Description
Role: Setting Out / Section Engineer (Heavy Civils)

Contract Duration: 6 Months Initial (Extension likely based on project milestones)

Project: Power Plant Construction – Middlesbrough

Rate: Inside IR35 - Umbrella

The Mission

We are looking for a precision-driven Section Engineer and a high-accuracy Setting Out Engineer to join a flagship power plant project. We need engineers who understand the complexity of heavy industrial foundations, massive reinforced concrete (RC) structures, and the tight tolerances of structural steelwork.

Key Responsibilities

  • Precision Setting Out: Use Leica/Trimble total stations and GPS to provide millimetre-accurate points for heavy RC foundations and steel bolt sets.
  • Technical Oversight: (Section Level) Manage sub-contractors, oversee quality control (QA), and ensure work aligns with the Master Installation Plan.
  • Heavy Civils Execution: Lead/Support the delivery of deep drainage, massive concrete pours, and complex structural frames.
  • Compliance & Safety: Maintain impeccable RFI logs and RAMS. On a power plant site, “safety first” isn’t a slogan; it’s the permit to work.
  • As-Builts: Produce accurate as-built surveys and quality handover packs.

Requirements:

  • Proven experience in Heavy Civils. If you haven’t worked on RC frames or major industrial steelwork, this won’t be the right fit.
  • Proficient with EDM/Total Stations (TS16/TS60) and AutoCAD for data extraction

Qualifications:

  • BEng/HND in Civil Engineering or equivalent.
  • CSCS Card (Gold/White/Black) is mandatory.
  • SMSTS or SSSTS (Preferred for Section Engineer level)
