Transport Manager - Bridges and Structures Waverley Court Salary: £54,476 - £65,184 Hours: 36 per week, 52 weeks A new opportunity has arisen within Roads & Infrastructure, usually based at Waverley Court but currently a hybrid working style between home and the office. As a result of an internal restructure, an enhanced Structures team has been formed to support the continued asset management of all of the Council's roads structures assets; including bridges, tunnels, gantries, large culverts and walls. Moving forward, the team will also support wider Council projects such as pier and harbour works, remote footbridges and slope stability issues within the city. The successful candidate will help grow and develop, and then lead the existing core team of 8 staff to meet this challenge. Our forward-thinking and carbon-conscious team is embracing technologies such as GIS, information modelling, laser scanning, drone surveys, and digital asset management. The successful candidate will be able to influence the future direction of this work in conjunction with external consultancies and contractors, whilst in a Client role. We are seeking a Chartered Civil or Structural Engineer with previous team leader experience. A strong commercial ability is also essential. Due to how the team is embracing new technologies, an interest in this alongside a core ability in bridge design and assessment is necessary. Your communication skills will be detailed and clear to be able to speak with senior managers and councillors as well as being able to effectively manage and direct the team.
