Are you a motivated and committed Engineer seeking a dynamic role in one of the UK's fastest-growing cities? Look no further! We're actively seeking an experienced individual to join our Highway Development team in Peterborough.
At the heart of this growth city and unitary authority, you'll represent the Local Highway Authority, engaging in every aspect of highway development control.

What We're Looking For:
Analytical minds with creative problem-solving skills.
Demonstrable communication and interpersonal prowess.
Ability to thrive under pressure and use initiative.
Stellar teamwork capabilities.
Perks and Benefits:
• Flexible working hours scheme, allowing you to accrue an additional day leave per month.
• Hybrid working model, enabling you to work part of the week remotely.
• 25 days annual leave (growing to 30 after 5 years' service), plus bank holidays.
• Generous Local Government pension scheme.
• 2 days paid volunteering.
• Supportive and friendly Highways team dedicated to your development and learning.
