Setting Out Engineer

Basingstoke / Surrounding Area | Permanent | Home-Based

We're recruiting a Setting Out Engineer to join a well-established, family-run civil engineering contractor delivering a range of roads, drainage, infrastructure and housing projects across the South.

This is a long-term opportunity with a business that values trust, autonomy and loyalty. In fact, the last two people in the role retired with the company.

The work covers everything from roads and drainage through to plot works and 278 works up to DPC, giving you exposure to a varied and interesting project portfolio.

• Permanent position with long-term stability

• Home-based role with travel to sites as required

• Family-run business with a supportive culture

• Trusted to manage your own workload without being micromanaged

• Modern surveying technology and equipment

• Company kit supplied, although candidates with their own equipment are welcome to use it

• Opportunity to work across a diverse range of civil engineering and housing projects

We're open to engineers across the experience spectrum, from developing engineers looking to take the next step through to seasoned professionals.

What's most important is finding someone the business can rely on:

• Setting out experience within civil engineering, roads, drainage, infrastructure or housing developments

• Comfortable working independently and managing your own workload

• Keen to embrace modern technology and surveying methods

• Strong attention to detail and pride in delivering work accurately

• Willingness to travel across project locations as required

This role would suit someone looking for more freedom, variety and longevity than a typical contractor environment can offer.

If you're looking for a company where you're trusted to get on with the job, backed by a strong reputation and a steady pipeline of work, we'd love to hear from you.
