Construction Assurance Manager, High Speed Rail Our client is recruiting Construction Assurance Managers to work on one of the most ambitious civil engineering programmes in Europe, making sure that complex construction work is being built correctly, safely and in line with what has been engineered and planned. You will be on the ground, reviewing construction activity across earthworks, bridges, structures and ground engineering, checking that what is being delivered matches what was designed, and identifying and resolving issues before they become problems.

Experience gained on major roads, major drainage or major earthworks schemes is directly relevant. Our client would also welcome candidates who have held general foreman or junior engineer roles on programmes of this kind, where close site involvement has built a strong practical foundation. Candidates from the rail sector are of interest too, including those with a Contractor's Responsible Engineer background, as the programme will move into rail systems delivery in due course. A working knowledge of NEC3 contract principles and Supervisor responsibilities is expected. You will also need a solid grounding in UK construction regulations, including CDM and construction safety management, and an understanding of health, safety and environmental site management processes. The ability to identify and manage risk, to read and follow a construction programme, and to build effective working relationships with contractors and internal colleagues are all important. A degree in civil engineering, construction or building science is expected, though equivalent practical experience will be considered. Useful to have A background that includes an understanding of how to review construction plans, inspect on site and confirm that what is being installed reflects the engineering intent. Experience of HS2 or a comparable high-speed rail programme. Familiarity with Undertakings and Assurances or equivalent environmental and planning obligation frameworks on major infrastructure. The role will be based along the trace such as Wendover, Aylesbury, Ricksmanworth, Brackley and Southam If this looks right for you, please send your CV across and we will be in touch.
