Key Notes
Experience acting as a CRE or Engineering Manager on railway civil or station projects is required, together with CEng or IEng and ICE or IStructE membership. You’ll lead engineering decisions, review design and BIM documentation, develop colleagues and pursue bids. The post combines railway standards knowledge with commercial control and management of specialist project stakeholders.
What You'll Work On
- Act as CRE for railway civil or station projects, or Engineering Manager on multidisciplinary railway schemes, coordinating technical decisions.
- Produce and review civil engineering designs and supporting drawings, BIM deliverables, calculations and specifications for new works and renewals.
- Lead bids, manage client and specialist stakeholder relationships, and guide junior engineers while developing civil engineering capability within the business.
Why This Role Matters
- Railway civil and station schemes require a named engineering lead to coordinate design decisions, with reviewed calculations and documentation forming the basis of the project’s technical deliverables.
- Network Rail and other clients bring civil engineering problems requiring coordinated disciplines; the role translates those needs into proposals and agreed packages of engineering work.
