Key Notes
Working under senior-engineer supervision, the Birmingham post owns defined geotechnical tasks and work packages. Outputs include calculations, drawings, models, reports and specifications, alongside multidisciplinary coordination, technical risk escalation and bid input. The profile lists geotechnical design experience, relevant software and CDE use, ISO 19650 awareness, graduate professional registration and a relevant degree. The contract is permanent.
What You'll Work On
- Produce geotechnical calculations, drawings, models, technical reports and specifications for defined work packages at the relevant project stage.
- Check personal deliverables for accuracy, completeness and compliance with engineering standards, legal duties, project procedures and stated requirements.
- Coordinate geotechnical inputs with interfacing disciplines, recording assumptions, constraints and technical risks for senior engineers or project managers.
- Apply safe-by-design and risk-management principles when developing practical solutions that balance quality, cost, programme and safety constraints.
- Provide geotechnical content for proposals, bids and studies while preparing clear technical correspondence and work-package progress information.
Why This Role Matters
- Geotechnical assumptions and constraints affect interfaces with other design disciplines; timely risk communication gives senior engineers and project managers evidence for coordinated infrastructure solutions.
- SYSTRA’s assigned work packages must satisfy technical and safety requirements; checking deliverables and applying safe-by-design principles supports accurate, compliant engineering outputs for the project.
What They Are Looking For
- Domain: Geotechnical knowledge and experience, including awareness of interfacing disciplines’ design and detailing, are sought.
- Experience: Supervised design-engineering experience with responsibility for project or work-package deliverables is sought.
- Technical: Relevant engineering software, modelling tools and project CDE proficiency are sought, with digital information-management and ISO 19650 awareness where applicable.
- Qualification: A relevant degree or equivalent, graduate professional registration and progress towards a qualification such as EngTech, IEng or CEng, as applicable, are sought.
- Domain: Awareness of commercial and contract conditions affecting budgets, programmes and timescales is sought.
