The posting

Do you want to take ownership of a varied portfolio of projects at the heart of a fast-growing energy consultancy? As Project Manager, you will lead the delivery of a growing and increasingly complex portfolio of design and construction projects within our Energy Consultancy (EC) division, with a pipeline currently valued at over £8.5M, supporting the UK's energy networks.

You will be the primary point of accountability for your projects, from inception to completion, making sure they are delivered efficiently, profitably and to a consistently high standard, in line with NEC3/NEC4 contract requirements, our procedures and our quality management system. You will also play an important part in mentoring junior colleagues and helping to shape how our project delivery function grows.

Cluttons is investing significantly in Energy Consultancy, adding people, service lines and geographies to serve an expanding client base across the energy and utility sector. Our projects are growing in number, scale and complexity, and we need an experienced Project Manager to help us deliver them well. This is a genuine opportunity to be part of a growth and success story from the inside.

This is a role you can make your own. You will work closely with experienced technical colleagues in a dynamic, forward-thinking and supportive environment, with real influence over how projects are delivered as the division scales.

The best things about the role

  • Ownership and variety: lead your own portfolio of design and construction projects, from inception to completion.
  • Real influence: help standardise delivery practices and shape how the project function scales.
  • Career growth: great professional growth potential in an expanding division, working alongside experienced PMO and operations colleagues.
  • Flexibility: a hybrid working pattern based from Oxford or London but remote working will also be considered for the right candidate.
  • A great team: work alongside experienced engineers, surveyors and CAD/BIM specialists in a supportive, collaborative culture.

Responsibilities

  • Provide full lifecycle project management of design projects within the Energy Consultancy portfolio, acting as the primary point of accountability for programme, cost and quality.
  • Ensure compliance with NEC3/NEC4 contract requirements, including communication protocols, early warnings, compensation events and change control.
  • Develop and maintain detailed project plans, programmes, risk registers, budgets and audit documentation.
  • Lead project and contract meetings with clients, consultants and contractors, building strong and lasting client relationships.
  • Ensure projects are delivered in line with project governance and QA requirements.
  • Support the mentoring and development of project colleagues, helping to enable succession planning.
  • Drive standardisation in delivery practices across the Energy Consultancy portfolio, sharing lessons learned and best practice.
  • Contribute to planning for operational expansion, including resourcing and scalability, reporting on progress, risk and financial performance to the Head of Projects.

Requirements

  • Recognised project management qualification (e.g. PRINCE2 Practitioner, APM PMQ or PMP).
  • Desirable: degree (or equivalent) in project management, construction management, engineering, architecture or a related discipline.

Experience

  • Substantial experience in project management, ideally of design and construction projects.
  • Proven experience managing projects under NEC3 or NEC4 contracts, with strong contract administration skills.
  • Desirable: experience standardising processes across multiple projects or programmes.
  • Desirable: understanding of public sector project delivery or multi-client environments.

Skills and Knowledge

  • Strong leadership skills, with the ability to mentor and develop junior team members.
  • High level of commercial awareness.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the confidence to lead client and contractor meetings.
  • Highly organised, able to prioritise competing demands across multiple projects.
  • Proficient in project management tools (e.g. MS Project) and Microsoft Office, particularly Excel.

Benefits

  • Hybrid working - to give you the flexibility you need
  • Holidays: 27 days and up to 30 days
  • Car allowance
  • Private health insurance - individual cover
  • Enhanced auto enrolment pension scheme - to help you save for the future

  • Interest free season ticket loans
  • Cycle to work scheme - discounted bicycles
  • Flu and eye care vouchers - to keep you healthy
  • Employee Assistance Programme - 24/7 health & wellbeing support
  • Help@Hand Remote GP app - to give you and your family access to medical experts quickly
  • Family & wellbeing policy - including enhanced maternity pay, menopause support, neurodiversity support, carer support, company sick pay and much more

Plus a Flexible benefits policy that allows you to pick and choose additional benefits as below:

  • Purchasing up to 5 days additional holiday
  • Discounted gym membership
  • Discounted dental insurance
  • Discounted private medical insurance for family cover
  • Discounted critical health insurance and more

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
