We have an exciting opportunity for a Senior / Principal Civil Engineer to join our Civil Infrastructure team in Cambridge. We’ve built a great reputation over the years and now we look forward to a period of further expansion ahead as we grow our presence in the Midlands and the East.

This role will give you the opportunity to work with a team of experienced and developing Civil Engineers and you will oversee all aspects of our projects from inception to completion. You will advise on the delivery of a wide range of regional and national projects in the development and infrastructure sectors, from strategic urban extensions, logistics parks, and urban regeneration projects.

Important to your success, will be your contribution with the Midlands and East leadership team to identify the future direction for the group. You will work closely with other senior members of our team and the wider business, to deliver key and important projects for our clients. You will also mentor, guide and inspire more junior colleagues across our Civil Engineering team.

Your role will be varied and challenging, and there will be opportunities for you to develop and progress your own career.

About you

You will be degree qualified in civil engineering or similar and professionally qualified to either CEng or IEng. You will be focused on achieving coordinated solutions, a tactical thinker and effective at communicating with both internal and external parties (for example utility companies, drainage authorities, highway authorities).

Ideally, you will have expertise in infrastructure design to deliver multi-disciplinary projects for the entire lifecycle – from concept and planning through to detailed design and delivery; highway design and on-site supervision experience is preferable.
