·Confident cut-and-fill and mass-haul take-off

·Estimating software and strong Excel skills

Why this is a good opportunity:

·Outside IR35 - keep the full benefit of your rate
·£350-£500/day DOE - reflecting your specialism and seniority
·Hybrid working - office and home, structured around delivery
