Job description

I’m currently working with a Tier 1 main contractor with a strong Central London commercial portfolio, who are looking to appoint an experienced Senior Engineer on a £90m, 12-storey commercial new-build project in Monument.

This is a technically involved role where you’ll have the opportunity to stay with the project through its full two-year construction programme, taking responsibility from the early structural works and piling through to the external envelope and handover.

The project

The development is a major commercial new build alongside the River Thames, forming a significant addition to the contractor’s Central London portfolio.

For the right Engineer, this offers genuine ownership of a project rather than joining for one specific phase, with involvement across:

• Piling and substructure works
• Setting out and surveying
• Structural frame and associated works
• Design coordination and technical queries
• CDP packages and subcontractor design
• Temporary works coordination
• Structural interfaces and construction sequencing
• External envelope
• QA and technical compliance
• Managing and coordinating engineering delivery through to handover

You’ll work closely with the Project Manager, Site Team, Design Team and specialist subcontractors, taking ownership of the engineering function and ensuring the project is delivered correctly from a technical and setting-out perspective.

The opportunity

The contractor has a strong reputation for delivering complex commercial new builds and structural cut and carve projects, with a substantial pipeline of work across Central London.

This is an opportunity for an Engineer who wants to work on a £90m project from the ground up, gaining exposure across multiple disciplines rather than being restricted to a single package.

I’m particularly interested in speaking with Senior Engineers / Engineers from Tier 1 or major main contractor backgrounds who have strong structural and commercial experience and are looking for a long-term project where they can take genuine ownership.

Package

Up to £75,000 basic salary + travel allowance on top
