Coordinate and manage design interfaces with construction teams, internal and external designers, ensuring that 3rd party information is made available via HS2 to meet the design delivery schedule and that integration is safe, buildable, maintainable and technically robust and compliant with contractual requirements. Input into engineering workshops, assumptions process, design reviews and integration or technical steering groups. Oversee the Interface Control Documents (ICDs) related to Calvert IMD and maintain clear, auditable records, working closely with the Integration and Interface lead to capture information in the Interface Management Tool (Relatics). Support the resolution of interfaces, ensuring timely close-out with Main Works Civils, Rail Systems, HS2, and other stakeholders. Prepare minutes, notes and technical reports to ensure transparent communication and accurate documentation. Identify opportunities to improve design by incorporating buildability, quality, safety and value optimisation. Support risk identification, mitigation and reporting relating to Calvert IMD integration. Ensure all interface activities are managed in line with programme and escalate issues proactively where needed. Maintain and promote awareness of SHE hazards and demonstrate active commitment to minimise associated risks. Work location London. Attend meetings with the broader design, integration and construction teams and client in Birmingham / London, or as required. Support coordination of designer CDM duties. Who are we looking for? Technical and management skills, with a positive and collaborative approach. Enthusiastic team player, able to listen, understand, engage and motivate, and with confidence to make decisions when required. Degree-qualified in a Construction related field or equivalent Systems related degree; Chartered or approaching Chartered status preferred. Experience in Interface Management or Systems Integration, with good knowledge of structures, utilities, civils or infrastructure, ideally within a Rail environment, along with an understanding of track and signalling would be preferable. Ability to interpret reports, drawings, details, and to understand their implications for the Calvert IMD assets. Familiarity with interface management, technical assurance processes, assumptions management process and formal workflows for design coordination (ICDs, risk registers, change management, requirements traceability). Understanding of design procedures and British/Eurocode standards Preferably knowledge of HS2 processes and standards Ability to work in a collaborative multidisciplinary team environment. A good commercial understanding of contracts, procurement routes and risk management. Strong appreciation for 3D design and BIM and digital engineering, with the ability to use model reviews to identify clashes and integration risks. Excellent communication both interpersonal and formal reporting able to challenge constructively and influence decision-making. Professional approach with clients, designers, JV partners, subcontractors and suppliers. Joint Venture Project Information The Ferrovial BAM Joint Venture (FBJV) has a successful history of delivering critical infrastructure for the UK on time and to budget together in joint venture partnership. They first worked together in 2010 as BFK, delivering three Crossrail contracts, including the longest stretch of tunnelling works between Royal Oak and Farringdon and Farringdon Station, the first central station to be completed on the Elizabeth Line. The team also successfully delivered Silvertown Tunnel project together in East London and has been delivering excellence at each stage of HS2, such as Fusion JV for the Enabling Works packages, EKFB for the central Main Works Contract and now delivering the track infrastructure across the entire HS2 route.
