Senior Civil Engineer

We are seeking an experienced Senior Civil Engineer to lead the technical delivery of a varied portfolio of infrastructure and development projects. This is an excellent opportunity for a technically capable professional who can combine sound engineering judgement with strong project management, communication and leadership skills.

You will be responsible for developing practical, compliant and cost-effective civil engineering solutions from concept through to construction. Working closely with clients, design teams, contractors and statutory authorities, you will help ensure projects are delivered safely, efficiently and to a consistently high standard.

• Lead the design and delivery of civil engineering schemes, including highways, drainage, earthworks and infrastructure projects.
• Prepare and review calculations, specifications, drawings, reports and technical submissions.
• Manage project programmes, budgets, resources and technical risks.
• Coordinate multidisciplinary design teams and provide guidance to less experienced engineers.
• Attend meetings, undertake site visits and provide technical support during construction.
• Review contractor proposals, respond to technical queries and monitor progress against design requirements.
• Build effective working relationships with clients, consultants, contractors and relevant authorities.
• Promote high standards of health and safety, quality assurance and environmental responsibility.

You will hold a degree or equivalent qualification in civil engineering and have substantial experience in a design or project delivery environment. Chartered or working towards Chartered status is desirable. You should have a strong understanding of relevant British Standards, design codes, construction processes and applicable legislation.

Experience with industry-standard design and modelling software, together with the ability to interpret technical information accurately, is expected. You will be commercially aware, well organised and confident in presenting ideas to both technical and non-technical audiences. A proactive approach, attention to detail and the ability to manage competing priorities are essential.

You will join a supportive, collaborative environment offering varied project experience, professional development and opportunities to influence the successful delivery of high-profile schemes. A competitive salary and benefits package will be provided, reflecting your experience and expertise.
