We're looking for an experienced and inspiring Project Management & Coordination Leader to join our growing Nature Services team at Associate or Associate Director level.

This is a high-impact leadership role, where you'll sit at the centre of major UK infrastructure and environmental programmes ensuring projects are delivered safely, efficiently and to the highest standards. You'll influence how we scale delivery, embed best practice and build high-performing, inclusive teams across the UK and India.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Provide senior project management leadership across complex environmental and infrastructure programmes, partnering with Project Directors, Technical Leads and clients to ensure strong governance, effective mobilisation and consistent delivery performance
  • Proactively identify risks, challenges and interdependencies, stepping in early to maintain programme certainty, quality and overall outcomes
  • Lead, develop and coach Deputy Project Managers and Project Coordinators across UK and India teams, creating a high-performing, inclusive environment with clear accountability and seamless collaboration
  • Embed scalable, best-practice delivery frameworks across planning, risk, cost control, reporting and change management, driving consistency and continuous improvement across programmes
  • Strengthen commercial performance through robust project controls, improving forecasting, managing scope and change effectively, and enhancing delivery predictability and margins
  • Contribute to the wider strategic growth of Nature Services, supporting resourcing and capability planning, major bids and mobilisation, and shaping future delivery models including digital tools and offshore integration


Essential experience

  • Proven leadership on major projects/programmes within environmental, ecology or infrastructure consultancy
  • Strong experience leading and developing project management or coordination teams
  • Track record of implementing or improving project management systems at scale
  • Experience working across multi-disciplinary, geographically dispersed teams
  • Strong stakeholder management skills with senior-level influence
  • Solid commercial awareness, including financial control and risk management


Desirable

  • Experience working with offshore / international delivery teams (e.g. India)
  • Exposure to major UK infrastructure, utilities or transport programmes
  • Professional qualification (APM, PRINCE2, PMP) or equivalent experience


Why join us?

  • Work on large-scale, meaningful environmental projects across the UK
  • Shape delivery excellence at a strategic level
  • Lead and develop diverse, global teams
  • Be part of a forward-thinking, collaborative leadership community
  • Enjoy flexibility with hybrid working and a strong focus on wellbeing


Imagine a better future for you and a better future for us all.

Work on landmark projects around the world and embrace opportunities to make an even bigger impact in the communities you care about. What if you could do the

best work of your life and create a legacy for yourself?
