This is a hands-on role suited to someone with experience designing temporary works in a live site environment.

* Create detailed technical drawings using 2D and 3D CAD software
* Assess risk and compliance across all designs, ensuring health and safety standards are met
* Organise site logistics and coordinate temporary works resources (scaffolding, plant, access structures etc.)
* Liaise with customers and project teams to present temporary works solutions for sign-off
* Collaborate closely with SHEQ, BIM, and Project Delivery teams to align temporary works with wider project requirements
* Maintain clear documentation for all temporary works and contribute to audits, quality reviews, and safety checks
* Foster a positive culture of safety, compliance, and continuous improvement across the project lifecycle
Skills & Experience Required:
* Background in civil, structural, or temporary works engineering
* Experience designing temporary works in a construction or infrastructure environment
* Familiar with AutoCAD (2D & 3D) and other CAD tools for technical design work
* Strong understanding of health & safety in a site-based environment
* Able to produce technical designs and risk assessments for temporary installations
* Comfortable working with site teams and clients to explain, adapt, and approve plans
* Excellent organisational and communication skills
* Full UK driving licence – occasional travel required (pool/hire car provided)
