    • Provide cost effective technical solutions
    • Chair design team meetings and issue actions
    • Produce designs that meet all necessary statutory and regulatory approvals and record on appropriate tracking logs

      Essential and Desirable Criteria

      The ideal candidate:

      • Will have managed design on projects between 10 and 40 million pounds across multiple sectors.
      • Blue light project experienced is desired but not essential
      • Have an understanding of CAD, Microsoft Office and various other construction technology
      • Be able to read and interpret drawings and technical specifications
      • Able to mange specialist designers/ subcontractors and supply chain partners
      • Hold a valid driving license and a CSCS card
