Description and requirements

Skanska, one of the world's leading project development and construction groups, is delivering a £679 million improvement project on the A428 in Cambridgeshire to bring a new 10-mile dual carriageway between the Black Cat and Caxton Gibbet roundabouts. Working closely with design partner Mott MacDonald, this project builds on Skanska's long-standing and trusted relationship with National Highways.

This scheme will transform one of the busiest road links in the East of England, helping drivers who live, work and travel in and around the surrounding areas to save time on their journeys and help build a better society.

Drawing on our Scandinavian heritage, we are green, innovative, and progressive. We bring together people and technology, helping to make our industry safer and more collaborative.

We are now looking for an Agricultural Liaison Officer to join the team. The purpose of the role will be the interface between the project team and landowners, particularly within the agricultural community.

  • Provide direction, organisation, and leadership for agricultural related aspects on the project including land drainage, land hand back and soil management.
  • Provide expertise and support on agricultural and land management to facilitate access, way leaving and possession of land
  • Organise and attend site visit meetings with landowners, their agents, legal teams, and other stakeholders and provide meeting records for upload to a landowner and stakeholder communications database
  • Work with landowners and their agents to agree accommodation works, ensuring the resolute tracking of agreed changes
  • Report progress to stakeholders regularly ensuring reasonable satisfaction and expectations are met
  • Discuss and agree with landowners the location and installation of proposed infrastructure on land during the design process, including being able to explain the requirements and constraints applicable during such decisions.
  • Work closely with the District Valuer to agree compensation
We're looking for:
  • Minimum 2 years relevant experience in land management, agriculture, or land agency demonstrating a detailed understanding of land use, agricultural planning and operations, land ownership, and rights.
  • Understanding of the construction environment and operations with an appreciation of soil management, drainage, and reinstatement
  • Experience working with a major design consultancy and major contractor
  • Excellent communication skills
  • An ability to influence and implement best practice internally
  • High levels of resilience and adaptability
  • Strong negotiation skills to secure collaboration with the farming community
Equal opportunities We thrive through embracing differences, whether they be social backgrounds, ethnicity, disability, gender identity or expression, age, religion, sexual orientation, and any other protected characteristic - we know that diversity opens a rich potential for new ways of thinking, helping us to build successful and high-performing teams.
