Build Manchester. Lead Civil Projects. Be Unstoppable.
We’re on the hunt for a Senior Civil Engineer who doesn’t just follow plans, they own them. Earthworks, drainage, pavements, external works? You know them inside out. You can navigate 3D underground services, deliver multidisciplinary projects, and build rock-solid relationships with clients and stakeholders.
What you bring:
* Degree in Civil Engineering (or equivalent)
* Technical mastery of earthworks, drainage, pavement design, and external works
* Drainage design software skills (Microdrainage/Infodrainage a bonus, others welcome)
* Experience delivering multidisciplinary projects
* Knowledge of 3D underground services coordination
* Strong client and stakeholder engagement
* Design consultancy experience working on projects in the UK.
* Design experience a must, this is not a role for a site engineer looking to follow designs, but a civil engineer drawing the designs themselves
Bonus points:
* Chartered or Incorporated Member of ICE (or working towards)
* Experience across any sector - if your civil skills are strong, we want you (sectors we work in a bonus)
Step in. Lead projects. Shape Manchester’s future.
