You will act as a key technical authority, ensuring that engineering intent, programme, cost, quality, and risk are fully aligned to client expectations.

In this role you will provide strategic oversight, mentor junior engineers, and play a pivotal part in stakeholder management, decision-making, and successful project delivery. We empower our people to take ownership, lead with confidence, and build trusted, long-term relationships with both clients and delivery partners.

• Influence and guide design decisions to balance engineering integrity, cost efficiency, sustainability objectives, and programme delivery

• Oversee and hold the General Contractor accountable for engineering scope planning, sequencing, and site execution

• Review and validate technical submittals, change controls, RFIs, and value engineering proposals

• Conduct regular site inspections and leadership walks with DCD, DCE, A/E teams, GC/Trades, and QA/QC, ensuring compliance with design intent, quality standards, and safety expectations

• Escalate critical issues where necessary and provide strategic recommendations to senior stakeholders

• Support commercial and risk management activities, including cost reviews, variation assessments, and programme impact analysis

• Mentor and support Project Engineers and junior team members, fostering professional development and technical capability within the team

We would love to hear from you if you:
