The Opportunity
Ready to step away from the total station and into true engineering management? We are delivering a major new infrastructure project across the West Midlands and need a Site Engineer to join our professional delivery team
This is a white-collar, management-track role. You won't just be setting out; you will be the technical heartbeat of the project office - interrogating designs, managing quality compliance, and driving digital delivery on high-profile infrastructure.
Key Responsibilities
Technical Leadership: Review and interrogate complex civil drawings and 3D BIM models. Catch design clashes early, raise formal RFIs, and manage progressive as-built records within the CDE. Digital Verification: Establish primary site control networks and utilize robotic/GPS surveying kits for strict volumetric and dimensional verification of earthworks, drainage, and foundations. Quality Assurance (ITPs): Author, implement, and sign off project-specific Inspection & Test Plans (ITPs) for heavy civil operations. Coordinate material testing and robustly manage Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs). Site & Safety Control: Act as Temporary Works Coordinator/Supervisor. Manage high-risk systems including Permits to Dig (utility avoidance), confined spaces, and subcontractor RAMS reviews. Commercial Awareness: Maintain meticulous daily site records. Interface with the project Quantity Surveyor to track variations, delays, and progress under NEC4 mechanisms.
The Ideal Candidate
Background: 4 years of experience with a Tier 1 or Tier 2 main contractor on heavy infrastructure (highways, rail, major earthworks, or complex reinforced concrete structures). Education: Degree or HND in Civil Engineering or a related structural discipline. On track or aspiring toward professional chartership (MICE). Tech Savvy: Proficient with modern surveying instruments (Leica/Trimble), AutoCAD/Civil 3D, and digital project management platforms. Compliance & Tickets: Valid CSCS card (PQP/Gold), SMSTS or SSSTS, and ideally a Temporary Works Coordinator (TWC) certificate. Soft Skills: An analytical mind that spots errors on paper before they reach the ground, paired with the assertive communication needed to manage subcontractors firmly.
