Role Overview
My industry-leading tier 1 main contractor client is seeking a Site Engineer to work on a high-profile roof refurbishment project at a major Birmingham train station.
You will oversee day-to-day engineering control, ensuring dimensional accuracy and quality assurance during the deconstruction and replacement of secondary steelwork and fabric cladding.

Willingness to work nights is essential due to project requirements.
Responsibilities
- Establish, maintain, and verify site control points on the roof structure
- Conduct precise setting-out, dimensional checks, and laser scanning surveys for secondary steelwork and cladding brackets
- Interpret engineering drawings, digital models, and specs, swiftly resolving design clashes or discrepancies with the Section Engineer
- Complete day-to-day Inspection and Test Plans (ITPs), meticulously recording:
- Check sheets
- Torque logs for steel bolts
- Weld inspections
- Produce and manage As-Built surveys and records for seamless Network Rail handover
- Immediately report any engineering non-conformances (NCRs) to management
- Support the Section Engineer in monitoring specialist steel and façade subcontractors, ensuring strict compliance with approved Method Statements (RAMS)
- Generate daily site diaries, material take-offs, and progress reports
