🚧 Senior Planner – Major Infrastructure Programme

📍 Birmingham | Hybrid (2 days onsite)

🏢 Permanent : £60k–£80k DOE

Ready to step into a senior role where your expertise genuinely shapes delivery? We’re supporting a leading client on a major infrastructure upgrade framework in Birmingham, seeking an experienced Senior Planner to play a key role in driving programme certainty across a high-profile project.

This is a chance to influence strategy from the outset—working at the centre of a complex, multi-stakeholder environment where strong planning leadership really matters.

As a senior member of the project team, you will:

• Lead the development and ownership of fully logic-linked construction programmes using Primavera P6
• Drive planning strategy from tender stage through to delivery
• Shape construction methodology, sequencing, and resource strategies
• Ensure programmes align with contractual obligations and project requirements
• Embed robust project controls, forecasting, and performance reporting
• Mentor and support junior planners, championing best practice
• Collaborate closely with design, engineering, commercial, and delivery teams to keep milestones on track

You’re a confident, proactive planner who can balance detail with the bigger picture and influence teams at all levels.

• Proven experience delivering major infrastructure programmes (£300m+)
• Advanced expertise in Primavera P6 (ASTA and 4D planning experience advantageous)
• Strong understanding of NEC contracts and key commercial drivers
• A relevant degree (Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or similar)
• Experience across the full project lifecycle, from pre-construction through delivery

If you’re looking for a senior planning role where your insight and leadership truly make an impact, this opportunity offers both challenge and long-term progression.
