This suits someone who enjoys being hands-on, takes pride in technical accuracy, and wants to work on projects that matter.

• Setting out civil and structural elements to required tolerances
• Producing and maintaining ITPs, check sheets, and as-built records
• Coordinating with subcontractors and supervising day-to-day works
• Raising RFIs and managing technical queries
• Maintaining daily site diaries, photographic records, and documentation
• Supporting the site management team with programme and quality delivery

What You Will Need

• Proven experience as a Site Engineer on civil engineering or water infrastructure projects
