Project Controls Reporting Analyst

Job description

Project Controls Reporting Analyst

£50,000 – £70,000

Any UK main city (Hybrid with more remote %)

Maths degree preferred

My client is hiring a Project Controls Reporting Analyst to work across some of the UK's most complex infrastructure programmes — nuclear, rail, defence, aviation.

This isn't a dashboard-builder role.

You'll own the analytical integrity behind cost intelligence that senior stakeholders, programme teams, and independent assurance bodies actually rely on.

Not just how to build a dashboard — but what the numbers mean, where the uncertainty lives, and why the model's conclusions might be wrong?

What you'll be doing:

→ Analysing large, complex cost datasets — variability, uncertainty, distributions, outliers

→ Producing cost intelligence outputs that hold up under scrutiny

→ Building benchmarks, models, and analytical frameworks across major programmes

→ Presenting complex analysis clearly to senior, non-technical audiences

→ Defending your conclusions under challenge — and doing it with confidence

→ Driving automation and tooling to improve consistency

What we're looking for:

→ Strong data analysis — you understand variability, distributions, and confidence

→ Advanced Excel and Power BI · SQL a bonus · Python desirable

→ Experience in cost, commercial, or capital project environments

→ Intellectually rigorous — you push back on weak inference, not just accept it

→ Clear communicator who can turn numbers into decisions

You can be based anywhere in the UK and ideally will have project delivery experience.

Apply now and connect to Chirag Shah, UK’s 1 Project Controls recruiter of choice.
