We are seeking a Highway Engineer to contribute to the planning, design, assessment and delivery of highway and transportation infrastructure projects. You will work across a varied portfolio, supporting schemes from feasibility and concept development through to detailed design, construction and completion. The role will involve applying sound engineering judgement, relevant standards and best practice to develop safe, sustainable and cost-effective solutions for roads, junctions, drainage, traffic management and associated infrastructure.
Your responsibilities will include preparing and reviewing technical drawings, specifications, reports, calculations and cost estimates; undertaking site investigations and inspections; coordinating surveys and technical inputs; and supporting the preparation of construction information and contract documentation. You will liaise with clients, contractors, local authorities, utility providers and other stakeholders, responding to technical queries and helping to resolve design or delivery issues. You will also monitor project progress, manage assigned tasks and budgets, maintain accurate records, and contribute to risk assessments, design reviews, health and safety requirements and quality assurance processes.
Applicants should hold a degree or equivalent qualification in civil engineering, highway engineering or a related discipline, with practical experience in highway design, maintenance, construction or project delivery. Knowledge of relevant highway standards, design guidance, traffic engineering principles, drainage and infrastructure regulations is essential. Experience using industry-standard design and analysis software, computer-aided design tools and common project management systems would be advantageous. You should be able to interpret technical information, produce clear written reports and communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical audiences. A proactive, organised and collaborative approach is important, together with the ability to manage competing priorities and work independently when required. Professional registration or progress towards professional accreditation is desirable, as is experience working within multidisciplinary project teams.
