About the Company
We're a growing, family-oriented civil engineering and highways maintenance company with active contracts across Cambridge, Essex, and Suffolk. We’ve built a reputation on quality, trust, and long-term partnerships—not short-term wins.
Our machine-laying division, launched just 14 months ago, is already thriving and fully booked. As demand grows, we’re looking to strengthen the team with someone who shares our values: attention to detail, a commitment to doing things right, and genuine pride in their work.
The Work You'll Lead Projects typically include:
* Pre-surface dressing
* Patching works
* Full inlay schemes
* Mid-sized surfacing works (up to £750k) as part of kerb and crossing improvements
* You’ll be overseeing a crew of around 8 subcontractors and managing block operations of up to 60–70 people. This is not a desk job — we want someone who thrives on-site, takes ownership, and ensures works are delivered safely and to an exceptional standard.
Key Responsibilities
* Plan daily works, traffic management, and crew coordination
* Maintain surfacing quality and safety throughout projects
* Directly liaise with clients and adjust to on-site needs
* Oversee road closures and ensure correct TM implementation
* Lead and manage subcontract teams and ensure compliance with safety and programme requirements
Essential Requirements
* You're someone with a background in highways surfacing, ideally from a Tier 1 or 2 contractor
* If you’ve made your way through the ranks and learned from past experiences, we’re open to strong candidates with growth potential — if you've had solid time with reputable firms
* Triple SSSTS - essential
* Street Works Supervisor - essential
* CSCS Card (any colour) - essential
* Network Rail Sentinel (nice to have)
Package & Benefits
* Salary: £46,000 – £51,000 DOE
* Hours: 7am–5pm Monday - Friday
* Van: Company vehicle provided
* Overtime: Optional and well-compensated
* Saturday: Time + ¼
* Sunday: Time + ½
* Holidays: 28 days
* Paid for all working hours
