Site Engineer

Are you an experienced Site Engineer looking to get involved in major infrastructure projects, develop your technical expertise and progress your career with an established Tier 1 contractor

I'm working closely with a leading UK-wide infrastructure contractor that's expanding its engineering team across the Thames Valley, following a significant programme of secured work within the water sector.

With major investment underway through AMP8, this is a fantastic opportunity to become part of a busy, well-established delivery team working on essential water and wastewater infrastructure projects.

You'll be involved in a varied portfolio of schemes, from capital maintenance and civil engineering works through to complex, multidisciplinary treatment works upgrades.

This isn't just another setting-out position. You'll have genuine ownership of the technical delivery on site, working alongside experienced Project Managers, engineers and construction teams, with excellent opportunities to develop your responsibilities and progress longer-term.

• Taking ownership of day-to-day site engineering activities, including setting out, surveying, engineering control and technical delivery.
• Supporting the delivery of major water and wastewater infrastructure schemes across multiple sites.
• Working closely with Site Managers, Project Managers, subcontractors and design teams to keep projects running safely and efficiently.
• Ensuring construction works meet the required drawings, specifications, quality standards and programme deadlines.
• Managing site records, QA documentation, inspections, as-built drawings and technical reporting.
• Supporting project planning, resolving technical challenges and contributing to efficient construction methodologies.
• Helping develop Graduate and Trainee Engineers as you progress within the team.

We're keen to speak with Site Engineers who have a solid grounding in civil engineering and are looking to take the next step with a contractor offering long-term project security and career development.

• Previous Site Engineering experience within civils, infrastructure, utilities or water projects.
• Strong setting-out, surveying and general site engineering knowledge.
• Experience working for a main contractor or principal contractor.
• A Degree, HNC/HND or equivalent qualification in Civil Engineering or a related discipline.
• A good understanding of construction drawings, quality assurance and health & safety procedures.
• A valid CSCS card and full UK driving licence.

Water sector experience would be beneficial, but isn't essential. Engineers from wider civil engineering and infrastructure backgrounds are encouraged to apply.

Additional qualifications such as SMSTS/SSSTS, First Aid or Temporary Works would be advantageous.

Alongside a competitive salary and the opportunity to work on a substantial pipeline of secured infrastructure projects, the package includes:

• Very competitive salary
• 26 days annual leave
  , plus bank holidays, with the option to buy or sell additional days.
• Private medical insurance
  , with optional family cover.
• Company pension matched up to 8%.
• Life assurance and enhanced family leave policies.
• Additional annual leave for long service.
• Flexible and agile working where operationally possible.
• Employee discounts, wellbeing support and a range of optional benefits.

Beyond the package, you'll be joining a business with an established presence in UK infrastructure, a strong pipeline of work and genuine opportunities to progress into Senior Site Engineer and wider site management positions as your career develops.
