We are seeking an experienced Senior Bridge Lead to provide technical leadership across the delivery of bridge and structures projects from feasibility through to detailed design, construction support and completion. The successful candidate will lead multidisciplinary teams, establish design strategies, coordinate interfaces with highways, rail, geotechnical and environmental specialists, and ensure that all work is delivered safely, efficiently and to the required technical standards. You will act as a senior point of contact for clients, contractors and stakeholders, providing clear advice and supporting the development of effective, practical and sustainable solutions.
Your responsibilities will include reviewing and approving technical outputs, managing design risk, preparing and checking calculations, specifications and drawings, and ensuring compliance with relevant codes, standards and statutory requirements. You will contribute to fee proposals, scopes of work, programmes and resource planning, while monitoring progress, quality, budgets and delivery performance. The role will also involve mentoring engineers and technicians, undertaking design reviews, supporting site activities where required, and promoting consistent technical excellence and knowledge sharing across the wider team.
Applicants should hold a degree or equivalent qualification in civil or structural engineering and possess substantial experience in bridge design, assessment, inspection or construction. Professional registration, or a clear commitment to achieving it, is expected. You will have strong knowledge of bridge engineering principles, relevant design standards, asset management and project delivery processes, together with experience using industry design and analysis software. Excellent communication, leadership and problem-solving skills are essential, as is the ability to manage competing priorities and build effective relationships. A proactive, collaborative approach and a commitment to health, safety, quality and continuous improvement will be highly valued.
