We are looking for an experienced Design Coordinator to lead the initial stage of design coordination on a footbridge infrastructure project.
This is a key pre-construction and Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) role. You will bridge the gap between design engineering, site methodology, and commercial pricing, shaping the construction strategy, managing technical risks, and coordinating multi-disciplinary teams to prepare a robust programme and price for the second phase of delivery.
If you have a strong background in civil engineering, bridge construction, heavy lifting, and traffic management coordination, this role offers an exceptional opportunity to drive value engineering on a high-profile regional infrastructure project.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and ECI Coordination: Lead the first stage of design coordination, ensuring constructability, buildability, and value engineering principles are integrated early.
- Risk and Value Management: Facilitate and maintain the project Risk and Value Engineering Registers, identifying technical constraints and cost-saving opportunities.
- Construction Methodology and Planning: Support the development of robust construction sequences, piling methodologies, and concrete pipe installation plans.
- Specialist Interfaces: Coordinate critical site requirements, including Traffic Management (TM) phasing, Lift Planning for structural components, and Utility Coordination/Diverting.
- Phase 2 Development: Collaborate closely with planners and estimators to build the comprehensive construction programme and pricing structure for the Phase 2 construction works.
- Stakeholder and Team Leadership: Lead and align diverse teams across client bodies, designers, specialist subcontractors, and third-party stakeholders.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
