Description
Are you a seasoned project controls guru that is a bit tired of the standard old-fashioned way of doing things in the construction industry?
Do you get deep satisfaction from making things run more efficiently using a good dose of common sense and maybe a bit of technology?
Have you always cared about the importance of proper controls and the connection between the schedule and the real day-to-day delivery of the job?
Sounds like a dream. Well, it isn't, it is quite real

We are Laminar Projects

You don't like continuously receiving honest candid feedback
You prefer to do your own thing rather than work with a team
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you tell me more about what the role is like?
As a project controls manager we are sure you are more than aware of what a project controls manager does. But in Laminar things are a bit different. Project controls hasn't advanced much over the decades and we are changing that by bringing in high-end digital capability to automate and push us forward to predictive analytics. We are building products and publicly available documents to change the way projects think about and implement project controls. We aim to impact all projects, not just the ones we work on directly.
You will be leading controls in the context of either our PMO solutions or as part of our full project delivery teams. But as mentioned above you will be tasked with using these engagements to develop further the state of the art for future projects as well – no more reinventing the wheel.
What kinds of projects would I be working on?
It isn't uncommon for people to be exposed to several projects in their first year of joining us. You will work on many types of complex projects including; data centres, highways, railways, nuclear power plants, and pretty much any other type of complex project you can think of. (Check out our portfolio )
Who are our clients?
Our clients include major Owners/Operators, Main Contractors, and Subcontractors, with project values between £1m and £1B+ globally.
Where would I be working?
Some weeks you might be working from home all week. Others you might travel to sites or client offices to meet the construction teams and help them get organised in person. Maybe you will pop into our London office for a workshop/beer/social event. Maybe you will travel to exotic (and sometimes not) locations in Europe or the Middle East to visit clients. It really depends on what you want to get involved with and what fits with your life.
This where you work varies depending on what types of projects. Most of our team works predominantly from home with regular visits to projects. As an absolute maximum expectation, we attend projects 2-3 days a week if they are near where you live. But also be prepared to travel further afield 3 days every second week.
How does what I do connect with the long-term impact on the construction industry?
As a consultant in the field, you will be tasked with understanding and solving common problems. We don't want to reinvent the wheel every time so you will be responsible for documenting new solutions and evolving existing ones we have developed. The improvement never stops. This will go into our knowledge repository which we are going to open source to the industry.
The knowledge you capture will be used to develop new products which we will build. You will constantly be testing our products in the field so that we can rapidly iterate and improve them for anyone in the industry to use.
