Help deliver critical infrastructure for the UK's energy future

At Laing O'Rourke, we're delivering a major National Grid substation upgrade as part of the Wimbledon Asset Replacement Project.

This is an opportunity to play a key role on a nationally important programme that will enhance the resilience of the UK's energy network. Working with talented colleagues and partners, you'll help ensure that quality, continuous improvement and collaboration are at the heart of delivery.

The Opportunity

We're looking for a Project Quality Manager who can build trusted relationships, influence positive outcomes and help teams perform at their best.

This is a highly visible role within the project leadership team, offering the chance to shape strategy, improve performance and leave a lasting legacy on a complex infrastructure programme.

What You'll Be Doing

Leading project quality, assurance and continuous improvement activities

Building strong relationships across project teams, suppliers and client stakeholders

Coaching and supporting teams to achieve right-first-time delivery

Using data and digital tools to identify trends, risks and opportunities

Supporting the successful assurance and handover of a critical infrastructure asset

Embedding a culture of learning, collaboration and continuous improvement

What We're Looking For

We're interested in people who can influence others, navigate complexity and drive high standards in regulated environments.

Construction experience is not essential.

You may have developed your expertise in quality, assurance, compliance, governance, risk, operational excellence, continuous improvement or a related discipline within sectors such as:

Energy and utilities

Manufacturing and production

Healthcare and pharmaceuticals

Aerospace and aviation

Defence

Rail, transport or logistics

Telecommunications

Financial services and regulated industries

Most importantly, you'll bring:

Experience working in a complex or highly regulated environment

Strong stakeholder engagement and relationship-building skills

The ability to influence, collaborate and build consensus

A passion for improving systems, processes and outcomes

Confidence using data and insights to support decision-making

A pragmatic, solutions-focused approach

A commitment to developing others and fostering an inclusive team culture

Why Join Laing O'Rourke?

At Laing O'Rourke, you'll join a business that values different perspectives, supports professional growth and encourages people to bring their best ideas to work.

You'll have the opportunity to:

Contribute to a nationally significant infrastructure programme

Work alongside experienced professionals from diverse disciplines

Shape project outcomes and influence future best practice

Develop your career within a leading engineering and construction organisation

Support innovative approaches to quality, digital delivery and continuous improvement

We Value Different Perspectives

Some of the strongest quality professionals come from outside construction, bringing fresh thinking, transferable skills and new approaches.

If you're excited by the opportunity but don't meet every requirement, we'd still love to hear from you.
