I’m recruiting for a major site-based programme in South Wales and need proper project controls and planning people.

Not reporting-only.
Not dashboard theatre.
Not F9 operators.

This is for people who understand that planning and controls protect delivery, cost visibility, programme integrity and commercial position.

Roles available:

Project Controls Manager
Cost & Commercial bias

Day rate considered around £600/day maybe £700

4 x Project Planners
£400–£500/day

1 x Lead Planner
£550–£650/day
Potential stretch towards £700/day for the right person

Contract details:

3-year contract
Inside IR35
South Wales
Site-based initially
Some hybrid possible once properly embedded into the project

The right people will be able to evidence:

- Live site planning or project controls experience
- P6 capability beyond basic updates
- Progress validation against actual site activity
- Sequencing logic and critical path ownership
- Cost, commercial, change or NEC awareness
- Confidence working with delivery, engineering, commercial and senior stakeholders
- Ability to challenge weak logic, poor progress data and unrealistic durations

This is not a role for someone who only reports what has already gone wrong.

It is for people who can help control the work before it drifts.

If you are based in South Wales, open to South Wales, or can commit to a site-led major programme for the right long-term contract, message me with:
