• The ability to support and mentor less experienced engineers.
• Willingness to travel and occasionally work nights or weekends where required by rail projects

Experience within rail, defence, nuclear, data centres or aviation would be particularly valuable. Knowledge of BIM requirements and project-delivery structures would also be advantageous.

Candidates working towards Incorporated or Chartered Engineer status are encouraged to apply.

Due to the nature of some projects, you must either hold a valid Personal Track Safety certificate or be willing to obtain one. Medical and drug and alcohol screening will apply when undertaking safety-critical rail work.
