Senior Engineer

At T&S Surveying, our senior engineers bring deep technical insight and leadership to every project. Their contributions extend well beyond oversight — they act as trusted technical leads and client-facing partners.

Key Responsibilities ​

• Technical Leadership & Design Oversight​

  • Lead structural and layout design reviews, verifying that plans, drawings, and calculations comply with relevant UK codes and project specifications.

  • Mentor and review work of junior engineers and draftsmen, ensuring consistency, accuracy, and adherence to best practices.

  • Evaluate proposals for alternative construction methods or materials, advising clients and contractors on risk, feasibility, and cost implications.

• Site Management and Inspection

  • Supervise key on-site operations including RC frame casting, setting out, alignment checks, and formwork.

  • Carry out regular inspections and instrumental checks (e.g. total stations, laser levels) to ensure work meets tolerance limits and design intent — issuing corrective actions where necessary.

  • Oversee health & safety compliance and quality management procedures on site, ensuring construction practices meet legal and client standards.

• Quality Assurance & Control

  • Prepare and administer Inspection & Test Plans (ITPs), quality audit schedules, and conformance reports.

  • Document findings, non-conformances, and remedial measures, providing clear feedback and direction to contractors.

  • Lead final acceptance checks, snagging, and handover inspections to confirm that deliverables meet specification before client sign-off

• Resource Planning & Project Support

  • Allocate internal and subcontractor resources, optimizing work packages and scheduling to meet project milestones.

  • Provide guidance in procurement of specialist services (e.g. third-party testing, surveying) and integration into project workflows.

  • Deputise for site agents or project leads when required, ensuring continuity and consistency in project delivery.
