Confident communicating with site teams, subcontractors and senior management.

Organised, proactive and comfortable managing priorities across several live projects.

The Opportunity:

This is a fantastic opportunity to join an established Tier 1 contractor with a strong reputation for delivering complex, high-profile construction and infrastructure projects.

With responsibility across a portfolio of schemes throughout North London and East Anglia, this role offers excellent variety, autonomy and the opportunity to make a real impact across multiple project teams.

A great opportunity for an engineer looking to take ownership of engineering delivery beyond a single site and develop their career within a leading construction business.
