Involve Recruitment are seeking an experienced Project Manager to join our consultancy team, working with some of the industry's leading transportation agencies and contractors.

The successful candidate will lead rail infrastructure projects from inception to completion, ensuring successful delivery to time, budget, and quality standards.

This is a client-facing role, suited to a proactive individual with a proven track record of managing complex infrastructure schemes within a consultancy environment, ideally under NEC contracts.

This is a hybrid role with at least two days on site.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead and manage the full project lifecycle — from early-stage feasibility and design through to construction, commissioning, and final handover.
  • Serve as the key interface between clients, contractors, design teams, and stakeholders.
  • Ensure compliance with contractual obligations (NEC ECC preferred), commercial targets, and project milestones.
  • Manage risk, cost, programme, quality, and change throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Provide strategic input into procurement, planning, and stakeholder management.
  • Prepare and present regular project progress reports to internal and external stakeholders.
  • Champion best practice in project delivery, safety, and quality assurance.

Requirements:

  • Demonstrable experience in managing rail infrastructure projects within a consultancy environment.
  • Proven track record delivering projects under NEC contracts (particularly ECC), including experience with change control and contract administration.
  • Strong understanding of the project lifecycle within the transport sector — particularly rail, but highways or other major infrastructure experience may also be considered.
  • Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills.
  • Ability to lead multidisciplinary teams and manage both client and contractor relationships effectively.
