We are seeking an experienced Senior Bridge Engineer to lead the delivery of complex bridge and structural engineering projects from concept through to construction. This role offers the opportunity to work on a varied portfolio of highway, rail, pedestrian and civil infrastructure schemes, contributing technical expertise at every stage of project development. You will take responsibility for producing robust, economical and buildable design solutions while ensuring compliance with relevant standards, specifications and health and safety requirements.
Your duties will include managing and reviewing bridge inspections, assessments, feasibility studies and detailed designs; preparing calculations, technical reports, drawings and specifications; and providing engineering input to multidisciplinary project teams. You will oversee design quality, programme and technical risk, support cost and resource planning, and coordinate with clients, contractors, authorities and other consultants. The role will also involve mentoring less experienced engineers, undertaking design checks and approvals, contributing to bids and proposals, and providing technical support during construction, including responding to site queries and resolving design issues.
Applicants should hold a degree in civil or structural engineering and have substantial experience in bridge design, assessment and asset management. Chartered status, or a clear commitment to achieving chartership, is desirable. You will need strong knowledge of relevant bridge design codes, Eurocodes, inspection principles, temporary works interfaces and construction methods, together with experience using industry-standard structural analysis and design software. Excellent communication, organisation and problem-solving skills are essential, as is the ability to manage competing priorities and lead technical workstreams. A collaborative approach, commercial awareness and a commitment to quality, sustainability and continuous improvement will be highly valued.
