CAD Technician

I''m currently working with a well-established transport and infrastructure consultancy looking to strengthen its technical team with the appointment of a Design Technician.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone with around 2+ years'' experience in highway design, transport planning or a related engineering environment who enjoys producing high-quality technical drawings and supporting development-focused projects.

Working within a collaborative team, you''ll be involved in delivering preliminary highway and junction designs, access arrangements, swept path assessments and professional graphics that support planning and transport projects across the UK.

Key responsibilities will include:

• Producing technical drawings using AutoCAD
• Preparing highway access and junction layouts, including priority junctions, roundabouts and signalised junctions
• Undertaking Swept Path Analysis using AutoTrack
• Producing high-quality graphics and figures using GIS and graphic design software
• Supporting the delivery of transport planning and infrastructure projects
• Working closely with engineers and transport planners to develop design solutions
• Contributing to reports, presentations and client deliverables

I''m keen to speak with candidates who have:

• A qualification in Civil Engineering, Geography, Transport Planning or a related discipline (HNC/HND/Degree)
• At least 2 years'' relevant industry experience
• Experience using AutoCAD
• Working knowledge of AutoTrack for vehicle tracking assessments
• Exposure to development-focused transport planning or highway design projects
• Strong communication skills and attention to detail
• A proactive attitude with the ability to work independently and as part of a team

Experience with GIS, CorelDRAW or similar graphics packages would be advantageous but is not essential.

In return, you''ll receive:

• Competitive salary based on experience
• 25 days annual leave, increasing with service
• Flexible and hybrid working arrangements
• Private medical insurance
• Health cash plan
• Enhanced pension provision
• Life assurance and death-in-service cover

If you''re a Design Technician looking to develop your career within a respected transport and infrastructure consultancy, I''d be interested in having a confidential conversation.
