The Role

Reporting directly to the Directors, you will provide technical leadership across the business, ensuring projects are delivered safely, efficiently, on programme and to the highest technical standards. Working closely with Project Managers, Design Engineers, Site Teams and Clients, you will oversee projects from initial concept through to commissioning and final handover.
