Construction Manager – HVDC Underground Cable Civil Works (Major Infrastructure Programme, Germany)

We are supporting a large, multi-year national energy infrastructure programme and are seeking an experienced Construction Manager (Civils / Tiefbau) to oversee the delivery of underground civil works for a new high-voltage transmission corridor in Germany. The role involves managing long-distance construction sections (up to ~100 km) for an HVDC cable system, requiring strong expertise in heavy civil engineering rather than telecommunications or fibre-optic deployment.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead all on-site civil construction activities for 110–380 kV underground cable routes, including trenching, micro-tunnelling, HDD works, shaft construction, soil replacement, and cable corridor preparation across large linear distances.

• Coordinate and supervise civil contractors, specialist tunnelling teams, and heavy plant operations, ensuring that execution follows engineering specifications, environmental requirements, and project timelines.

• Ensure regulatory compliance with German construction standards (HOAI, VOB/B, VDE), environmental legislation, occupational safety rules, and technical guidelines associated with high-voltage transmission infrastructure.

• Oversee logistics and route access including temporary site roads, traffic management, land access, reinstatement, and coordination with municipalities and landowners.

• Drive progress tracking, quality assurance, documentation, and reporting for all civil works, ensuring construction milestones are achieved across multiple geographically distributed sites.

• Manage risk identification and mitigation, particularly related to deep excavations, groundwater control, geotechnical challenges, long-distance corridors, and micro-tunnelling interfaces.

• Collaborate closely with engineering, permitting, environmental, and cable installation teams, ensuring that civil works are fully coordinated with mechanical and electrical disciplines.

• Represent the project on-site during inspections, audits, and coordination meetings with contractors and technical partners.

Account Manager / Calculations Specialist 

• Manage client relationships, serve as the primary point of contact, and ensure high customer satisfaction through proactive communication.

• Prepare detailed cost calculations, quotations, and proposals based on technical requirements and project specifications.

• Analyze project data, pricing structures, and resource needs to produce accurate and competitive commercial offers.

• Coordinate internally with sales, engineering, and project teams to clarify requirements and support successful project delivery.

• Monitor contract performance, track changes, and update financial documentation to maintain transparency and profitability
