Senior Bridge Manager
We are seeking an experienced Senior Bridge Manager to lead the successful delivery of bridge and structural engineering projects from inception through to completion. This is a senior leadership role requiring strong technical knowledge, commercial awareness and the ability to manage multiple stakeholders across complex infrastructure programmes. You will provide direction to project teams, promote high standards of safety and quality, and ensure that works are delivered efficiently, on time and within budget.
Your responsibilities will include overseeing the planning, design coordination, construction and maintenance of bridge-related works; reviewing technical proposals, drawings, specifications and risk assessments; and ensuring compliance with relevant legislation, standards and contract requirements. You will manage contractors, consultants and specialist suppliers, monitor programme and cost performance, and resolve technical or operational issues promptly. The role will also involve leading site meetings, reporting progress to senior stakeholders, supporting procurement and tender activities, and maintaining accurate project documentation. You will be expected to identify opportunities for improved working practices, sustainability and value for money while ensuring that health, safety and environmental requirements remain central to delivery.
Applicants should have substantial experience managing bridge or major civil engineering projects, supported by a relevant degree or equivalent professional qualification. Strong knowledge of bridge construction, inspection, repair and asset management is required, together with experience of contract administration, budget control and risk management. Professional registration or membership of an appropriate engineering institution is desirable. You will need excellent communication, negotiation and leadership skills, with the confidence to make informed decisions and build effective relationships at all levels. A practical, organised and collaborative approach, along with a commitment to quality and continuous improvement, is essential. The role may require regular travel to project and operational sites.
