    Description

    The Role

    Purpose of the role

    You will be helping to plan some of the most complex and interesting projects in the world.

    Team

    This role is part of our Project Management Consultancy which focuses on:

  • Understanding what the real problems of projects are
  • Implementing the best solutions to those problems
  • Developing scalable best practices, tools and technology

    • More specifically you will be part of our Project Planning Discipline Team. Your initial leader will be one of our planning discipline directors.

    Your top 3 objectives:

  • To make construction projects deliver to near perfection
  • To create scalable and repeatable solutions to common problems
  • To develop yourself and everyone around you

    • Your top 5 responsibilities:

  • Understand the plan : Fully understand the project plan for one or more projects and ensure that the project is working to it effectively through the power of visual planning. Ensure hidden risks are identified and delays are mitigated.
  • Own the outcome: You may not be the project manager ultimately responsible for the results but you are sure as heck responsible for putting in your best effort to ensure the project's understanding and focus on the plan no matter how stubborn they are
  • Report and inform : Equip stakeholders at all levels with all the information they need to deliver their part of the project more efficiently and effectively. Lead collaborative 4D workshops and produce the necessary reports to achieve this.
  • Make scalable solutions: Develop scalable and repeatable best practices and tools in collaboration with the team so that long-term impact is achieved.
  • Develop everyone: Maximise the development of your team personally and professionally and educate our clients to improve as well. (even if you are junior you can help your leader develop too)

    • Your Capabilities:

    We train you in the full breadth of project management skills including planning, commercial, leadership, communication and technology so that you become an expert project leader equipped to transform any project you touch.

    Must-Have (The fundamentals)

  • Mastery : At least 2+ years of experience in 4D/visual planning in construction projects using Synchro, Navisworks or other 4D tools. At least 5+ years of experience in the delivery of complex construction projects.
  • Communication : Proficient communicator in written and verbal English
  • Leadership : A relentless approach to dealing with people
  • Impact : A track record of making projects and organisations better beyond just doing the basics

    • Nice to Have (If you don't have it now you will be trained intensively after joining)

  • Mastery : Experience in project planning, including the use of planning software like P6 or Asta Powerproject, 3D modeling experience using Sketch-up, Revit or other 3D tools. A data-driven approach to problem-solving.
  • Communication : The charisma, influence and presence to get construction people to do new things and take the best approach
  • Leadership : A proven leader/coach/developer of teams or teams of teams
  • Impact : A track record of implementing scalable and repeatable solutions in projects and organisations that had a significant positive impact

    • Laminar isn't the place for you if any of the following is true:

  • You want an easy, chilled-out role without much challenge
  • You like to be the smartest person in the room
  • 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?

    A project is a set of activities delivered in sequence each being managed by different people/organisations. This is why the plan is always at the core of the project.

    So the first thing you will learn to do is project planning to the very highest standard. This means you will be at the core of the project devising strategies and tactics to improve the way the project is delivered. You will translate this knowledge into a logic-linked plan and analyse it using planning software. Then you will use this knowledge to help the teams understand what they need to prioritise to make the project as successful as possible. If the project were a ship you would be the navigator.

    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. ()

    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 site 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 work 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.
