**About the Opportunity**
Do you have a talent for solving problems and juggling multiple tasks, are you someone who likes to get stuck in and deliver results? Do you have the grit and purpose to see things through? If so, our team in our Specialist Consultancy and Laboratory Solutions business has a great role for you!
We’re looking for someone who can communicate confidently and build great relationships with a diverse range of stakeholders. You’ll need to work collaboratively to drive projects forward while ensuring everything is up to standard and compliant with all necessary procedures, policies and project governance requirements.

Our multidisciplinary team of scientists, engineers and consultants provide client-focused solutions to all stages of the nuclear lifecycle. From desk-based consultancy to on-site work, we provide innovative solutions to solve our clients’ most complex challenges.
This role is based at our Warrington campus and due to the lab-based nature of the projects, project managers need to be based in the Warrington campus for at least 50% of their time.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a project manager with some experience who is looking for a role with plenty of variety, or a junior project manager ready to step up. You will bring enthusiasm and drive, and be adept at juggling multiple tasks to support the delivery of a portfolio of varied consultancy tasks and projects to time, cost and quality.

+ Ensure compliance with applicable safety, environmental and quality standards, client procedures and policies and other relevant legislative and regulatory requirements.
+ Ensure compliance with all project governance requirements and processes and that project risks and opportunities are identified, mitigated and managed.
+ Provide accurate and timely information, data and reports regarding the project status, activities and performance. Support in the development of budgets and schedules for projects and controlling forecasts and actual costs against them.
+ Provide leadership in all aspects of health and safety performance.
+ Undertake other activities as directed, including contributing to the development of bids and proposals.
+ Act as role model for Amentum values and behaviours.
**Here’s What You’ll Need**
+ Experience in successfully leading teams to deliver projects to time, cost and quality, leading by example in the safe and secure delivery of projects.
+ Demonstrate resilience in behaviours and actions, including the flexibility to adapt and adjust in response to change, perseverance and a growth mindset.
+ Enthusiasm, drive and a proactive and adaptable approach suited to the diverse nature of the business, with the ability to prioritise effectively.
+ Clear and confident communicator, with strong client-facing skills.
+ Developing commercial and financial acumen, understanding cost and estimating principles and key performance metrics, taking action to deliver to budget.
+ A good understanding of project planning and controls, including scope management, cost control, schedule adherence, risk management and change management.
+ APM PMQ qualification or equivalent and membership of a relevant professional body would be beneficial.
+ Experience of the nuclear industry or working in another highly regulated industry would be beneficial.
