The project:
To manage design and/or construction activities for allocated projects. Managing so that appropriate engineering standards are used in relation to design and/or construction on allocated projects within the national programme with compliance to the requirements of the guide to Railway Investment Projects (GRIP), relevant legislation, group and company standards, and network rail procedures.

Our values shape the way we consult and define the people we want to join us on our journey, they are:
• Safety first – Going home safe and well
• Client focus – Deliver on our promise
• Integrity – Always do the right thing
• Create opportunity – For our people to excel

• Implementing network rail systems and procedures to maintain a cost effective, high quality, safe and environmentally responsible approach to design, construction, commissioning and other technical activities on relevant projects, compliant with all relevant legislation. Liaise with regulators and others as appropriate.
• Monitoring specific projects managed by infrastructure investment so that they are engineered to the standards and specification of network rail, allocated design and construction contracts include reference to and are compliant with appropriate railway group and network rail company standards, formal specifications and procedures.
• Managing all engineering activities so that they result in schemes that are affordable and meet programme requirements in a safe and environmentally responsible manner for time, cost and quality.
• Maintaining the use of relevant techniques and procedures of quantified and qualitative risk assessment and HAZOP analysis to allocated projects and manage the environmental aspects of allocated projects in accordance with network rail’s  environmental policy.
• Monitoring design and specialist consultants and contractors.
• Providing project management advice in respect of all construction activities, including testing and commissioning and site supervision. Manage so that the design and/or construction elements of relevant projects meet the requirements of current legislation, including construction design management (CDM) regulations.
• Monitoring so that the contractor’s design/construction/specialists personnel are competent.
• Undertaking reviews of design and/or construction activities. Arranging audits of contractors monitoring safety, environment and quality of design, construction, testing and commissioning and management systems is adequate.
• Carrying out the duties of designated project engineer (DPE) for specific projects.
• Identifying and sharing best practice across the various project teams.

You’ll need to have:
• Successful relevant experience in engineering disciplines, ideally with involvement in construction and design projects across multi discipline areas along with technical qualifications to HNC/HND or equivalent GNVQ level.
• Digitally savvy, can build lasting client relationships and lead strong, motivated teams.
• Have a construction or project management background and be hungry to grow your career and enjoy the opportunities Mace has to offer.
