Guided by our leadership vision of valuing people, embracing agility, and fostering growth, we cultivate an innovative culture that empowers you to achieve your full potential. Unleash your talent and redefine what’s possible. Job Description: The Engineering Manager – Roads, Civils & Structures is responsible for leading and coordinating all civil and structural engineering activities across road and infrastructure projects. The role oversees multi‑disciplinary design and technical delivery (highways, junctions, earthworks, drainage, bridges, retaining walls, culverts, tunnels, ancillary structures, and associated civil works) from concept through detailed design, construction support, and handover. The Engineering Manager ensures safe, compliant, and constructible solutions, effective coordination between disciplines, and alignment with project, client, and regulatory requirements. Key Responsibilities 1. Technical Leadership & Governance Provide technical leadership for roads, civils, and structural engineering across assigned projects or programs. Define and implement engineering standards, procedures, and best practices in line with company, client, and regulatory requirements. Act as the senior technical authority or escalation point for key civil/structural engineering decisions. Ensure that designs incorporate safety in design, durability, maintainability, and whole‑life cost considerations. 2. Multi‑Disciplinary Design Management Plan and manage engineering activities for roads, civils, and structures from concept through detailed design and IFC. Coordinate inputs from internal teams and external consultants (highways, geotechnical, drainage, bridges/structures, traffic, utilities, environmental, etc.). Ensure integration of road alignments, junctions, pavements, drainage, and structures with adjacent infrastructure (utilities, rail, buildings, public realm). Oversee the development and review of key deliverables, including alignments, profiles, typical sections, general arrangement drawings, structural designs, and calculations. 3. Quality, Compliance & Technical Assurance Ensure designs comply with relevant standards, codes, and guidelines. Establish and manage technical review and checking processes. Lead or participate in technical assurance activities, including HAZID, constructability reviews, and value engineering workshops. Work with quality teams to implement project quality plans, ensuring traceability of design decisions and calculations. 4. Interface with Project Management & Construction Work closely with project managers to define scope, schedule, resource requirements, and key engineering milestones. Provide technical input to project execution plans, risk registers, and design delivery programs. Support construction teams with technical clarifications, responses to RFIs, and resolution of site issues. Review method statements and temporary works concepts from an engineering perspective, in coordination with temporary works engineers where applicable. 5. Client, Stakeholder & Authority Engagement Act as a senior technical point of contact for clients, statutory authorities, and key stakeholders on engineering matters. Support or lead technical meetings, workshops, and presentations with clients, road authorities, utility providers, and third parties. Coordinate responses to authority review comments and technical approvals for roads, structures, and drainage. Ensure engineering outputs support planning applications, permitting, and land acquisition processes as required. 6. Risk, Value & Innovation Identify and manage key engineering risks (geotechnical, structural, hydraulic, traffic, constructability, interfaces) and develop mitigation strategies. Lead or support value engineering initiatives to optimize alignments, structures, materials, and construction methods. Promote innovation and digital tools (BIM, 3D modelling, parametric design, analysis tools) to improve efficiency and quality. Capture lessons learned from design and construction and embed them in future engineering approaches. 7. Resource Management & Team Leadership Lead and develop a team of civil, structural, and highway engineers, designers, and CAD/BIM technicians. Plan and allocate resources across projects to meet schedule and quality requirements. Mentor and coach engineering staff, supporting professional development and progression toward chartership or professional registration. Support recruitment, onboarding, and performance management within the engineering team. 8. Commercial & Programme Support Provide engineering input to estimates, proposals, and bids for roads and civils projects. Support commercial teams in defining engineering scope, assumptions, exclusions, and risk allowances. Monitor engineering budgets and progress against plan; identify deviations early and recommend corrective actions. Assist in the technical evaluation of subcontractor and supplier proposals (pavement materials, bridge components, drainage products, etc.). Required Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering, Structural Engineering, or a closely related discipline. 10 years of experience in civil and structural engineering for roads and infrastructure projects, including significant design and/or design‑management responsibility. Strong technical background in highway geometry, earthworks, drainage, and structural design for bridges and related structures. Preferred Qualifications Master’s degree in Civil/Structural Engineering, Transportation, or related field. Chartered/Professional Engineer status. Experience working for a consultant, contractor, or client organization on major highways, urban roads, or infrastructure programs. Familiarity with BIM processes and common data environments for infrastructure projects. Skills & Competencies Strong technical competence in roads, civils, and structural engineering principles and design. Proven ability to manage and coordinate multi‑disciplinary engineering teams. Excellent communication, negotiation, and stakeholder management skills. Strong organizational and planning skills, with the ability to manage multiple concurrent assignments.
