Job Description

The Field Engineer is responsible for delivering surveillance of quality compliance within their designated section of the Works, in alignment with the project’s surveillance strategy and quality requirements.

Reporting to the Construction Superintendent for day‑to‑day direction, the Field Engineer will also contribute to wider site management activities and maintain a high level of coordination with other operational members of the project team. In addition to reporting and liaison duties, the Field Engineer is expected to follow all company policies, procedures and protocols relating to construction, health and safety, and quality—and to recommend enhancements where appropriate.

Key Responsibilities

Verify that the Works are constructed in accordance with the Contractor’s Work Information and notify the Construction Superintendent of any deviations or Non‑Conformance Request (NCR) requirements.

Contribute surveillance information to support KPI reporting and performance monitoring.
Identify potential quality issues before they arise and support the implementation of effective mitigation actions.
Support instructions to implement temporary measures that maintain safety and quality standards and take appropriate follow‑up actions (e.g., issuing communications, convening meetings) to avoid disruption to the Works.
Ensure that no design decisions are taken informally “in the field” by EDF Energy or contractors; all decisions must follow the formal Quality Process.
Maintain awareness of current and upcoming site activities to provide informed support to the construction team.
Ensure tasks are delivered to the required quality levels in accordance with company expectations for health, safety and environmental performance.
Develop and maintain a strong understanding of contractual Technical Requirements, construction drawings, construction activities, Quality Control Plans and Quality Inspection Records.
