Temporary Works Design Engineer
Leeds
Are you a Temporary Works Design Engineer who enjoys the technical side of engineering but also likes seeing projects actually get built? Fancy working on the kind of schemes that are genuinely different from the standard day-to-day development work?
This is a chance to join one of the UK's leading specialist Civil Engineering and tunnelling contractors, working on major infrastructure and underground engineering projects across the UK. The Leeds team is continuing to grow and they're now looking to bring in another engineer who can support the delivery of complex temporary works and structural engineering packages on live projects.
The work itself is varied, technical and pretty unique. One week you could be involved in temporary works linked to tunnelling or shaft construction, the next supporting reinforced concrete structures, launch pits, enabling works or specialist Civil Engineering packages on major infrastructure jobs. A lot of the projects are in constrained or technically challenging environments, so the role suits someone who enjoys problem solving and working closely with delivery teams to find practical, buildable solutions.
The business has been involved in some of the UK's biggest infrastructure schemes including HS2, Crossrail and Thames Tideway, alongside a huge amount of specialist work across water, rail, energy and underground engineering. They've built a strong reputation for taking on the projects that others often shy away from due to complexity.
You'll be working as part of an experienced in-house engineering and design team, producing temporary works drawings, technical details, coordinated models and construction issue packages using AutoCAD and Civil 3D. There's also exposure to wider BIM and modelling software including Navisworks, Revit and MicroStation depending on the projects you're involved with.
This isn't one of those roles where you're sat isolated from delivery teams producing the same drawings every day. The engineers here work closely with operations and construction teams, so you'll get genuine involvement in how projects are developed, coordinated and delivered on site.
They're open-minded on background as long as you've got solid experience within temporary works, Civil Engineering, structures or heavy infrastructure projects and are comfortable working within a fast-moving project environment. Someone who enjoys ownership, takes pride in producing quality technical work and likes getting stuck into challenging engineering problems would fit in really well.
The office is based in Leeds centre and the role is office-led due to the collaborative nature of the projects, but in return you'll be joining a business where the projects are genuinely interesting, the workload is secure and the engineering team is heavily valued within the wider company.
Alongside a strong salary, the business offers an excellent wider package including enhanced holidays, private healthcare options, life assurance, pension contributions, gym discounts and long-term progression opportunities within a growing specialist engineering contractor. Their award-winning LIFE culture programme is also a huge part of the business and there's a real focus on safety, wellbeing and looking after staff properly.
