Project Control & Planning Manager (047jc) – St Athan - £Excellent Package
If you’ve planned complex operations, coordinated multi-site activity, managed customer-facing delivery, or controlled high-value engineering projects you could be ideal for this.
DUE TO THE NATURE OF THIS RECRUITMENT CONSULTANCY, WE ARE ONLY ABLE TO REPRESENT INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE EX MILITARY.
We’re recruiting a Project Control & Planning Manager to join Global Planning & Control (GPC) the central operational hub responsible for aircraft disassembly and maintenance planning across multiple global sites.
This is a senior operational role sitting at the centre of delivery, commercial performance, customer engagement, and cross-functional coordination.
If you’ve operated in structured, high-accountability environments and understand planning discipline, operational control, and stakeholder management then this could be for you
The Role
You will form part of the Global Planning & Control (GPC) organisation delivering operational plans to disassembly and maintenance teams across the business.
You will:
- Plan and control aircraft disassembly and maintenance activity
- Track performance against milestones and KPIs
- Act as the primary operational interface with customers
- Coordinate across commercial, finance, logistics, technical and site teams
- Drive continuous improvement and post-project learning
This is not a passive planning role, but an operational command and control role with commercial accountability.
What You’ll Be Responsible For
Operational Planning & Control
- Managing customer projects from contract handover to completion
- Planning disassembly and maintenance activity across sites
- Tracking milestones, KPIs, and budget performance
- Ensuring tooling, equipment, and resources are aligned to workload
- Capturing all chargeable activity for finance and commercial teams
- Supporting engine disassembly, collaborations, remote disassembly and special projects
Customer Interface
- Acting as the main operational point of contact
- Managing live project communications
- Facilitating customer decision gates (e.g. key project milestones)
- Handling change requests, quotations and technical queries
- Managing quality issues and final reconciliation of harvest
Governance & Continuous Improvement
- Launching and controlling project lifecycle documentation
- Chairing structured cadence meetings
- Conducting post-project reviews and customer surveys
- Capturing lessons learned and feeding CI initiatives
- Supporting 3-month rolling site plans
- Ensuring traceability and accurate project records
Ideal Military Background
This role would strongly suit:
- Senior Officers or SNCOs with operational planning responsibility
- REME / RAF / RN aviation project managers
- Logistics Officers with lifecycle project accountability
- Engineering Officers with cross-functional coordination experience
- Operations Managers from complex, regulated environments
- Personnel with experience in equipment disposal, asset recovery or structured project delivery
If you’ve planned multi-phase operations, controlled resources, delivered against milestones, and engaged directly with senior stakeholders your experience is highly transferable.
What You’ll Need
- Strong project planning and execution capability
- Budget and cost control awareness
- Ability to analyse and communicate performance data
- Excellent stakeholder communication skills
- Leadership presence with a hands-on approach
- Ability to operate at pace across multiple priorities
- Professional, structured, “can-do” mindset
Travel may be required to meet business needs.
In return they are offing a outstanding starting salary with 25 days holiday, company pension, 3% employer and 5% employee, possible bonus scheme, depending on personal and company goals, as well as continuing personnel development within the company.
