Permanent Senior Project Engineer (S&T)

Location: York

Hours: 37.5 hrs per week, hybrid working


We are excited to offer a fantastic opportunity for a Permanent Senior Project Engineer (S&T) to join our dynamic Eastern and Southern team at York.


In this role, you will be responsible for leading and managing multidisciplinary engineering activities and engineering teams across allocated projects, ensuring all works are delivered in accordance with contract specifications, quality requirements, and agreed programme timescales. The role involves overseeing the successful delivery of engineering works, supporting commercial and financial management activities through accurate reporting and forecasting, and developing strong collaborative relationships with project teams, clients, and key stakeholders to ensure safe, efficient, and successful project outcomes.

This role offers you the unique opportunity to work with one of NR main contractors on Signalling and Telecoms frameworks across the Eastern region.


What You’ll Do:

  • Manage the engineering activity on allocated projects including support for design reviews; communication and consultation with other functions (design, install, and test) over changes; and interfaces with other disciplines (including facilitating inter-disciplinary check meetings).
  • Act as Designated Project Engineer or Contractors Responsible Engineer as nominated.
  • Provide input to the appropriate Engineering Manager on the engineering resource required to deliver the project plan and provide engineering review of the method statements and risk assessments proposed for works where required.
  • Carry out and record briefings of technical updates to the project team, including sub-contractors.
  • Promote best practice and proactively identify to resource owners additional training requirements and development opportunities.
  • Ensure that materials are specified correctly, orders are placed to meet the project programme, and that an up-to-date material schedule is maintained for the project.
  • Produce and implement an inspection and surveillance regime, consistent with company and safety standards and project requirements.
  • Provide sufficient site support to the project team (Project Manager, site supervisors, resource providers, and sub-contractors) throughout the works to ensure that critical engineering decisions can be made in a timely manner and that issues arising can be dealt with to ensure compliance with a minimum of rework.

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.
