As a Highways England Regional Delivery Partner, we’re helping to deliver projects that shape the future of the UK’s transport network. You’ll work directly with Highways England and a range of high-profile clients, becoming a key player in a team that’s growing in both size and reputation.

This isn’t just another design role. You’ll be taking the lead on challenging, high-impact highways projects — from the early planning stages right through to delivery:

• Drive the design of public highways — geometry, drainage, pavements and more.
• Use your engineering judgement to tackle problems, make decisions, and keep projects moving.
• Mentor and inspire graduates and engineers, shaping the next generation of talent.
• Collaborate across disciplines to bring multi-dimensional projects to life.
• Work with developers, contractors and local authorities — adapting to different client needs and building strong partnerships.

Every day will bring fresh challenges and opportunities to learn, lead and grow.

We’re looking for more than just technical know-how — we want someone with the confidence and passion to make an impact. You’ll bring:

• Strong technical independence with Civil 3D and MicroDrainage (OpenRoads or PDS experience also welcome with a willingness to upskill).
• Confidence liaising with clients, consultants and project managers.
• Commercial awareness with the ability to negotiate, influence and grow relationships.
• A visible, hands-on leadership style — willing to take responsibility for technical solutions while supporting and mentoring others.
• Excellent communication skills — able to adapt your style to suit different audiences.
• A collaborative, proactive mindset, combined with positivity, drive and a real desire to succeed.

At BWB, you’ll join a consultancy that’s ambitious, forward-thinking, and people-focused. We’ll give you the platform to make a real impact on major projects, while building your career in an environment that values innovation, collaboration and progression.

This is your opportunity to lead on exciting highways projects, influence how the UK moves, and grow with a business that’s committed to backing your ambitions.

• High-Performance Culture – Work alongside a driven, innovative team where ideas are encouraged and success is celebrated.
• Competitive Salary & Benefits – Enjoy a market-leading package with 5% pension match, healthcare cash plan, and exclusive perks.
• Career Growth – Access fully funded development programmes, chartership support, and professional memberships to drive your progression.
