Construction Logistics Manager (Aerodromes) - KSIA

Thriving communities. Healthy cities. A brighter future. What we do is more than deliver major projects, we work every day to make the world better for everyone. If you want to join a company invested in you and your success, join us as a Construction Manager. We want you to be empowered to deliver the boldest solutions for everyday living. As a part of Jacobs Construction Advisory, you will support the successful delivery of projects by providing constructability expertise, primarily during outline design and consent phases. You will provide expertise to help create the construction strategy, phasing, methodology and programme, taking account of and integrating emerging environmental and logistical constraints and construction best practice, specifically relating to airfield and airport programmes, and providing expertise to design teams on the buildability and best practices through the construction phase. The role will involve liaison between other Jacobs departments, disciplines, contractors and external agencies and clients. You will be required to provide technical input mainly during pre-construction, including:

• Airfield and Airport systems Phasing.
• Airfield Utility Networks and Systems Removals, Diversions and new Installation.

• Airport Construction, Logistics & Traffic management.

• CDM and Principal Designer, Principal Contractor obligations, or other local regulatory responsibilities.
Responsibilities typically entail producing the constructability input for specific projects including drafting option assessments, assessing construction risks with proposed mitigations and provision of best practice advice. Key to the role is informing the design and enabling change in the permanent solution to create a more buildable, more reliable, safer solution. The post holder will therefore be able to work independently albeit under the supervision of a senior, take initiative on their own and have an eye for detail when reviewing proposed schemes. You will need a good level of health, safety and environmental experience as a key responsibility of the role is to identify risks in these areas, proactively lead projects in navigating these considerations, and advise on appropriate mitigation options. The Construction Manager is required to co-ordinate, co-operate and liaise with other Jacobs departments, contractors, clients and potentially external bodies primarily for the purposes of design development. As such, you will require confidence, good communication and management skills to ensure that the constructability input is conveyed appropriately and given due consideration. You will have experience in working within the delivery of capital projects and will come from a civil engineering or building construction background. The role suits someone looking to transition into professional services from a main contractor, preferably with NEC Supervisor and comprehensive airfield utilities protection procedures and airfield infrastructure and asset phasing.
