Our approach to integrated design produces award winning results that have won international recognition and named CIHT's Employer of the Year in 2021. Led by a forward-thinking management team we work together in multi-disciplinary teams that provide services that are well thought-out and sustainable.

We are currently looking for a Senior Civil & Infrastructure Engineer to join our team based at our offices in either Brighton or Ashford. You will join a vibrant team and work on prestigious projects within across the Southeast.
Whilst predominantly based in the Southeast, the role will include regular co-operation and inter-office working with other regional teams.
As an NCE Top 100 Company we provide high quality technical support to the public and private sector clients which require a coordinated support at a local level.

We recognise our greatest strength is the people we employ, and we are committed to developing talent and providing staff with the skills and knowledge they need to not only do their job well now, but to equip them for life as their careers unfold. Our staff say our people and our diversity are our biggest strengths and our Equality and Inclusion Group and Women's Network are ensuring that inclusion is at the heart of our policies, processes, and practices. As standard we offer flexible working to everyone and the ability to work remotely when needed. Project Centre is a people focused organisation. We care about our colleagues and part of that is to help every employee to achieve a healthy work-life balance.

Our clients in the Southeast include a range of local authorities such as:

• Kent County Council
• Dartford Borough Council
• Folkstone & Hythe District Council
• Brighton & Hove City Council
• Crawley Borough Council
• Worthing Borough Council
• Arun District Council
• Worthing BC
• Surrey Heath BC

as well as design and build schemes with national and local contractors.

You will work on a range of infrastructure projects bringing real change to our communities by providing new Public Realm improvements, vital transport links and delivering access to jobs and driving social value through the wider benefits of our projects.

Here are just a few examples of the recent successes of our team:

• Herne Relief Road - KCC
• Dartford High St Regeneration - KCC
• Portland Rd Public Realm Improvement - WBC
• Valley Gardens Phase 1 & 2 - BHCC
• Queensway Regeneration - CBC
• Littlehampton High St Regeneration D&B - ADC
• Camberley High St Regeneration - SHBC

If you aspire to really making a difference and want to work with great colleagues whilst advancing your career, then Project Centre could be the place for you.

The successful candidate will ideally be able to demonstrate qualification and good experience in the following areas:

• Educated to a minimum Degree level in Civil Engineering, or equivalent
• Progression towards Chartered Engineer status with relevant professional institution

• An understanding of service utilities, drainage and external works design
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills with the ability to prepare reports on technical matters

• Technical Excellence (someone experienced in coaching, mentoring and developing people & teams).
• Knowledge of contract preparation & procurement.
• Construction Site Supervision / Support

If you meet 50% or more of what we're looking for, please apply as we appreciated not everyone will meet all the requirements and you'll likely have other skills that would be valuable.
