Do you want to be a part of growing infrastructure team? Can you collaborate on projects? Are you a Chartered Engineer or Chartered Geologist with extensive tunnelling experience? Then, enhance your career by turning challenges into sustainable solutions.

Create Solutions that will enable a better tomorrow  

To further strengthen our Ground Engineering team, we are looking for a Principal Tunnel Engineer to join us. You’ll be working on a range of both new and existing tunnelling and ground engineering projects in the UK and internationally.

 Your key responsibilities will be:

  • Production of tunnel and ground engineering designs, assessment and checking work including preparation and checking of calculations, written reports, drawings, specifications and other contract deliverables
  • Supervising, mentoring and developing less experienced engineers, geologists and technicians within your project teams, working with line managers to maximise training opportunities
  • Assisting with the preparation of bids and tenders and supporting the pursuit of business development opportunities as required
  • Overseeing the delivery of your projects to time and budget, ensuring a high standard of sustainability, technical quality and compliance with our internal management systems

Your skills. Our team. Together we design the future.  

The first step to success in this role is that you are eager to collaborate with the people around you, whether they are colleagues, partners, or customers. Developing ties with others is something you do by acting respectfully and delivering on your promises. And you never get set in your ways but keep exploring new insights and ways to improve. 

 On top of that, you’ll have:

  • Achieved Chartered status either as an engineer or engineering geologist (CEng, CGeol, or equivalent)
  • Significant experience in a design environment working on tunnelling projects (including rock tunnelling projects) in the UK or internationally
  • Experience working in project teams and overseeing the delivery of projects, either as client's or contractor's designer
  • The ability to support, mentor and develop less experienced engineers and geologists
  • Good inter-personal skills and aptitude to work collaboratively in a diverse multi-disciplinary team
  • A deep understanding and passion for tunnelling, especially rock tunnelling

A place to work and so much more  

At COWI, we work together with our customers to shape a sustainable and liveable world. We do it by applying our knowledge and curiosity – and sometimes even our courage – to create the solutions the world needs today to enable a better tomorrow. That is why we say no to fossil-based projects and aspire to have 100% of our revenue come from activities that move our customers towards sustainability.

We value differences and development and cultivate an environment of belonging and having fun. Because that is what brings out the best in you, at work and at home.

With offices primarily located in the Nordic region, the UK, North America and India, we are currently more than 8,000 people who bring their expertise in engineering, architecture, energy and environment into play.

What we also offer:  
To us, a fair reward is more than a competitive salary. We want to take care of our people professionally and personally as well. 

Some of our benefits include:

  • 28 days' holiday plus all UK bank and public holidays 
  • Formalised development plans and yearly promotion opportunities 
  • Private health care, for you and your immediate dependents 
  • Flexible and hybrid working conditions 
  • Annual subscription fees paid for your membership of two Professional Institutions 
  • Group personal pension scheme – salary exchange 
  • Life assurance 

As part of our commitment to equality, diversity, and inclusion, we partner with the wisecampaign.org.uk to recruit for a better gender balance in our teams.
