Your work ensures track systems meet all regulatory, operational and integration requirements.\n \nWhat You'll Be Doing\n\nSupport the coordination of technical assurance of track design, systems and layouts during design, construction and commissioning against client requirements and standards\nSupport the Lead Project Engineer in discharging NEC Supervisor and Principal Designer Representative duties under CDM 2015\nCoordinate the acceptance of track design, construction and commissioning to ensure compliance with technical, sponsor and regulatory requirements before handover to operations\nManage technical coordination and integration between track design contractors and other interfacing systems like signalling and OCS\nProvide technical guidance on track layout and design solutions, promoting best practice engineering techniques that drive consistency and efficiency\nWork with technical specialists to develop cost-balanced mitigation strategies on track design and layout issues\nManage interface tools and processes to ensure track systems integrate effectively with neighbouring contracts and systems\nSupport the management and communication of engineering issues and changes affecting track design and layout\nOversee identification and communication of technical risks and assumptions across track design activities\nSupport internal and external reporting on technical progress and risk management for track systems\nWhat We're Looking For\n \nYou're a Design Manager or senior engineer with substantial hands-on experience of track systems and layouts, typically at £100m scale projects. You have direct design and engineering experience with railway track infrastructure and understand how track layout and systems are designed, specified and built.\n \nYou understand how track systems interface with signalling and power systems and have managed the coordination between these disciplines. You understand CDM 2015 and have supported or undertaken Principal Designer and Designer duties on complex projects. You've worked with NEC contracts and understand supervision responsibilities. You've managed competing project and engineering demands with cost and schedule implications. You're comfortable with digital engineering tools and design management systems.\n\n You can identify technical risks in track design quickly and communicate them clearly to contractors and internal stakeholders. You're pragmatic about balancing design rigour with delivery timescales. You understand what it takes to deliver track systems safely and integrate them with other railway systems
