Asset Protection Engineer

22 hours ago

York, United Kingdom Network Rail Full time

Brief Description

The Asset Protection team supports all external parties completing work alongside Network Rail infrastructure, facilitating smooth, efficient, and successful project delivery whilst ensuring there is no impact on the safe and reliable operation of the railway now or in the future. Our outside party customers can range from local authorities who are repairing or upgrading our roads, private companies who are investing close to our railways, or utility companies that just need to build over or under the railway to service their business needs. There are an increasing number of organisations who wish to invest directly in railway infrastructure, improving existing stations, constructing new stations and freight terminals and even re-opening old lines. Network Rails Open for Business philosophy means we offer opportunity for partners to develop and deliver schemes themselves, working alongside our asset protection team who provide engineering assurance until, in most cases, the completed scheme is transferred into Network Rail ownership.

This exciting engineering position based in York requires a diverse set of skills and experience. The purpose of this role is to provide professional engineering assurance and technical interface to evaluate external engineering proposals and review permanent and temporary works designs, working with the wider Asset Protection team to support safe and successful delivery of outside/third party projects. The team geographically covers the North & East and East Coast Routes.

The fast paced and varied work portfolio includes some flagship engineering schemes, ranging from new third party constructed stations, depot upgrades and multi-span highway bridges, to complex demolition, and challenging utilities interfaces.

We are looking for a person who has a civil engineering background with experience ideally of working as a Project Engineer (PE), Design Engineer (DE) or Contractor Responsible Engineer (CRE). However, if you are new to rail and have a civil engineering background whether through design or construction, we also want to hear from you. You will be part of an engineering team where there will be room for professional development including ICE support through our Eastern community of Supervising Engineers, and opportunity to work towards becoming a Designated Project Engineer.
