This may include experience in areas such as: Infrastructure and civil engineering design Drainage and SuDS Highways and development infrastructure Multi-disciplinary project delivery Private sector development projects and public sector works Hands-on design capability is beneficial, but not essential, as the emphasis is on leadership, oversight, and technical governance.
