• Help ensure works are completed to the required standard and within programme expectations
• Maintain organised, accurate, and up‑to‑date site records throughout the duration of the project

Requirements

• Previous experience working as a Site Engineer on residential groundworks projects
• Strong setting out capability and confidence working independently on site
• Good understanding of QA procedures, as‑built information, and engineering documentation
• Ability to interpret drawings and support practical site delivery effectively
