  • Provide technical guidance and mentoring to junior engineers, fostering a culture of continuous learning and improvement.
  • Collaborate with clients, contractors, and other stakeholders to ensure project objectives are met.
  • Utilise Lusas software for structural analysis and design, with a solid understanding of Eurocodes.

Requirements:

  • Chartered Engineer status (CEng).
  • Around 10 years of post-chartered experience in bridge design, ideally within the rail or highways sectors.
  • Proven experience in a technical, hands-on role with a strong focus on design and engineering quality.
  • Familiarity with Lusas software and Eurocodes is highly desirable.
  • Experience as a Contractor's Responsible Engineer (CRE) or Contractor's Engineering Manager (CEM) would be advantageous.
  • Strong leadership qualities with the ability to mentor and develop junior team members.
  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to interact effectively with clients and stakeholders.

What We Offer:

  • A competitive salary.
  • The opportunity to work on a wide range of exciting and varied projects.
  • A supportive and collaborative working environment.
  • Career progression opportunities, with the potential to step into a Technical Director role within 2-3 years.
