About the role
Balfour Beatty is currently recruiting an Engineering Manager to join the Power T&D team in Glasgow, Scotland.
The main function of the role is to lead and manage Project Engineering Teams in the delivery of all design and engineering works associated with the scope of a construction project.
Background does not have to be within the High Voltage Power industry, as construction design management and product development experience are transferable. Our stakeholders, clients, and engineering teams value strong leadership and a commitment to project goals.
Engineering Managers are expected to foster positive engagement with internal and external stakeholders to manage scope, risks, and project timelines.
This is an exciting opportunity for an energetic, passionate individual interested in engineering and project management.
We are open to both full-time and part-time candidates (including job share) and offer a flexible working policy.
What you'll be doing
* Lead the engineering team in designing and installing complex critical national infrastructure.
* Collaborate with the engineering team to ensure projects are delivered on time, within budget, and to high standards of quality and safety.
* Coordinate with all functions within Balfour Beatty, focusing on providing optimal engineering solutions from a technical and value engineering perspective.
* Identify and manage project risks, implementing mitigations during the Engineering Design phase to ensure project success.
Who we're looking for
* Degree in a relevant discipline.
* Experience leading engineering teams in design and build construction or installation projects.
* Background in Design, Project, Programme, or Construction Management.
* Familiarity with the Power Industry is beneficial but not essential.
