• Extensive experience in civil engineering projects’ technical delivery (earthworks, roads, drainage and flooding),
• Experience working on the design of infrastructure projects,
• Experience in obtaining all necessary approvals from regulatory bodies,
• Experience in multi-disciplinary engineering consultancy projects,
• Demonstrable technical review/assurance skills,
• Working knowledge of 2D & 3D design software (AutoCAD, Civil3D),
• Working knowledge of drainage design software (MicroDrainage/InfoDrainage),
• Working knowledge of design standards and codes of practice, such as Design and Construction Guidance for foul and surface water sewers, SuDS Manual (C753), the design Manual for Roads and Bridges, and Manual for Streets, etc,
• Working knowledge of health and safety requirements and CDM 2015,
• Excellent English verbal and written communication skills,
• Experience in leading, developing and growing an engineering team,
• Experience in project management,
• Working knowledge of Highways Authority Sections 38 and 278 and Water Authority Sections 104 and 185 agreements,
• Experience in site supervision,
• Experience in the application of BIM,
• Engaging and coordinating with project stakeholders such as planning authorities, the Environment Agency and DNOs.
