  • Maintain robust governance, reporting, and risk management processes.

4. People Development & Performance

  • Lead and develop high-performing delivery and construction teams.
  • Drive continuous improvement, efficiency, and best practice adoption.

About You-

  • Proven leadership ability, capable of driving high-performance teams.
  • Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, ensuring engagement across multiple functions.
  • Experience in CDM compliance, project delivery, and regulatory environments.
  • Track record of capital scheme delivery within the utilities sector.
