Descripción de la vacante

WSP in the United Kingdom seeks a senior engineer to own and drive engineering delivery from feasibility through execution, ensuring safe, compliant and efficient design aligned to cost and schedule. You will lead multidisciplinary teams, manage interfaces, and apply governance across projects.

You will champion safety-in-design and ISD principles, run risk reviews, and guide digital engineering with E3D/Navisworks. A civil/geotechnical background and UK travel are expected.

Formación

• Significant experience delivering large-scale industrial/mining/process projects across feasibility, FEED and execution.
• Proven track record leading multidisciplinary teams in EPCM, integrated owner or contractor environments.
• Strong background in engineering management, design coordination and project set-up.
• Experience in safety-in-design, technical assurance and governance frameworks.
• Familiar with digital engineering and BIM environments (E3D, Navisworks, integrated data platforms).
• Strong commercial awareness - understands impact of engineering decisions on cost and delivery.
• Able to operate at both strategic level (set-up, governance) and detail (issue resolution, technical decisions).
• Degree qualified in Civil Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, or Engineering Geology (postgraduate qualification desirable).
• Extensive experience in geotechnical design for underground tunnels and shafts in soft ground and/or hard rock.
• Strong understanding of ground behaviour, soil and rock mechanics, and geotechnical risk management.

Responsabilidades

• Own and drive engineering delivery across feasibility, FEED and execution phases, ensuring safe, compliant and efficient design.
• Accountable for end-to-end engineering performance (scope, cost, schedule, quality).
• Set up and manage engineering for projects from early-stage through execution.
• Define engineering scope, deliverables, EWPs and resource plans.
• Lead safety-in-design and inherently safer design (ISD) principles.
• Run HAZIDs / design risk reviews and ensure close-out of residual risks.
• Proactively manage technical risk to protect programme and delivery certainty.
• Establish and apply engineering management plans, basis of design and design criteria.
• Implement design assurance, review and quality processes.
• Manage peer reviews, stage gates and technical decision workflows.
• Lead design change control aligned with client, regulatory and project requirements.
• Track and drive engineering performance using deliverable tracking, earned value and issue management.
• Intervene early on slippage and implement corrective actions.
• Maintain alignment between engineering outputs and project schedule.
• Lead multidisciplinary teams across locations (discipline leads, SMEs, consultants, workshare centres).
• Drive accountability, performance and delivery culture.
• Coach and develop capability within the team, supporting succession and growth.
• Deploy and manage digital engineering environments (Aveva E3D, Navisworks, ISO 19650 aligned systems).
• Lead model federation and 3D/4D design reviews.
• Use digital tools to support constructability, design integration and lifecycle traceability.
• Plan and lead multidisciplinary design reviews (concept, 30/60/90%, model reviews).
• Ensure designs meet requirements for safety, compliance, constructability, operability and maintainability.
• Manage key interfaces across engineering, procurement and construction.
• Coordinate with field teams and contractors to ensure buildable, aligned solutions.
• Lead technical decision-making and value improvement initiatives.
• Capture and embed lessons learned across projects.
