Controls Project Manager
We are seeking an experienced Controls Project Manager to lead the planning, delivery and commissioning of controls and automation projects from initial concept through to completion. This role will suit a technically knowledgeable project professional who can coordinate multidisciplinary teams, manage customer expectations and ensure projects are delivered safely, on time, within budget and to the required quality standards.
Key responsibilities will include defining project scope, programmes, budgets and resource requirements; preparing and maintaining project documentation; and coordinating design, software development, panel manufacture, installation, testing and commissioning activities. You will work closely with engineers, subcontractors, suppliers and clients to resolve technical and commercial issues, monitor progress and manage changes effectively. The role will also involve reviewing specifications, functional design documents, risk assessments and method statements, while ensuring compliance with relevant legislation, industry standards and internal procedures. You will provide regular progress reports, oversee project costs and contribute to continuous improvement across project delivery processes.
Applicants should have proven experience managing controls, automation, electrical or systems integration projects, ideally within an engineering, manufacturing, process or infrastructure environment. A sound understanding of PLC, SCADA, HMI, instrumentation and industrial control systems is desirable, alongside experience of project planning, cost control, procurement and commissioning. You will be an organised and commercially aware professional with strong communication, negotiation and problem-solving skills. The ability to manage competing priorities, lead teams and build effective relationships at all levels is essential. A relevant engineering or project management qualification would be advantageous, as would experience using project management software and working to recognised delivery methodologies. This position may require occasional travel to customer or project sites.
