Site Engineer

Site Engineer | Civil Engineering | Yorkshire | £50k - £55k + Package

Looking for a Site Engineer role with an established civil engineering contractor delivering a strong pipeline of projects across Yorkshire?

We're recruiting for an experienced Site Engineer to join a well-established regional contractor delivering a varied portfolio of civil engineering and infrastructure projects.

This is a site-based role where you'll be involved in much more than setting out. You'll play an important part in the day-to-day delivery of projects, working closely with Site Managers and the wider project team to ensure works are delivered safely, accurately and to the required quality.

The Role;

  • Setting out and surveying across civil engineering projects
  • Working from construction drawings and ensuring latest revisions are used on site
  • Checking line, level and specification throughout the works
  • Supporting the day-to-day coordination of site operatives and subcontractors
  • Ensuring works are delivered in accordance with drawings and project specifications
  • Carrying out site inductions and daily briefings
  • Maintaining high standards of health, safety and environmental compliance
  • Completing site records and maintaining accurate project documentation
  • Taking pre-start, progress and completion photographs throughout the project
  • Checking materials and deliveries against project requirements
  • Recording and collating as-built information

What We're Looking For;

  • Previous experience as a Site Engineer within civil engineering or infrastructure
  • Strong setting out and surveying experience
  • Ability to confidently read and work from construction drawings
  • Good understanding of construction methods and site processes
  • Experience maintaining accurate site records and as-built information
  • Good understanding of health & safety and quality requirements
  • Comfortable working with site teams, subcontractors and management
  • Strong communication and organisational skills

Why Consider It?

  • Established civil engineering contractor with a strong presence across Yorkshire
  • Varied regional civil engineering workload
  • Role offering involvement in both the technical and operational side of projects
  • Stable, long-term opportunity with a healthy pipeline of work
  • Good opportunity to develop towards Site Management or Site Agent level

This could suit an experienced Site Engineer looking for a long-term move, or someone earlier in their career who has developed strong setting-out experience and is ready to take on greater responsibility on site.

Interested? Get in touch for a confidential conversation and I'll happily talk you through the business, upcoming projects and package in more detail.
