• Supervise a team of 2-3 operatives on Scottish Water and civil projects
• Work on the tools alongside your team
• Handle daily diaries, brief RAMS, record site progress, and liaise with the Dundee office
• Currently requires some travel / staying away, but transitioning to more local work as projects increase in the area

What We're Looking For

• Strong civil engineering experience (preferred over pure Scottish Water background)
• Willing to work away when required
• Ideally based in Dundee or within 50-mile radius (Brechin, Forfar, Stonehaven area)

What You'll Get

• Hourly rate : £19.90-21.90 (on the books, not freelance)
• Genuine work-life balance—flexibility for family commitments
• Training and development opportunities
• Join a company where average length of service is 20+ years
