Project Manager

Due to being awarded the Major Programme Partner (MPP) and the Asset Renewal Partner, Costain have an exciting opportunity for a Project Manager in order to support the successful delivery of the baggage handling facility within Terminal 2 under the Heathrow H7 framework, working within a constrained, highly sequenced programme.

Costain is the Major Programme Partner (MPP) and the Asset Renewal Partner (ARP) for Terminals 1 and 2, two of six major programmes of work that Heathrow has committed to deliver within the H7 quinquennium.

Within the MPP framework, Costain is the Principal Contractor and Principal Designer for the T2 Baggage Programme (T2BP), which is a £700m+ complex baggage and infrastructure programme.

This consists of principally two elements: extending the life of, protecting and providing alternative facilities for the existing Terminal 2 baggage operation currently run from Terminal 1; and designing, constructing, testing and bringing into use a new Terminal 2A baggage system.

The role is to manage a team of engineers and sub-contractors to delivery a large area of the T2 Baggage Upgrade programme in delivery. You will be planning, coordinate, and oversee the delivery of multiple packages including civils, M&E and fit out within a live airport environment, ensuring works are completed safely, to programme, and in accordance with technical and quality standards.
