Overview

Project Quality Manager | ANTC Project | National Grid Great Grid Upgrade

Looking for a role where you can genuinely influence project success and help deliver the UK's future energy infrastructure? We’re recruiting a Project Quality Manager to join the ANTC Project, part of National Grid's Great Grid Upgrade Programme. This is a unique opportunity to make your mark on a major infrastructure project, supporting the delivery of both Substation and Overhead Line (OHL) works that will strengthen the UK's electricity network for generations to come.

Location

Bury St Edmunds until mid-#####, before transitioning to project compounds near Chelmsford as the project progresses.

What You'll Be Doing

• Work closely with project teams, delivery partners and suppliers to embed a culture of quality across the project lifecycle.


• Influence quality performance across nationally significant infrastructure works.


• Partner with multidisciplinary teams to drive right-first-time delivery.


• Build strong relationships across project, client and supply chain teams.


• Identify opportunities for continuous improvement and share best practice.


• Provide leadership and direction across both Substation and OHL scopes.


• Support the growth and development of the quality function, including two Quality Engineers as the team expands.

Who We're Looking For

We're interested in hearing from quality professionals who enjoy working collaboratively, influencing outcomes and helping teams deliver their best work.

Your experience may come from:

• Utilities or energy


• Infrastructure or civil engineering


• Power transmission or distribution


• Rail, highways or other major projects


• Complex construction programmes

Most importantly, you'll bring a proactive approach, strong stakeholder engagement skills and a passion for raising standards through collaboration and continuous improvement.

At Laing O'Rourke, we recognise that great people come from a variety of backgrounds and career paths. If you're excited by the opportunity but don't feel you meet every requirement, we'd still encourage you to reach out for a conversation.
