Project Controller

At AVK we’re looking for a Project Controller to join our Finance team.

The Project Controller owns commercial finance integrity across project delivery — from handover through to outturn. The role holds ownership of the JCR process as the single source of truth for project financial performance, tracking actuals, ETC, outturn, risk and opportunity against the sold position.

Working closely with Commercial and Delivery teams, the Project Controller ensures margin erosion is identified early and escalated — not normalised — and that delivery financials remain disciplined against the assumptions the project was sold on.
