About the role

•  Step into a high‑impact role in Leeds where you’ll be a line manager, take ownership of a readymade pipeline of projects, and build your path to leadership.

• Real progression: this role is a trusted stepping stone into a leadership post.

You will own

• Coordination across disciplines and direct client engagement.
• Mentoring and development of junior staff and fostering a collaborative team culture.

• Practical, hands‑on technical ability and confidence with Civil 3D and drainage design tools.
• Chartered with a clear appetite for leadership.
• Someone who enjoys coaching others, building trust, and shaping how a team performs.
• A problem-solver who communicates clearly and makes pragmatic, well‑evidenced decisions.

What’s in it for you
