• Oversee programme, cost, and risk management across the HV electrical scope
• Ensure compliance with relevant HV standards, regulations, and health & safety legislation
• Report on progress, risks, and key decisions to senior stakeholders

About You

• Proven experience as a Project Manager within HV transmission, substation, or major electrical infrastructure projects
• Strong understanding of HV systems (400kV experience highly desirable)

• Excellent stakeholder management skills, with experience working alongside principal contractors and design consultants
• Relevant qualifications (e.g., Engineering degree, PMP, APM, or equivalent) desirable
• Full UK driving licence, with flexibility to be based on-site in Snowdonia

What’s on Offer

• 70,000 – 80,000 basic salary, negotiable dependent on experience
• Attractive benefits package
