Full Job Description

Are you an experienced engineer with a passion for sustainable design and making a positive impact on the world around you? This role offers a unique chance to lead and innovate within a dynamic team based in Glasgow.

**Why This Role Stands Out:**

- **Impactful Work:** Lead the delivery of walking and cycling infrastructure projects across Scotland and Ireland, contributing to a greener, more sustainable built environment.
- **Professional Growth:** Collaborate with industry experts and high-profile clients, enhancing your technical expertise and communication skills.
- **Leadership Development:** Hone your leadership abilities, people management, and business development skills in a supportive environment.
- **Flexible Working:** Benefit from a flexible, hybrid working model tailored to your needs, ensuring a healthy work-life balance.
- **Competitive Compensation:** Enjoy a market-competitive salary with regular reviews and updates to reflect your contributions and growth.

**Role Responsibilities:**

- Lead and deliver walking and cycling infrastructure projects.
- Collaborate with private and public-sector clients, providing technical expertise.
- Guide, develop, and support a team of engineers, focusing on project resource planning and deadline management.
- Prepare and check drawings, calculations, and technical reports.
- Attend site and project team meetings, with occasional visits to construction sites for surveys and inspections.
- Assist Directors with project planning and specification writing.
- Ensure compliance with the duties of Designer under the CDM Regulations 2015.

**Required Skills and Experience:**

- Chartered Engineer with a creative and passionate approach to engineering.
- Proficiency in AutoCAD, Civil 3D, and MS Office suite.
- Experience with Infrastructure Ireland (TII) Publications, Urban Street Design, Civil Engineering Design, and Highway Geometric Design.
- Knowledge of Design Manual for Urban Roads and Streets (DMURS), Cycle Design Manual, and The Traffic Signs Manual.
- Familiarity with NTA Project Approval Guidelines and Cost Management Guidelines.
- Strong communication skills and a collaborative, helpful outlook.

This role is perfect for a progressive and talented engineer eager to influence and inspire those around them. If you share a strong interest in architecture and the wider public realm, this position offers a rewarding and enriching career path.
