Project Controls Manager (Rail) – Bid Opportunity
An exciting opportunity is available for an experienced Project Controls Manager to support the development and delivery of a major rail bid. This role will provide leadership across cost, planning, risk, change and reporting activities, ensuring that the tender submission is accurate, commercially robust and aligned with client requirements. You will work closely with technical, commercial, procurement and delivery teams to establish an integrated project controls approach from the earliest stages of the opportunity.
Key responsibilities will include developing and managing the bid programme, cost estimates, resource-loaded schedules and control account structures; coordinating inputs from multiple disciplines; and preparing clear, accurate reports for senior stakeholders. You will identify schedule, cost and delivery risks, maintain risk and opportunity registers, undertake scenario and sensitivity analysis, and support the development of mitigation plans. The role will also involve reviewing tender documentation, challenging assumptions, assessing productivity and sequencing, and ensuring that programme and cost information is fully traceable and compliant with governance requirements.
Applicants should have substantial project controls experience within the rail, transport, infrastructure or wider construction sector, ideally with a strong background in major bids or complex programmes. You will need proven knowledge of planning, estimating, cost control, earned value, risk management and change control, together with the ability to interpret contractual and technical information. Strong analytical, communication and stakeholder-management skills are essential, as is confidence working to demanding deadlines in a collaborative, fast-paced environment. Experience with industry-standard planning and cost management systems, along with relevant professional qualifications or membership of a recognised institution, would be advantageous.
