Offer description

An established and highly respected infrastructure contractor is seeking an experienced Sub Agent to support the successful delivery of multidisciplinary rail and civil engineering projects across the UK.

Operating across a diverse portfolio including civil engineering, drainage, fencing, electrification and specialist infrastructure services, this organisation has built a strong reputation for safety, quality and innovation within the infrastructure sector.

This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious Sub Agent looking to progress within a growing business delivering essential infrastructure works for major clients nationwide.

The Role

Reporting to the Project Manager, you will be responsible for supporting the safe, efficient and profitable delivery of infrastructure projects from planning through to completion.

Key responsibilities will include:

Assisting with the management of site operations and subcontractors
Ensuring works are delivered safely, on time and within budget
Supporting programme planning and short-term works planning
Monitoring progress and maintaining accurate site records
Managing health, safety, environmental and quality standards
Liaising with clients, suppliers and internal departments
Assisting with commercial reporting and cost control
This role is predominantly 70% office-based, with the rest of the time spent on site.
Working Pattern

Due to the nature of infrastructure projects and planned possession works, this role requires a flexible approach to working hours. There will be a requirement to work occasional weekends, and out-of-hours shifts in line with project and operational demands.

About You

To be considered for this position, you will have:

Experience within civil engineering, construction, infrastructure or utilities projects
Previous experience in a Sub Agent, Section Engineer, Site Engineer or supervisory position
Experience within the rail sector would be advantageous but is not essential, as full industry training and support can be provided
Technical qualification, Civils Degree or HNC/HND
SMSTS or SSSTS qualification desirable
Full UK driving licence
This opportunity would suit candidates looking to transition into the rail industry from other construction or infrastructure sectors.

What’s On Offer

Ongoing training and career development
Opportunity to work on major UK infrastructure projects
Long-term progression within a growing and forward-thinking contractor
If you are looking to join a business with a strong pipeline of work, a collaborative culture and genuine progression opportunities within the infrastructure sector, we would love to hear from you.
