Job Description
Some projects are just jobs. This isn’t one of them.
We’re supporting a major civil engineering contractor delivering a critical section of a nationally significant energy link in East Lothian — a 10km stretch of infrastructure that will underpin how power is transmitted across the UK for decades to come.
Right now, there’s a key phase underway: transforming a challenging side slope into a stable, engineered platform capable of carrying two HVAC circuits. It’s heavy earthworks, serious volumes (circa 35,000 tonnes of imported material), and it needs to be done right — first time.
That’s where you come in.
They’re looking for a Site Engineer who’s comfortable taking ownership on the ground. Someone who knows their way around Trimble GPS, understands how to translate design into reality, and can keep quality, safety, and progress aligned without needing constant oversight.
You’ll be setting out and controlling earthworks operations, working closely with...
