  • Join our two-year Graduate Programme and begin your career with our Project Controls team. You’ll work alongside experienced consultants supporting major programmes across energy, infrastructure and defence.
  • Project Controls brings together information on time, cost, risk, change and performance to help project teams understand where they are, anticipate challenges and make informed decisions. It acts as a project’s early-warning system by comparing actual progress against agreed plans and baselines.

You’ll be supported as you build your technical capability, learn how projects operate and develop the confidence to work with clients and multidisciplinary teams.
