  • Represent the organization as a thought leader, contributing to industry forums, publishing technical papers, and shaping standards.
  • Proactively identify technical and commercial risks, ensuring project resilience and stakeholder confidence.

  • You are a Chartered Engineer or equivalent (e.g. CPEng, PE, PEng).
  • You have a proven track record leading major infrastructure projects involving underground works, such as road, rail, water, and utility tunnels, as well as large-scale foundations, retaining structures, and ground improvement schemes.
  • You possess outstanding verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to distil complex technical concepts for diverse audiences.
  • You're an inspirational team builder, known for leading high-performing, multidisciplinary teams in fast-paced, high-stakes environments.
  • You have a strong understanding of the commercial drivers in consulting, contracting, and design-build environments; experience in project costing, risk allocation, and value engineering.
