Support annual funding, forecasting and programme-planning requirements within a publicly funded environment. What We're Looking For You are likely to bring: Proven experience leading large Project Controls teams. Strong experience across Cost, Planning/Scheduling, Risk, Estimating, Change and Performance Management. Major project delviery experience within a publicly funded or heavily regulated environment. Experience from major rail, infrastructure, aviation, nuclear or similarly complex programmes. Strong understanding of NEC3 and/or NEC4 contracts. Proven experience with EVM and integrated performance reporting. Experience presenting complex Project Controls information to Board, Executive or senior programme-level stakeholders.

Relevant backgrounds could include HS2, Crossrail, Thames Tideway, HS1, major airport programmes, Hinkley Point C, Sizewell C or other major regulated infrastructure programmes. Experience with Primavera P6, EVM systems and other major-project controls platforms would also be highly relevant. Career Progression This role offers a genuine opportunity to develop towards Director of Project Controls level within HS2. The current Director-level position sits at approximately £170,000 £200,000 + executive package, providing a clear progression route for an exceptional Head of Project Controls who can demonstrate strong leadership, programme-level thinking and the ability to operate effectively within HS2's complex governance environment.
