Your Purpose:

You will be coordinating engineering or construction tasks for and on behalf of our clients or taking responsibility for delivering packages of work. You’ll enjoy working with others and are prepared to deliver projects at client sites (e.g. North East, East Midlands, or in South Wales ) as part of Atkins site based engineering delivery teams and / or through regular site visits during key delivery phases.

Do you enjoy a wide variety of tasks and projects? We are looking for someone versatile; you could be working on a small individual assignment or as part of a larger, multi-disciplinary team. You will enjoy working closely with clients on a range of demanding issues.

  • Experience of site-based operations, construction or commissioning.
  • Knowledge of safety on construction sites, including risk assessment techniques.
  • Experience of the pre-tender and tender stages of procuring contracts for the design, manufacturing and/or installation of industrial equipment.
