THE PROGRAMME
Join a flagship multi-year capital programme transforming Dublin Airport into a world-class international hub, expanding capacity to 40 million passengers per year with a future pathway to 55 million.
THE OPPORTUNITY
This role is ideal for a Project Manager with a strong civil engineering or infrastructure background who wants to deliver high-profile packages in a live airport setting. You will coordinate multidisciplinary design and construction activity and provide clear control over programme, cost, risk, interfaces and change.
The programme covers new piers and aircraft stands, major airfield upgrades, terminal redesign, surface access and transport improvements, and upgraded drainage and utilities. You will work in a live, safety-critical environment where robust governance, stakeholder management and disciplined delivery are essential.
WHAT YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR
- Manage civil infrastructure projects and work packages across the full project lifecycle.
- Coordinate design, procurement, construction, testing, commissioning and handover activities.
- Develop and maintain Project Execution Plans, delivery schedules, risk registers and change logs.
- Manage technical consultants, contractors and external service providers against agreed scope and performance requirements.
- Chair project and design-review meetings and ensure approvals, actions and decisions are controlled.
- Monitor costs, variations, programme status, quality, safety and contractor performance.
- Prepare concise monthly reports covering progress, milestones, risks, issues and construction activity.
- Manage project interfaces and stakeholder communications in a complex operational environment.
- Support NEC contract administration, early warnings and compensation-event processes where required.
WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR
- At least 7 years of experience in construction, civil engineering or infrastructure project delivery.
- Demonstrable site-based delivery experience on civil, airfield, roads, drainage, utilities or comparable infrastructure projects.
- A track record of delivering safely, on time, within budget and to the required quality standard.
- Good knowledge of project controls, risk management, change control and stakeholder engagement.
- Previous client-side or consultancy experience is preferred.
- Working knowledge of NEC contracts is required; aviation or other live operational experience is advantageous.
- A relevant engineering, construction or project management degree; professional accreditation is desirable.
WHAT IS ON OFFER
- A highly competitive permanent base salary of €85,000 - €100,000 (approximately £73,000 - £86,000) for comparison, depending on experience and professional standing.
- Primarily site based at Dublin Airport, with four days on site and one remote-working day each week.
- A permanent opportunity on one of Europe's most significant live-airport infrastructure programmes.
- Direct exposure to senior client stakeholders, major contractors and multidisciplinary delivery teams.
- A competitive benefits package and professional development support, subject to final confirmation.
