Fantastic opportunities have arisen to join BEAR Scotland’s NW team as a Road Network Inspector or an Asset Inspector.
The North West Trunk Road Unit spans approximately 1,422 km of trunk roads through scenic parts of Scotland, including 1,501 bridges and structures such as the Kessock Bridge and the A87 Skye Crossing.
The area covered ranges from Thurso and Wick in the Highlands to Campbeltown in Argyll and Bute, and from Uig on Skye to Perth and Stirling in the central belt.
