  • Support the capture and sharing of lessons learned and best practices.
  • Contribute to the development and continuous improvement of Digital Engineering processes and capabilities.

Interaction with Teams

This role will interact with Delivery, Engineering, Planning, Design Management, Technical, Commercial, and Procurement teams.

Suitable Degree Subjects

  • Geospatial Engineering
  • Surveying and Mapping
  • Built Environment

Location

National. Roles are anticipated across the UK. Flexibility is required as projects are based nationwide, which may involve travelling, staying away from home during the week, or relocating closer to a project site. This provides valuable experience on a variety of projects and broadens career opportunities.
