An exciting opportunity is available for an experienced Engineering Manager to support major rail bids and project pursuits. This role will provide technical leadership across the bid lifecycle, ensuring proposed solutions are safe, compliant, deliverable and aligned with client requirements. You will work closely with bid, commercial, project delivery and operational teams to develop robust technical submissions that demonstrate value, innovation and a clear understanding of the rail environment.

Key responsibilities will include leading the engineering contribution to tenders, coordinating multidisciplinary technical teams and managing the production of design philosophies, compliance matrices, methodologies, technical schedules and supporting documentation. You will review client specifications, identify technical risks and opportunities, contribute to programme and cost development, and ensure assumptions, interfaces and dependencies are clearly defined. The role will also involve engaging with clients, partners, suppliers and specialist consultants, facilitating design reviews and assuring that all proposed engineering solutions meet relevant standards, legislation and assurance requirements. You will be expected to promote a strong safety culture and provide clear, credible technical input during presentations, interviews and clarification stages.

Applicants should have substantial experience in rail engineering, systems integration, infrastructure or a closely related discipline, together with a proven track record of managing multidisciplinary engineering activities in a bid, pre-construction or project environment. A relevant engineering qualification is required, and professional registration or progress towards professional registration would be advantageous. You will need strong knowledge of rail standards, assurance processes, risk management and configuration control, as well as excellent written, analytical and stakeholder-management skills. The successful candidate will be organised, commercially aware and confident working to demanding deadlines, with the ability to influence technical decisions and translate complex engineering information into compelling, client-focused proposals.
