Who are we looking for?

Experience:

Demonstrable involvement in, and understanding of, Construction Assurance Packages, LTRs, LTQRs, or similar progressive assurance models on major infrastructure projects is essential.

Relevant examples include HS2, Thames Tideway, and Crossrail. Experience in nuclear or defence sectors is not required but may be advantageous.

Qualifications: PCQI / MCQI membership is desirable, along with a relevant industry qualification such as HNC/HND, NVQ Level 4 or 5, or a degree in quality, engineering, or related fields. However, practical experience is equally valued. Applicants with a vocational background in Construction Quality fields are encouraged and will be given equal consideration.

Technical Competence: This should not be perceived as an entry-level administrative or document control role. The successful candidate is expected to confidently interpret technical drawings, ITPs, and specifications; actively engage with the supply chain and delivery teams; review and assess evidential document submissions; identify omissions and inconsistencies; and ensure client and project requirements are fully satisfied. This role may also suit Section or Site Engineers looking to transition into a more quality- or certification-focused career path.

Familiarity with platforms such as ASite, ProjectWise, Synchro, and other Bentley Systems is expected. Awareness of BIM processes and terminology is also desirable.

Communication & Literacy: A strong command of written and spoken English is essential, along with the ability to confidently interpret and use industry terminology. The role may also require sometimes improving the clarity and structure of draft submissions where necessary, with tactful understanding and professionalism.

Attention to Detail & Data Consistency: A clear appreciation for neatness, consistency, and structured Information Delivery is essential. The candidate should understand the necessity for and promote the importance of consistent data, taxonomy and controlled vocabulary to maintain traceability across all project applications, and to deliver accurate, reliable reporting.

Personality & Delivery Skills: A calm, patient, approachable, and methodical working style is needed, combined with the confidence & firmness to uphold and regularly reinforce quality standards and processes across complex, fast-paced delivery teams sometimes with challenging personalities.
