  • Experience on high‑speed rail or large‑scale mainline rail projects is strongly preferred
  • Background working for main contractors, EPC contractors, or delivery partners
  • Proven ability to operate in complex, multi‑contractor project environments
  • Comfortable working site‑based in challenging delivery programmes

Qualifications

  • Degree in Civil Engineering, Railway Engineering, or a related discipline
  • 10+ years in rail infrastructure delivery
  • International project experience, ideally within the Middle East or Africa, is advantageous

Profile Sought

The ideal candidate is a hands‑on rail delivery professional with strong technical credibility in track and OCS, combined with practical experience managing civil works interfaces on site.
