We are currently recruiting for an experienced Senior Project Manager to join a major infrastructure programme on the Isle of Skye. This is an opportunity to play a key role in the delivery of one of the UK's significant power infrastructure schemes, supporting the reinforcement of a 130km power line route through challenging and remote terrain.

The project involves the delivery of extensive civil engineering works associated with a major power line reinforcement scheme, including:

  • Road construction and access infrastructure
  • Drainage installation

  • Over 100 bridge crossings
  • Enabling works and associated civil infrastructure


This is a civil engineering-focused role and does not involve electrical transmission, substations, or power systems construction.
The scheme is currently progressing through development and pre-construction phases, requiring close coordination of design activities, stakeholder engagement, approvals, and construction planning ahead of delivery.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Managing project delivery across multiple work fronts
  • Coordinating design development and approvals
  • Working closely with Construction Managers and delivery teams
  • Overseeing programme, cost, risk, and stakeholder management
  • Driving health, safety, quality, and environmental standards
  • Supporting the transition from development into construction


Requirements

  • Proven experience as a Senior Project Manager on major civil engineering projects
  • Strong background in linear infrastructure projects (highways, utilities, pipelines, rail, transmission routes, etc.)
  • Experience coordinating design teams and managing approvals processes
  • Strong stakeholder management and leadership skills
  • Ability to operate effectively within remote site environments


Package

  • £700 per day Umbrella PAYE
  • Employer contributions included in line with company arrangements
  • 6-month rolling contract
  • Long-term project opportunity
  • 10 days on / 4 days off rotation
  • Site-based role on the Isle of Skye
  • Camp accommodation available
  • Accommodation cost payable by the individual at approximately £50-£60 per day
