Create Solutions that will enable a better tomorrow
To manage a small team of bridge engineers, we are looking for an Associate Engineer to join us. Working on technically challenging bridge projects, you’ll be given the opportunity to guide and support younger colleagues.
Your key responsibilities will be:
* Managing the delivery of your projects to time and budget, ensuring an industry-leading standard of technical quality and compliance with our internal management systems.
* Managing, mentoring and developing less experienced engineers and technicians within your project teams, working with line managers to maximise training opportunities.
* Developing and maintaining client relationships through your project work, including identifying and realising any potential business opportunities.
* Assisting with the preparation of bids and tenders and supporting the Directors in pursuing business development opportunities if required.
* Production of engineering design, assessment or checking work including preparation or checking of calculations, written reports and other contract deliverables.
Your skills. Our team. Together we design the future.
Like us, you believe that leadership success comes from setting a clear and meaningful direction for your team and supporting them in taking ownership of their work. You always delegate responsibility and ensure an open and safe dialogue, and you coach your people to achieve their aspirations through constructive, fact-based feedback. Attracting and nurturing a diverse group of high-potential team members is at the top of your agenda, as is creating an inclusive, caring and trusting culture in your team.
On top of that, you’ll have:
* Chartered civil or structural engineer (MICE, MIStructE or equivalent).
* Significant experience in a design environment working on bridges, heavy civil, or other complex structures in the UK or internationally.
* Significant experience in a design environment working within the UK Bridge industry.
* Significant experience leading project teams and managing the delivery of projects, either as client's or contractor's designer, ideally both.
* Be an accomplished team leader with the ability to support, mentor and develop less experienced engineers.
* Inter-personal skills and aptitude to work collaboratively in a diverse multi-disciplinary team.
* Excellent communication skills, both verbal and written.
* Technically strong engineer, able to demonstrate a deep understanding and passion for highway engineering and a personal commitment to technical excellence.
