* Experience working on highways and infrastructure projects
* Proven experience delivering schemes from design through to construction
* The ability to undertake site visits and inspections
* Strong project management skills and the ability to manage multiple live projects simultaneously
Desirable Experience
Experience in one or more of the following areas would be advantageous:
* Public realm projects
* Car park design and construction
* Footpaths, Public Rights of Way (PROW) or recreational infrastructure
* Environmental improvement schemes
* Local Authority engineering projects
What's on Offer?
* Hybrid working arrangement
