Mane Contract Services are currently recruiting for an experienced Civil Engineering Manager to join a leading international engineering contractor and take ownership of civil engineering across its growing Power & Renewables business.
This is a senior leadership opportunity for a civil engineering professional who wants to influence strategy, design, project delivery and team development, rather than simply manage individual packages.
With a substantial portfolio of work extending 5+ years, this role offers long-term stability, career development and the opportunity to work on major infrastructure and energy projects.
The Opportunity:
As Civil Engineering Manager, you will provide strategic and technical leadership across the civil engineering function, supporting projects from tender and pre-construction through to construction and handover.
You'll work closely with engineering, electrical, commercial and project teams to develop practical, commercially sound solutions while ensuring consistent standards and quality across the business.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead and develop civil engineering strategy, processes and standards across the Power & Renewables business
- Build, manage and mentor high-performing civil engineering teams
- Lead civil engineering input into tenders and pre-construction activities
- Oversee preliminary designs covering earthworks, drainage, access roads and structures
- Assess risks relating to ground conditions, flooding, utilities and environmental factors
- Manage design consultants and ensure design outputs meet project and client requirements
- Provide technical oversight across multiple projects from tender through to completion
- Coordinate civil, electrical, commercial and project delivery teams
- Provide strategic oversight during construction, supporting teams with technical issues, changes and risk management
- Lead site audits and ensure compliance, quality and engineering standards are maintained
- Oversee as-built documentation, H&S files and project close-out
- Drive lessons learned and continuous improvement across the business
What We're Looking For:
We're looking to speak with experienced Civil Engineering Managers and senior civil professionals with a background in infrastructure, utilities, energy or Power & Renewables.
You'll ideally have:
- Strong civil engineering experience within infrastructure, utilities, energy or construction
- Proven leadership experience managing teams and influencing project delivery
- Experience across the full project lifecycle, from tender through to handover
- Strong understanding of civil design, construction and engineering standards
- Experience managing design consultants and technical stakeholders
- Commercial awareness and an understanding of how design decisions affect cost and programme
- Strong client, contractor and stakeholder management skills
- Ability to operate confidently at both strategic and technical levels
- Excellent communication, problem-solving and decision-making skills
Salary & Benefits:
- Competitive salary and comprehensive package
- Long-term portfolio of work extending 5+ years
- Opportunity to work on major Power & Renewables projects
- Senior leadership position with genuine influence
- Career development and progression opportunities
- Opportunity to build and develop a high-performing engineering team
