This role is ideal for someone with strong design skills who’s ready for a real challenge and wants to use their expertise to improve the world around them. As a Senior Engineer, you’ll take the lead on delivering innovative, high‑impact projects that make walking, wheeling and cycling safer and more enjoyable for communities across the UK. You’ll work at the forefront of sustainable transport design — pushing boundaries where guidance is limited, shaping solutions that genuinely transform places, and mentoring others as you go. If you're driven by creativity, responsibility and the desire to leave a positive legacy, this is a role where your skills will truly make a difference.
