Project Planner

£60,000 + car allowance + full benefits.

THIS IS YOUR YEAR.

But… is your current role actually helping you become a better planner?

I speak to a lot of planners, engineers, and site managers every week.

And the same thing keeps coming up…

They’re busy.
They’re updating programmes.
They’re hitting deadlines.

But they’re not really learning planning.

Not properly.

Because real planning isn’t done from behind a screen.

It’s done on site.

Boots on.
Hard hat on.
Speaking to the people doing the work.
Challenging what doesn’t make sense.
Understanding how the job is actually being built.

And most roles don’t give you that.

They give you a colouring‑in book…
and tell you to stay inside the lines.

So I’ll put this out there.

I’m working on a Project Planner role in West London.
Main contractor.
£60,000 + car allowance + full benefits.

But more importantly — the environment is right.

This client is open to planners from other sectors.

Because good planning is transferable.

If you understand sequencing, logic, and how work is actually delivered — you can adapt.

A roof doesn’t go on before the structure.
A programme either reflects reality… or it doesn’t.

Different sector. Same principles.

You’ll be supported to transfer that knowledge properly — not left to figure it out.

You’ll be on site 5 days a week
You’ll be part of the delivery team
You’ll be supported by experienced planners

And you’ll be expected to:

• Build programmes from real construction sequencing
• Own the critical path
• Challenge progress and production
• Understand NEC — Clause 32 and Compensation Events
• Protect the programme, not just update it

This is for:

• Site Engineers stepping into planning
• Site Agents / Managers who already think in sequence
• Planners fed up with update-only roles
• Planners from other sectors who understand real sequencing

If you’ve ever looked at a programme and thought…

“That’s not how this job is actually being built”

You’ll understand this.
