Great journeys happen at London Gatwick. Where will your career take you?

The buzz, the energy, the sheer magic of travel... You can feel it in the air all around you. Here, you'll be part of an energetic team and a vibrant community. We can help you thrive in a career that's a world away from the everyday.

What is the role?

As a Project Engineer - Civils, you will play a key role in Gatwick's future, working as part of the Airfield and Civils Construction Programme Delivery Team, leading the design management of critical Civil Engineering and Infrastructure projects within an operational airport environment.

Projects include pavement reconstruction, airfield asset replacement and stand reconfiguration with project values typically exceeding £20m. The Project Engineer role has involvement in every stage of the project lifecycle, and you will also work with the Construction Management Team to ensure that the projects are installed on site in line with the approved design.

What will you do?

Reporting to the Programme Design Manager / Senior Project Engineer, you'll play a pivotal role in leading the design, delivery and technical assurance of projects across the Airfield and Civils Construction Programme.

You will ensure that the design meets project requirements whilst achieving value for money, managing the interface with external design partners so that this process is managed effectively, maintaining progress against an agreed schedule and managing the cost of the work carefully.

Other duties include:
  • Develop the project scope to meet the business needs, along with delivering effective design management on individual projects.
  • Develop the design brief for external design consultants, ensuring that the design contract is implemented and effectively managed through the design process.
  • Guide design solutions promoting the use of best practices and innovative techniques, technologies and processes. Drive consistency and identify opportunities for efficiencies within project delivery.
  • Work with multiple stakeholders to support the successful delivery of projects.
  • Seeking cost effective design solutions and managing external design consultants.
  • Providing technical input to any design changes through the lifecycle of the project.
  • Undertaking the role of Principal Designer Contact to discharge the duties of Principal Designer (CDM Regulations 2015) with the support of the CDM Advisor.
  • Support the effective commissioning and handover of projects through review of as-built information, ensuring quality and completeness in what is delivered against contractual requirements.

Do you have what we're looking for?

The live environment at Gatwick requires all our teams to have a flexible and adaptable approach, with problem solving skills and an innovative outlook. You will be involved in projects from inception to completion whilst working alongside multiple stakeholders. In addition, this role requires:
  • University degree in Civil / Construction Engineering or Construction related discipline - or significant experience instead of education/qualifications.
  • Qualifications - Chartered Member of a recognised Professional Engineering Institution - highly desirable.
  • Demonstrable knowledge and understanding of technical and regulatory requirements related to civil engineering within an Airfield Environment.
  • Experience in engineering design or design management on large infrastructure projects or multi-year programmes of work
  • Experience of managing multiple, interfacing, concurrent design projects is highly desirable.
  • Good understanding of the importance of controlling and managing the project close out and handover process
  • Good understanding of Health and Safety & Environmental issues associated with the Construction industry.
  • Strong practical problem-solving skills.
  • Knowledge and understanding of the NEC suite of contracts is desirable
  • Personal resilience and the ability to manage ambiguity
