How our sorting works

The order in which job vacancies are displayed is determined by a composite score based on the following factors:

  • Keyword Relevance: How well your search terms match the vacancy details. We prioritize matches found in the job title, followed by job requirements, location names, and educational levels. Matches within general employer information or the organization's name carry a lower weight.
  • Commercial Prioritization (Premium Jobs): Vacancies paid for by employers ('Premium' or 'Sponsored') receive a ranking boost and will appear higher in the search results.
  • Recency (Date Relevance): Newer vacancies are prioritized. The relevance score of a vacancy is reduced by half once the posting is older than 30 days.
  • Proximity (Distance Relevance): Vacancies located closer to your search location are ranked higher. For vacancies located more than 30 km from the search center, the relevance score is halved.
The final ranking is established by multiplying all these individual factors to calculate the total relevance score.

    Projects are located throughout the Yorkshire Water region, with current and upcoming schemes across Barnsley, Sheffield, Doncaster, Wakefield, Leeds and surrounding areas.

    The Role

    As Site Engineer, you will provide technical and engineering support across the delivery of water infrastructure projects, working closely with the Site Agent, Site Manager and wider project team.

    You will be responsible for setting out, surveying, QA and technical coordination, ensuring works are constructed accurately and in accordance with drawings, specifications and project requirements.

    *

    Supporting the management of permanent and temporary works

    *

    Liaising with Site Agents, Site Managers, subcontractors and design teams

    *

    Resolving technical and engineering issues on site

    *

    Monitoring works to ensure compliance with drawings and specifications

    *

    Assisting with RAMS and construction methodologies

    *

    Supporting health, safety, environmental and quality requirements

    *

    Providing engineering input into progress and project meetings
