About you

You will have demonstrable experience managing civil engineering or infrastructure projects, ideally involving bridges, structures, highways or other complex assets.

Experience working under NEC or similar forms of contract would be advantageous.

You should be an organised and commercially aware professional with excellent communication, negotiation and problem-solving skills. The ability to manage competing priorities, make sound decisions and maintain a strong focus on safety and delivery is vital. A relevant degree or professional qualification in civil engineering, construction or project management is preferred, together with appropriate membership of a recognised professional body.
