This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Planner to join the business and play a key role across both tender and live project planning.
You will be involved from early-stage bid support through to project delivery, working closely with pre-construction, commercial, and site teams to produce realistic, buildable programmes on fast-paced building projects.

* Managing change, delays, and programme updates in line with contractual requirements
* Identifying programme risks and opportunities and supporting mitigation strategies
* Communicating programmes clearly to internal teams and external stakeholders
* Producing visual reports to support project control, productivity, and delivery
* Acting as a key point of contact for planning across assigned projects
Planner – Experience Required
* Proven experience working for a main contractor on building projects
