About the Company
A growing independent multi-utility contractor delivering infrastructure for residential and commercial developments across London and the South East. Originally established as a water infrastructure specialist, the organisation has expanded its offering across electric, water, drainage and associated civils, operating within recognised industry frameworks and continuing to broaden its capabilities. With a strong pipeline of developer-led projects and an expanding operational structure, the business is in an exciting period of growth.
The Role

Working closely with site teams, supervisors, subcontractors and network operators, you will play a key role in ensuring projects are delivered safely, efficiently and in line with industry requirements. This position also offers the chance to shape internal systems, processes and delivery standards within a growing contractor environment.
Experience Required
- Proven experience managing utility or infrastructure projects end-to-end, from pre-construction through to final delivery.
- Strong electrical project knowledge, ideally gained within multi-utility, ICP, connections, substation or related environments.
- Experience coordinating programmes, costs, subcontractors, delivery teams and operational issues within a contractor setting.
- Good working knowledge of network operators and industry standards, including experience liaising with DNOs such as UKPN, SSE or similar.
