Egis is supporting the delivery of a complex, multi-billion-pound portfolio of major infrastructure through increasingly programmatic and collaborative delivery models. Strong technical assurance and high-quality insight are essential to protect programme integrity and support confident decision-making.

The Technical Analysis Lead is a senior specialist role within the PMO. You will provide independent, evidence-based technical assurance of schedules, delay events, tender submissions and material programme changes, while translating detailed analysis into clear insight at project, programme and portfolio level.

Acting independently from delivery, you will be a trusted technical authority for governance forums, commercial decision-making and senior leadership.

Responsibilities

Provide independent technical assurance of delay events from a programme and schedule perspective, testing cause, effect and critical-path impact.

Show full description

Validate the quality and completeness of contemporaneous evidence and challenge assumptions, logic, sequencing and modelling approaches.

Assess schedule structure, logic integrity, constraints, float paths and interfaces, identifying weaknesses and unrealistic assumptions.

Test schedule robustness at baseline, re-baseline and recovery stages, providing early warning of technical schedule risk.

Evaluate tender and proposal schedules, benchmarking durations, productivity assumptions and sequencing against established norms.

Identify optimism bias, under-developed logic and high-risk assumptions, presenting clear evidence-based findings to commercial and governance teams.

Support decisions on change, intervention, re-baselining and recovery strategy, clearly separating technical fact from opinion or assumption.

Translate assurance outputs and performance data into programme and portfolio insight, including trends, recurring weaknesses and systemic issues.

Share learning, comparative analysis and benchmarking across projects and contractors to support delivery excellence.

Experience

Strong background in programme controls, schedule analysis and forensic planning techniques.

Experience of delivery and management on transmission projects within a regulated environment, gained across contractor, client and/or consultancy settings.

Proven experience providing independent technical assurance on complex infrastructure programmes.

Advanced knowledge of critical-path analysis, delay analysis methodologies and schedule diagnostics.

Expert capability in planning tools and techniques, particularly Primavera P6.

Strong understanding of NEC programming, early warnings and compensation event impacts.

Ability to challenge planning assumptions, evidence and modelling logic with strong analytical capability, professional judgement and independence.

Excellent communication and collaboration skills, including translating complex analysis into clear insight for senior stakeholders.

Desirable

A numerate, engineering, project management or related qualification.

Membership of a relevant professional organisation, such as APM.

Experience of major multi-disciplinary projects involving design, consenting and construction.

Location

Variable base. Specific office, site attendance and hybrid-working expectations will be confirmed during the recruitment process.

Ideally full time but will consider Contingent Worker Contract and Part-Time options.

Package:

Competitive Salary, plus discretionary bonus
