• Strong commercial acumen with the confidence to manage client relationships and internal stakeholders
• Experience across earthworks, structures, utilities, or power and energy infrastructure projects
• A practical, delivery-focused approach suited to live, operational construction sites
• Based within a reasonable commute of York or Leeds, given the site-based nature of the role

The Package

• £7,000 annual travel allowance or company car
• 27 days annual leave plus bank holidays
• Pension contribution
