Site Engineer

The quality of the setting out, checks and information on site can make the difference between keeping a major rail project moving and costly delays.

As a Site Engineer, you’ll take a hands-on role in delivering civil engineering works in Norwich, making sure construction is completed accurately, safely and in line with the latest drawings and specifications.

You’ll be working on a rail infrastructure project involving soil nails, earthworks and drainage, with accommodation provided and additional earning potential through overtime.

• £300–£380 per day
• Accommodation provided
• Overtime available to increase your earnings
• 6-month contract on a major rail infrastructure project
• PTS sponsorship available for suitable candidates
• Varied civil engineering works including soil nails, earthworks and drainage

Your responsibilities as Site Engineer

• Complete QA documentation, RFIs and ITPs correctly and maintain appropriate project records
• Read construction drawings, quantify materials and ensure works follow the latest approved information
• Support site management with materials, KPIs, progress reporting and distribution of project information
• Maintain an accurate daily site diary covering progress and construction activities
• Identify potential site issues early and support practical solutions to keep works progressing

What we’re looking for in a Site Engineer

• Previous experience working on rail and civil engineering projects
• Experience of soil nails, earthworks and drainage works
• Competence using EDM and GPS equipment for setting out
• Strong understanding of drawings, material quantities, QA processes, RFIs and ITPs
