We are seeking an experienced Highway Designer to contribute to the development and delivery of highways, roads and transport infrastructure projects. Working as part of a multidisciplinary design team, you will prepare safe, practical and sustainable design solutions from concept through to detailed design and construction. This role offers the opportunity to work on a varied portfolio of schemes, collaborating with engineers, planners, environmental specialists, contractors and other stakeholders to deliver high-quality outcomes.
Your responsibilities will include producing highway layouts, alignment designs, junction arrangements, drainage details, earthworks information and associated technical drawings. You will undertake design calculations, prepare specifications, schedules and reports, and ensure that all work complies with relevant standards, guidance and statutory requirements. You will also review designs, identify technical risks, contribute to design reviews and provide support during construction, responding to technical queries and assisting with the resolution of site issues. Where required, you may coordinate work completed by junior designers and technicians, checking drawings and documentation for accuracy, quality and consistency.
Applicants should have relevant experience in highway or civil infrastructure design, supported by a suitable qualification in civil engineering, transport engineering or a related discipline. Proficiency with industry-standard design and drafting software, such as AutoCAD, Civil 3D, MX or equivalent platforms, is desirable. You will need a sound understanding of highway design principles, geometric design, drainage, construction methods and applicable standards. Strong communication, organisation and problem-solving skills are essential, along with the ability to manage priorities, meet deadlines and work effectively both independently and within a team. A commitment to health and safety, technical excellence and continuous professional development is expected.
