Assistant Project Manager - Heavy Civil
We are seeking an Assistant Project Manager to support the successful delivery of major heavy civil construction projects. This is an excellent opportunity for a motivated construction professional to develop their project management expertise while working alongside experienced project leaders, engineers, subcontractors, and site teams. Projects may include roads, bridges, utilities, earthworks, drainage, concrete structures, and other large-scale infrastructure works.
In this role, you will assist with planning, coordinating, and monitoring project activities from pre-construction through to completion. Key responsibilities will include maintaining project schedules, tracking progress, preparing reports, supporting cost and change control, reviewing drawings and specifications, and helping to resolve technical or commercial issues. You will contribute to procurement and subcontractor management, coordinate with consultants and suppliers, support contract administration, and ensure that project documentation is accurate and up to date. A strong focus on health and safety, quality assurance, environmental compliance, and productive stakeholder relationships will be essential. You may also attend site meetings, assist with inspections, monitor work against programme requirements, and help ensure that construction activities meet approved standards and specifications.
Applicants should have experience in heavy civil construction, infrastructure, or a related engineering environment, together with a relevant qualification in civil engineering, construction management, or a comparable discipline. Knowledge of construction methods, project controls, scheduling, cost management, and contract processes is highly desirable. The successful candidate will be organised, commercially aware, and confident communicating with people at all levels. Strong attention to detail, sound problem-solving skills, and the ability to manage competing priorities are essential. Familiarity with project management and document control software, along with the ability to interpret technical drawings and project documentation, will be advantageous. A current driver’s licence and the flexibility to work across active construction sites may also be required.
