Passenger Infrastructure Engineer

1 month ago

Clevedon, North Somerset, United Kingdom North Somerset Council Full time

Are you the person we're looking for to deliver innovative transport projects in North Somerset?

North Somerset Council has an ambitious and wide-ranging programme of Bus Service Improvements, urban regeneration, and transport improvement schemes to deliver. We are looking for enthusiastic team players to join our growing team and help deliver.

About the Team

This will be a fast paced and exciting time to work for us. Following the award of significant funding for our joint West of England Bus Service Improvement Plan (BSIP), the second largest funding settlement nationally, North Somerset Council is looking to expand its project delivery teams to ensure successful delivery of our ambitious and exciting plans to transform sustainable and public transport in North Somerset alongside our colleagues across the West of England.

The projects and initiatives range from large passenger infrastructure projects (e.g. mobility hubs and public realm improvements), to first and last mile interventions around our public transport network.

We are aiming for our Bus Service Improvement Plan to significantly increase bus patronage, helping to decarbonise transport in the district.

To support these aspirations the council's BSIP delivery team is seeking to appoint 3 Engineers to progress our Passenger Infrastructure projects with a starting salary of up to £40,221 according to experience.

About the role

This role is key to delivery of new responsibilities under the BSIP and Enhanced Partnership and our new Passenger Charter.

Typical duties will vary by grade but for all officers would include input to:

  • Delivering team priorities on time and within budget
  • Managing a caseload of technical projects through all stages of scheme design and delivery including developing infrastructure designs, providing cost estimates and contract management
  • Providing technical advice / support to the wider team
  • Continuously improving team standards and working practices
  • Working with transport teams to develop briefs and specifications for schemes to maximise outcomes
  • Contract management of programme delivery
  • Reporting project progress to internal and external stakeholders
  • Environmental carbon reduction in scheme delivery and outcomes

All our roles will work in partnership with the West of England Combined Authority as part of a joint delivery unit approach.

This position is currently based at our Castlewood offices in Clevedon. Please be advised that this office will be closed by 2025. Consultation is currently underway to determine the new location for colleagues based in Castlewood; this will be at Weston-super-Mare or within North Somerset.

About you

You will be an experienced highways engineer, used to working in a fast-paced, multi-disciplinary team environment. You will be ambitious and bring the right blend of skills and experience to deliver quickly and efficiently to challenging timescales.

Depending on your level of skills and experience, you will play the most appropriate role in the successful development and implementation of highway improvement schemes, with senior officers expected to give day to day support and guidance to less experienced team members.

Why North Somerset Council?

We understand working for a local authority is more than just a job. We want to ensure our employees remain passionate about what they do and enjoys their time at North Somerset. Whether that means you want training and development opportunities or a flexible working arrangement to fit around family commitments, we will work with you to ensure you are getting the best out of your employment.
