About the role
Balfour Beatty is currently recruiting an Engineering Manager to join the Power T&D team in Derby.
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 High Voltage Power industry, as construction design management and product development experience is transferable. Our stakeholders, clients, and engineering teams respect good quality leadership and the willingness to achieve the project goals.
Engineering Managers are expected to lead positive engagement with internal and external stakeholders to manage the scope, risks, and programme for the project.
This is an exciting opportunity for an energetic, passionate individual who has an interest 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 team of engineers, in the design and installation of complex critical national infrastructure.
* Work collaboratively with the engineering team to ensure that your portfolio of projects are delivered on time, within budget, and to the highest quality and safety standards.
* Coordinate with all functions within Balfour Beatty, emphasizing the provision of the right engineering solutions from both a technical and value engineering perspective.
* Identify and manage project risks, implementing necessary mitigations during the Engineering Design phase to ensure project success.
Who we're looking for
* Degree level education in a relevant discipline.
* Experience leading engineering teams in the delivery of 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.
