Core Duties:

• Develop a deep understanding of structural and geotechnical behavior, including:
  • Movements of viaducts and bridges (temperature, long-term, transient effects)
  • Settlement and differential settlement impacts on track systems
  • Expansion joints, bearings, and articulation arrangements
  • Load transfer mechanisms between the slab track and supporting structures
• Ensure that the slab track solution is well-coordinated, buildable, and aligned with project requirements.
• Liaise with consultants, subcontractors, and internal teams to resolve technical challenges.
• Facilitate close collaboration with the Designer to deliver optimized, timely, and client-compliant designs.
• Attend weekly meetings with the construction team, design team, and client.
• Chair or attend meetings related to track design issues during design and construction, providing technical mitigation support.
• Assist in identifying changes, risks, and opportunities, promoting efficiencies and cost savings.
• Coordinate with commercial, planning, design delivery teams, and designers to optimize designs.
• Support construction teams in managing track-related issues.
• Provide technical input for contract administration and timely close-out of track slab issues.
• Work closely with the instrumentation and monitoring team, reviewing reports and certificates.
• Support progressive technical assurance during design, construction, and handover phases.

Key Responsibilities Revisited (Additional Focus Areas)

• Coordinate slab track and civil structure interfaces, ensuring clear communication between disciplines.
• Review structural movements, tolerances, and interface details, identifying risks or constraints for slab track integration.
• Assist designers in ensuring compatibility between track elements and civil structures at critical interfaces.
• Participate in design reviews, coordination meetings, and engineering workshops.
• Prepare and maintain Interface Control Documents (ICDs) and interface registers.
• Track interface issues and actions, facilitating timely resolutions with stakeholders.
• Draft meeting minutes, coordination notes, and technical summaries to ensure clarity.
• Contribute to buildability, safety, quality, and efficiency improvements at interfaces.
• Support risk identification and reporting related to structure-track integration.
• Align interface activities with program requirements, escalating issues as necessary.
• Promote health, safety, and environmental awareness in all project aspects.
• Travel to London and Birmingham for meetings with internal teams, partners, and clients as required.

Who Are We Looking For?

We seek a degree-qualified professional with expertise in civil engineering or a related discipline. Ideal candidates will have:

• Career experience in civil engineering, structures, geotechnics, or infrastructure.
• Desirable: CEng (Railway Engineer Institute or ICE) or progress toward relevancy.
• Relevant expertise in rail track design, modeling, or construction support on large-scale projects.
• Understanding of structural behavior, including movements and tolerances in bridges/viaducts.
• Ability to read, interpret engineering drawings, and manage interface details.
• Interest in design coordination, interface management, and multidisciplinary collaboration.
• Familiarity with interface processes (e.g., ICDs, risk registers, change management).
• Knowledge or willingness to learn standards (e.g., Eurocodes, UK standards, HS2 standards).
• Collaborative and strong communication skills.
• Organized, detail-oriented, with ability to track multiple interfaces and actions.
• Basic BIM/3D design tool awareness.
• Professional, proactive approach when working with designers, partners, and stakeholders.
