I'm working with a leading engineering consultancy with a strong track record delivering complex, large-scale civil and structural projects across the UK and internationally.

You'll be involved in shaping transformational projects that range from cutting-edge energy facilities to critical national infrastructure.
The role offers the scope to own project delivery, set technical standards, and play a major part in developing the team's expertise. If you're a chartered engineer with experience leading the design and delivery of heavy civils projects - reinforced concrete structures, large-scale steelwork, complex foundations - this could be a defining next step in your career.
What you'll be doing:
Leading multidisciplinary design teams through all project phases, from concept to construction
Defining scopes of work, preparing bids and proposals, and contributing to business development
Managing budgets, resources, and programmes to ensure delivery to agreed milestones
Setting quality assurance standards and ensuring compliance with relevant design codes
Working closely with other UK and international offices to deliver integrated engineering solutions
Growing and developing the team's heavy civils expertise, mentoring and supporting colleagues
What they're looking for:
Chartered Civil or Structural Engineer (CEng MICE / MIStructE or equivalent)
Proven experience in heavy civil engineering design and delivery
Strong technical knowledge of reinforced concrete and steel structures, ideally with experience in both British Standards and potentially international codes (e.g., ACI
Comfortable managing multidisciplinary project delivery and leading client-facing engagements
A track record of working on major infrastructure projects, ideally in sectors such as Defence, Energy, or Water
Strong leadership skills with the ability to mentor and develop teams
What's on offer:
Salary in the region of £70,000 - £85,000+ depending on experience and seniority
Hybrid working with flexibility around office days
Opportunity to work on nationally significant and technically challenging projects
Genuine scope to influence the direction and growth of the heavy civils capability
Strong benefits package including enhanced pension, bonus scheme, and professional subscriptions
If you're a senior-level civil/structural engineer looking to step into a role with real influence and the opportunity to work on the UK's most important infrastructure projects, I'd love to hear from you.
