The M25 is one of our Flagship projects in the UK! It is the most used part of the UK Strategic Road Network with it seeing over 200,000 vehicles per day and it’s a critical infrastructure asset for personal and goods vehicles into and around our capital. The network includes around 800 structures and 5 tunnels, so it requires high levels of performance, constant improvement and repairs to keep it operating smoothly.

We’ve formed a Joint Venture project called Connect Plus Services (CPS) to work with our partners to widen, operate and maintain the M25 under a 30-year contract and we are looking for a Planner to join our assets inspections team.

This role is central to creating, maintaining and communicating project delivery schedules using specialist planning tools (Primavera P6) to ensure that Inspections are completed on time.

The Inspections Planner will work closely with the Inspections team, subcontractors and key stakeholders to produce accurate and reliable inspection schedules. They will also produce regular reports showing progress compared to agreed baselines, showing reasons for deviation.

An important part of this role is also to support the Commercial team in assessing the impact of Compensation Events under the NEC contract. Using the project schedule, they will make assessments of changes, including Extensions of Time and communicate clearly and in an evidence-based manner on the results of this analysis
