Principal Delivery Engineer

Closing Date:

Most people think of a Principal Delivery Engineer as someone who is digging up the grounds, doing manual labor all day – but this role is far from it. This is a crucial role within our Network Expansion division, and you’ll be the main point of contact for our grounds work partners, supervising and coordinating a range of build works and projects on site.

You will be a health & safety advocate, providing expertise in design, technical specifications, and best practice for ground works. As well as being a trusted, subject matter expert - you’ll mediate between our Partners, Planning and Activation Field Engineers on a wide range of matters. You will be the point of escalation for any contractual dispute or regulation non-compliance.
