Manchester

£50k-£55k plus benefits

Our client specialises in all aspects of civil engineering, within multiple challenging and engaging sectors such as Aviation, Defence, Energy, Cities & Development, Education and Water. They provide industry-leading civil engineering solutions right through the project lifecycle, with value added through client-side support as well as construction phases.

Our client recognises that there are many well qualified people who are looking to further their career, but who cannot commit to full time employment. They support flexible working arrangements and are interested to discuss how they can accommodate individual requirements. As part of this commitment, they understand the need for a diverse and flexible workforce, where a work-life balance is important. So, by default they offer flexible working, where there is no fixed 9 'till 5, no need for a 5-day week, no requirement for a full-time contract, and no requirement to spend all your working time in the office.

The role:

• Manage a team to undertake technical design work following relevant design standards and codes and to high-quality levels.
• Prepare briefs, scopes of work, and input into bid proposals.
• Successfully manage time and budgets to key project milestones and programmes.
• Work closely with teams in the UK and overseas to deliver integrated design solutions.
• Adhere to quality assurance standards in design.

About you:

• Chartered Civil Engineer.
• Experience in design delivery, including multidisciplinary design.
• Sound knowledge in external works design such as utilities, paved and unpaved surfaces, earthworks, access and accessibility, construction logistics, and familiarity with current UK design standards and working practices.
• Proficiency in designing within appropriate digital analysis packages, following local and national guidance. Eg MicroDrainage, InfoWater, Causeway Flow or InfoWorks for drainage.

Our client is offering the successful candidate a competitive salary that is regularly tested against other consultants with a default 25-days leave each year plus bank holidays and options to buy some or sell of that leave. Salary and benefits will be commensurate with experience and qualifications.
