* Heavy-duty pavement and surfacing works

The ideal candidate will have experience delivering civil or infrastructure projects within an operational environment: Ports / marine infrastructure, Airports or logistics hubs, Local authority capital works, Highways infrastructure, Utilities infrastructure, Rail infrastructure, Industrial estates or operational facilities

Key Skills, Knowledge and Experience:
