Job Description
My client, an established name in power and utilities in the UK's energy infrastructure sector, is looking to appoint an experienced and tenacious Framework / Programme Director to take ownership of a landmark £150M+ high-voltage design and construction framework.
This is a unique opportunity to play a key role in Net Zero Teesside - one of Europe's most ambitious energy and low-carbon infrastructure programmes. The project will deliver the largest private electricity network in Europe, supporting clean energy and low-carbon manufacturing on a national scale.
Key Responsibilities:
Lead the end-to-end delivery of a high-value HV framework, managing engineering, construction, and design workstreams.
Take full ownership of framework P&L, ensuring strong commercial performance and compliance with NEC4 Option C contracts.
Act as the senior point of contact for the client, suppliers, internal teams, and subcontractors, ensuring collaborative and high-quality delivery.
Manage a dedicated team of project professionals and coordinate supplier activities across multiple work packages.
Ensure all works are delivered safely, efficiently, and in line with agreed budgets, timeframes, and quality standards.
Drive governance, reporting, and risk management activities across the programme.
Support future commercial opportunities and work closely with pre-contract and estimating teams on pipeline activity.
About you:
A tenacious, strong leader with demonstrable experience delivering large-scale engineering or construction programmes.
Hands-on, confident, and able to manage suppliers and subcontractors within complex delivery environments.
Deep working knowledge of NEC4 Option C contracts - including target cost control, early warnings, and scope management.
Ideally from a utilities or HV background, although senior candidates from the wider construction sector will also be considered.
Comfortable working in an office-based environment; permanent office facilities are currently being constructed at Teesworks.
Degree or HNC in Engineering, Construction, Project or Commercial Management (or equivalent).
Full UK driving licence.
Why Apply?
Be at the heart of Net Zero Teesside, the UK's most high-profile low-carbon and energy infrastructure project.
Long-term career opportunity with a globally recognised energy organisation.
Clear succession route to senior leadership roles - this position is earmarked as a future step-up into programme leadership.
Opportunity to shape delivery from an early stage and leave a legacy on one of the most transformative infrastructure projects in Europe.
If you're looking for a high-impact role with genuine long-term progression, this is a rare opportunity to be part of something nationally significant - with the scale, backing, and ambition to match.
