Principal Civil Engineer

The Opportunity

I’m working with an award-winning, multi-disciplinary design consultancy that continues to secure some of the UK’s most high-profile development projects.

Due to continued growth, they’re looking to bring in a Principal Civil Engineer to play a key role in delivering a strong pipeline of residential, commercial and education schemes.

This is a senior, client-facing position with real influence over projects, team direction and technical delivery — without being tied to the office full-time.

• Lead the design and delivery of infrastructure schemes across residential, commercial and education projects
• Oversee drainage, highways and external works design
• Manage projects from feasibility through to detailed design and construction support
• Act as a key point of contact for clients and stakeholders
• Mentor and support junior engineers
• Drive quality, efficiency and technical excellence across projects

• Strong background in civil engineering design (drainage & infrastructure)
• Experience working on residential and/or commercial developments
• Proven ability to manage projects and liaise with clients
• Knowledge of approvals (S38, S104, S278 etc.)
• Comfortable leading teams and reviewing technical work
