Let’s get Britain moving

Commercial & Procurement Opportunities

As the largest infrastructure project in Europe, HS2 is a unique opportunity. With the expert input of our procurement, commercial and contract professionals, this high-speed railway will change the future of the country.

An estimated 400,000 supply chain contract opportunities for UK businesses will be created during Phase One of HS2, supporting thousands of jobs on site and many more around the country. It is estimated that around 95% of those contract opportunities will be won by UK based businesses and around two thirds of those will be small and medium sized businesses.

Our close-knit teams of passionate professionals are working on once-in-a-generation projects and setting new benchmarks for sustainable, high value commercial practice.

These teams will help change the future of the country, leaving a legacy of economic and commercial prosperity – join us, and together our ideas will go further.

We’re looking for experienced, enterprising people to lead commercial activities and manage consultant and contractor relationships on Phase Two route development. This will involve making sure your team of Commercial and Contract Managers are delivering value for money and that fair and effective commercial management processes are implemented and maintained during the entire project.

The size and scale of HS2 offers a broad range of career opportunities. Applicants who may not have traditionally considered a career in the construction and rail engineering sectors are encouraged to sign up to HS2’s Talent Pools for a skills match assessment. Where there is a skills match, which takes account of essential and transferrable skills, applicants will be invited to apply for roles.

HS2 IMAGE [square]

HS2 is Britain’s new zero carbon, high-speed railway, and the country’s flagship transport levelling up project. It is the biggest rail investment ever made in the North of England and is Europe’s largest infrastructure project. Major civil engineering works are now underway with £23 billion contracted into the supply chain and around 350 active sites between the West Midlands and London, supporting over 28,500 jobs, delivering benefits before a single train has started running.

The new high-speed line will run between the North West and the South East, stopping at Manchester, Birmingham and London with trains continuing on the existing network to Scotland and elsewhere. In total, over 250 miles of new high-speed line is planned across the country. The first HS2 services will run between Birmingham Curzon Street and Old Oak Common in London between 2029 and 2033, and expand as new sections of the network are built.
