You will be enhancing the delivery of the most complex and interesting projects in the world by leading and supporting deployment of specialized project controls systems that help streamline operations and make life easier for the project teams. You’ll be involved in every phase from gathering requirements and identifying business challenges to recommending the best systems, configuring them with industry-leading practices, and driving training and adoption to make a real impact.
We work with various systems, but for this role, we are specifically looking for expertise in deploying Oracle Primavera Cloud (OPC) and/or Primavera Unifier. Experience with planning in Primavera P6 is a must, and good command of platforms like Oracle Aconex, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) and Oracle Fusion ERP would be a valuable asset. You’ll lead on the technology aspect, but with a strong focus on people and process, so your communication skills need to be excellent.
You’ll join a rapidly growing team responsible for sales and implementation of the project controls systems. There will be opportunities to manage people, lead projects, drive system sales, develop internal processes, and take on key business development activities.
Adaptability is key. Given our rapid growth, your focus might shift from Oracle systems implementation to planning and project controls when there’s a need. If you're open to that kind of flexibility, this role is for you!
Team
More specifically you will join the Integrated Project Controls Systems (IPCS) team who are industry leaders in improving delivery of complex projects through deployment of the most suitable software on the market.
Your top three objectives
1. To make construction projects deliver to near perfection
2. To create scalable and repeatable solutions to common problems
3. To develop yourself and everyone around you
1. Own the implementation plan: Own the system implementation plan and drive software configuration and adoption to achieve desired outcomes. We believe in your ability to assess the situation and commit to what is achievable.
2. Develop impactful solutions: Leverage your planning and project controls expertise to design and configure scalable, optimized and fit-for-purpose solutions on Oracle systems.
3. Manage people and process: While great technical solutions are important, successfully deploying them to a large user base requires more than just a good config. Engaging all relevant stakeholders is key, ensuring they understand that the new processes and tools are designed to make their lives easier.
4. Report and inform: Provide simple actionable reports to stakeholders at all levels that help them deliver their part of the project more efficiently and effectively
5. Develop everyone: Maximise the development of your team personally and professionally and educate our clients to improve as well. (even if you are junior you can help your leader develop too!)
Your Capabilities
We are looking for a dynamic individual who can leverage their planning and project controls expertise to configure and deploy flagship Oracle systems. While we’ve already got an army of Primavera P6 experts, this role focuses on OPC and Unifier. Don’t worry if you are not an expert in all listed tools, but the more you know, the better! At Laminar, we’re all from the construction world, and we would like you to bring that experience too. Understanding the daily challenges faced by folks delivering projects helps us configure systems that truly make their lives easier - and that’s the goal! You’ll need to enjoy learning and be willing to dive into training and user manuals to find answers. While this is a technical role, it’s equally important that you’re a strong communicator who can keep people engaged and aligned with a shared vision. Sound like you? Keep reading!
What matters most to us is your attitude, drive, and people skills. We’re looking for someone who has a knack for configuring Oracle systems and some experience in planning and project controls in the construction industry. You don’t need to be an expert, we’ll provide training and development to help you grow. What’s most important is that you enjoy the work and are eager to learn and develop along the way.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kinds of projects would I be working on?
It’s common for people to be exposed to several projects in their first year with us. You’ll work on some of the most complex and interesting environments in the world. We’ve delivered over 100 data centres internationally, many of them fast-tracked and multi-package. Our teams have supported flagship infrastructure programmes like HS2 through integrated planning and digital delivery, contributed to over $30bn in power generation and transmission projects, and played a key role in the development of high-containment labs and R&D campuses for some of the world’s most advanced industrial and life sciences clients. You might find yourself working in sectors such as data centres, infrastructure (including defense, rail, and highways), high tech (such as advanced manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and semiconductors), or complex building projects. These aren’t hands-off assignments. They’re dynamic, hands-on environments designed for people who want to be challenged. We bring back the lessons from every project to help our team grow and deliver the highest levels of value. (Check out our case stories.)
Who are our clients?
Major owners/operators and main contractors with project values between £1m and £1bn+ globally.
Where would I be working?
One week you might be working from home. The next, you might travel to the site to meet the construction teams and help organise them. Maybe you’ll pop into our London office for a workshop or a beer. Maybe you’ll fly out to exotic (and sometimes not!) locations in Europe or the Middle East to visit clients. It really depends on what you want to get involved in and what fits with your life.
How does what I do connect with the long-term impact on the construction industry?
You’re tasked with understanding and solving common problems. We don’t want to reinvent the wheel every time, so you’ll be responsible for documenting new solutions and evolving ones we’ve developed. This goes into our knowledge repository, which we’re going to open source to the industry.
The knowledge you capture will be used by us to build new products. You’ll constantly test those products in the field, so we can rapidly iterate and improve them for anyone in the industry to use.
