Senior Engineer – Shape the Ground, Shape the Future
Are you ready to take the lead in turning complex designs into flawless on-site execution?
We’re looking for a Senior Engineer with 3–5 years of experience to own the process from first tender documents to final project handover. You’ll be the technical backbone of our operations—translating plans into precise 3D models, managing data with forensic accuracy, and ensuring our site teams hit the ground running.
This role is perfect for an engineer who’s ready to step up—leading technical delivery, mentoring junior staff, and bringing clarity to high-value projects.
What you’ll be doing:
- Taking control of incoming project information—reviewing scopes, drawings, and surveys with a sharp eye for risk and opportunity.
- Building accurate 3D ground models and cut/fill volume assessments, ensuring every assumption is clear and defensible.
- Producing machine control models (Trimble/Topcon) that make site start-up seamless.
- Managing tender and pre-construction document control so our designs and models are always based on the latest approved data.
- Handing over projects to site engineers with comprehensive packs and crystal-clear instructions.
- Coaching junior engineers, raising standards, and sharing your expertise on the ground.
Why this role matters:
From the first RFI to the last sign-off, you’ll be the one turning raw data into actionable insights and ensuring projects are built right, first time. Your work will directly influence cost accuracy, programme certainty, and on-site efficiency.
What we’re looking for:
- 3–5 years’ engineering experience, ideally in civil, earthworks, or infrastructure projects.
- Proven skill in building 3D models, volume calculations, and producing machine control files.
- Strong document control and information management capability.
- A collaborative mindset with a knack for mentoring others.
What you’ll get:
- A chance to lead technically while still getting hands-on with the tools.
- Opportunities to work on high-profile, varied projects.
- Support to grow your leadership skills while expanding your technical expertise.
If you’re ready to make your mark, join us and help give every site team the best possible start.
