Technical Manager – Civil Engineering
Location: Chester-le-Street / North East
Employment Type: Permanent
Salary: Competitive salary + package
Sector: Civil Engineering / Infrastructure
Fulcrum Recruitment is working with a well-established regional civil engineering main contractor that is looking to appoint a Technical Manager to support the delivery of major infrastructure and civil engineering schemes across the North East.
This is a permanent opportunity with a respected contractor delivering substantial projects across the region, including schemes involving infrastructure, reinforced concrete structures, drainage, earthworks, utilities, public realm, new roads, park and ride schemes, power-related projects and data centre infrastructure.
The role would suit a technically strong civil engineering professional who enjoys working closely with site teams, designers, clients and external stakeholders to ensure design information is buildable, accurate and properly coordinated on site.
The Role
As Technical Manager, you will act as the key link between the external design team and the construction team.
The contractor is not responsible for producing the permanent works design, but requires someone capable of reviewing, challenging, coordinating and communicating design information to support safe, efficient and accurate delivery on site.
You will be responsible for helping site teams understand and implement the latest design information, resolving technical queries, identifying buildability issues and ensuring construction teams have the information they need to deliver works correctly.
This is a site-based role and will involve working closely with project teams across large-scale civil engineering and infrastructure schemes.
Project Types
Projects can include major civil engineering infrastructure associated with data centres, power projects, park and ride schemes, new roads, public realm, reinforced concrete structures, drainage, earthworks, service diversions, utilities and wider infrastructure works.
Key Responsibilities
* Review drawings, specifications, ground investigation data, utility information and design details to assess buildability, risk and suitability for construction.
* Liaise with external designers, temporary works designers, site teams and project stakeholders to ensure design information aligns with construction requirements.
* Manage the Technical Query process where drawings, specifications or design details require clarification.
* Work closely with document control to ensure the latest drawings, specifications and design revisions are issued, understood and implemented on site.
* Support construction methodology, sequencing, phasing, temporary works, service diversions, reinstatement works and programme development.
* Identify value engineering opportunities, including material reuse and reduced import or export requirements where appropriate.
* Support engineering teams with setting out information, QA records, as-built information and technical submissions.
* Liaise with clients, councils, utility providers, designers and other stakeholders to help remove technical, approval and interface-related bottlenecks.
Candidate Requirements
* Previous experience in a technical, engineering, design coordination or site delivery role within civil engineering or infrastructure.
* Background as a Technical Manager, Engineering Manager, Design Coordinator, Technical Coordinator, Sub Agent, Senior Engineer or similar would be suitable.
* Strong ability to review, challenge and coordinate design information from a buildability and site delivery perspective.
* Confident identifying design gaps, clashes, technical risks and information issues before they impact delivery.
* Good understanding of civil engineering construction methods, site sequencing, temporary works, utilities, drainage, earthworks and reinforced concrete works.
* AutoCAD experience is required.
* Exposure to 3D modelling software or BIM would be advantageous but is not essential.
* Strong communication skills, with the ability to work effectively with designers, site teams, clients, councils, utility providers and wider stakeholders.
The Opportunity
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys the technical side of civil engineering and wants to play a key role in ensuring design, engineering and construction teams are fully aligned.
The role offers involvement in substantial regional civil engineering and infrastructure schemes, working with a stable and reputable contractor with a strong North East presence.
It would suit someone who is technically curious, practical, detail-focused and confident working between design and delivery teams to help keep projects moving properly on site.
Package
The package includes a competitive salary, company benefits and long-term career development. The role also offers exposure to major civil engineering and infrastructure schemes, a stable regional workload, strong operational support and the opportunity to develop within a respected main contractor environment.
