engineering projects.
- Experience using planning software such as Asta Powerproject or Primavera P6 would be advantageous.
- Strong organisational, analytical and communication skills.
- The ability to work collaboratively with site teams and project stakeholders.
- A proactive approach to identifying programme risks and resolving planning challenges.
- Flexibility to travel to project sites across the relevant regions.
Working Arrangements
The role offers a flexible working model, combining time on site, in the office and working from home, depending on project requirements. Some flexibility around travel and working locations will be available. Salary is dependent on experience, with permanent candidates preferred. Candidates from all locations will be considered if you are open to travelling, however the closer to the projects, the better.
