We have an exciting opportunity for a Quality Assurance Business Partner to join our Transport Infrastructure HSEQ Team directly supporting our Highways business. We are seeking someone who shares our passion for enabling and delivering true operational excellence.
At Amey we know that road and rail networks are much more than tarmac and ballast – they offer a wealth of opportunities from physical journeys to see friends and family, to go to work or to enjoy time away. The work of our teams makes sure people get to where they need to be, on-time, every time. We understand the emotional impact poor transport can have on lives, so we make sure communities are connected to vital services and leave a legacy for future generations. Our personal journeys through life are often the most challenging, so we offer everyone a chance to grow and develop, breaking down barriers for all. We recognise everyone’s journey in life is different. With our knowledge of infrastructure, we take personal responsibility to create infrastructure solutions which benefit local people and places, enabling the country to thrive one community at a time.
What makes this role unique?
In this role, the Quality Assurance Business Partner is responsible for making sure that systems, processes, and operations comply with organisational objectives, regulatory standards, and industry best practices. The ideal candidate will leverage their extensive industry experience, knowledge, and skills to support key stakeholders across the business in developing effective solutions that enable our business to meet our priorities. The role will report directly to the Head of Governance and Assurance for Transport Infrastructure.
Key responsibilities for this role include:
- Developing and implementing governance frameworks - establishing clear structures, policies and procedures to ensure accountability and transparency.
- Assurance activities – ensuring robust arrangements are implemented in areas such as audits, inspections, reviews and other assurance activities to verify systems and processes are working effectively and meeting required standards.
- Risk management – working with others to identify, assess, and mitigate potential risks including compliance, operational, and strategic risks.
- Continuous improvement - identifying opportunities to enhance all aspects of our management systems based on performance data and industry best practices.
- Stakeholder engagement - collaborating with various stakeholders to promote a culture of risk awareness, compliance and embracing organisation changes enabling smooth adoption.
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.
