The role is based primarily from a UK engineering facility, with periodic travel to customer sites to support installation, commissioning, and final handover. Projects span Tier 1 high-volume automotive programmes, niche OEM vehicle platforms, and an expanding portfolio within wider general industry. The successful candidate will take full end-to-end ownership of automation and line-building projects, acting as the central coordination point between engineering, manufacturing, installation, supply chain, and customer stakeholders. There is a clear progression pathway into senior leadership, with future development toward a Head of Programmes role. Role & Responsibilities You will be responsible for the full lifecycle delivery of robotic automation and specialist tooling projects, from early concept and design through manufacture, installation, commissioning, and customer handover. This includes developing and managing project schedules, budgets, and technical oversight while ensuring delivery to customer specifications, regulatory requirements, and internal quality standards. The role involves leading multi-disciplinary engineering teams and subcontractors, managing scope and change control, and maintaining strong client relationships as the primary customer interface. You will be expected to provide regular programme updates, financial forecasts, and performance reports to senior stakeholders. Commercial responsibility is a key part of the position, including ownership of programme P&L, cost control, margin protection, contract management, variations, and procurement strategy for long-lead and critical equipment. You will also oversee factory and site-based activities including FAT, SAT, commissioning, buy-off, and final system handover. A strong focus on risk management, safety, and compliance is essential, ensuring all site activities meet HSE regulations, customer standards, and internal procedures. Skills & Experience Applicants should have proven experience managing automation, automotive, or industrial line-build and tooling programmes, with a solid mechanical engineering background and practical exposure to robotics, tooling, and automated assembly systems. Experience delivering automation projects involving processes such as resistance spot welding, MIG welding, robotic handling, automated fastening, clinching, SPR, or adhesive application is highly desirable. You should be confident leading multi-disciplinary teams, managing subcontractors, and working across multiple concurrent projects. Strong commercial awareness is essential, including budgeting, forecasting, cost control, and contract management. You will be an effective communicator, comfortable operating at customer and senior management level, and able to perform well in fast-paced, high-pressure environments. An engineering qualification and/or time-served apprenticeship is required. Experience working to automotive OEM standards and an understanding of system integration and commissioning activities would be advantageous. Personal Attributes This role suits a highly organised, proactive leader with a calm, decisive approach to problem-solving.

They have live projects with a variety of the top house-builders in the UK and have a full pipeline secured for 2026. Having met the directors of the business, I can confidently say this groundwork contractor is looking to stand out from their competition, harnessing innovation, a fresh brand image, and a focus on being the best at what they do. I have heard this not only from people who work at this company, but also from people who work for several of the main competitors! About the Role: We have been asked to find a Senior Contracts Manager who has a proven background working for residential groundwork subcontractors. Usual packages include foundations and externals for residential plots across the Home Counties, so suitable candidates must come from this world. The role will report directly to the Operations Director of this division, and you’ll be responsible for overseeing several live sites while helping plan at the preconstruction phases for new sites. Your role will be to help support the on-site management, with maintaining programme requirements, while also controlling costs. Quality, safety, and professionalism are at the forefront of what this business stands for, so again, these remits will also fall under your control for your selected projects. This will be a client-facing position, and the successful individual will need to uphold (or even help improve) the standards of the business (which are already very good).

Have you worked for groundwork subcontractors for the majority of your career? Can you show a stable career history? Have you progressed through the ranks into a Contracts Management position? And are you based in or around the Northern Home Counties, so this location works for you daily? If the answer is yes to each of these questions, then I’d like to talk with you.

I would also like to add, further career progression is available for those who stand out. If you have aspirations of progressing into a Construction Director role, this company can provide the platform for you to earn that chance. How to Apply: I am more than happy to discuss this opportunity with people over the phone or face-to-face in a fully confidential manner. This is an incestuous sector, and I fully understand the importance of keeping things discrete. Alternatively, it would be ideal to see a copy of your CV to understand your previous experience and employment. In line with GDPR, nothing will be done with your CV/details until we have discussed the role in detail anyway (including who the employer is), but having gained an understanding of your formal past, this may help when we come to talk and discuss the option. Either way, my contact details are listed below: Email (remove all spaces): Andrew @ cityscape ltd . com Tel: (phone number removed) About Me, Your Consultant: My name is Andrew Jackson, and I am one of the founding directors of Cityscape Recruitment Ltd. I have over 20 years of experience in civil engineering & construction recruitment, during which time, I have specialised in the niche sectors of concrete frames, groundworks, basement construction, and demolition.
