Senior Project Engineer
We are seeking an experienced Senior Project Engineer to lead the technical delivery of complex projects from concept through to completion. This role will involve coordinating multidisciplinary engineering activities, managing project interfaces, and ensuring that all work is delivered safely, on schedule, within budget, and to the required quality standards. You will work closely with project managers, design teams, contractors, suppliers, and client representatives to develop practical solutions and maintain strong communication throughout the project lifecycle.
Key responsibilities will include reviewing technical specifications, drawings, calculations, and design submissions; managing engineering change control; monitoring progress against agreed programmes; and identifying and resolving technical risks, design issues, and construction constraints. You will support procurement and contract activities, contribute to project cost and schedule control, and ensure that engineering deliverables comply with relevant legislation, industry standards, and project requirements. The role will also involve leading technical meetings, preparing progress reports, coordinating testing and commissioning activities, and supporting the successful handover of completed works. A strong focus on health, safety, environmental performance, quality assurance, and continuous improvement is essential.
Applicants should hold a degree or equivalent qualification in an appropriate engineering discipline, together with substantial experience delivering engineering or construction projects. Professional registration or progress towards professional accreditation is desirable. You will need a proven ability to manage competing priorities, interpret technical information, and make sound decisions in a fast-paced project environment. Strong organisational, analytical, and problem-solving skills are required, along with the confidence to lead teams and influence stakeholders at all levels. Experience with project management systems, design coordination, risk management, and relevant technical software will be advantageous. This is an opportunity to contribute to high-profile projects while taking ownership of challenging engineering deliverables and supporting the development of less experienced colleagues.
