Full job description

Salary: £31,537 to £42,839 per annum

Grade: H-JK (Career Graded)

Contract: Permanent

Hours: 37 hours per week

Location: Brompton on Swale, North Yorkshire

Would you like to be part of our friendly, welcoming, Area Highways team who are proud to manage all aspects of the highway network we look after in and around the market towns of Richmond, Leyburn, Middleham and many pretty villages within the North Yorkshire Dales National Park?

The Role

You would be part of a team of four project engineers who report to the Improvement Manager and will contribute to the design, delivery and management of all aspects of the highway maintenance improvement capital programme. You will also be working alongside a team of four highway officers who report to the Maintenance Manager, our Highways Customer Communications Officer, Area Manager and business support colleagues.

Find out more about opportunities in Highways here: Highways Opportunities.

We hybrid work with a mixture of working from home and from our office in Brompton on Swale, however your role will take you out and about to help oversee the specific projects and engage with the local communities.

The post holder will:

Design and project manage a significant workload of highway maintenance (approx. £5m annually) involving carriageway and footway resurfacing, drainage schemes, landslips and surface dressing.
Oversee our consultants designs and project management of Highway Maintenance Schemes
Liaise regularly with our delivery partners NYH, maintaining positive relationships
Prepare documents and provide information to support decision making between October and April about when roads and footpaths are gritted
Prepare for the next winter gritting season during May to September

Skills and Experience

An excellent candidate eligible to join us on Grade JK would have either HNC Civil Engineering or equivalent and the experience to deliver some (not all) of the work aspects described above.

However, we would seriously consider suitable applicants who have transferable skills but don’t yet possess exactly the right qualifications or experience. You would need the relevant qualifications and ambition which would permit entry to HNC Civil Engineering on day release to begin your technical career journey with us. Excellent communication and problem-solving skills are necessary and the desire to work in a team environment where cooperation and negotiation is required is essential.

We are a strong performing authority, with supportive political leadership and talented teams providing the platform to have a fulfilling, challenging and successful career in a truly stunning place.
