Site Engineer

Location: Sittingbourne, Kent

We are looking for a precision-focused Site Engineer to join a flagship industrial development in Sittingbourne. This isn't just a "setting out" gig; we need someone who understands the nuances of heavy structural steel and the high-stakes accuracy required for complex foundations.

The Role

You will be the technical lead on-site, ensuring the transition from CAD drawings to physical steel is seamless. While your day-to-day involves standard engineering controls, we are specifically looking for expertise in floating bolt sets.

Key Responsibilities:

• Precision Setting Out: High-accuracy positioning for foundations, holding down bolts, and primary steelwork.
• Bolt Set Management: Expertly managing the installation of floating bolt sets to ensure zero-margin error before the frame arrives.
• Quality Assurance: Conducting rigorous pre-pour and post-pour checks, maintaining precise As-Built records.
• Technical Coordination: Liaising with the Project Manager and steel fabricators to resolve any RFI's or design clashes on the fly.

What We're Looking For

• Steel Frame Specialist: You've spent significant time on-site during the structural phase of industrial or commercial builds.
• The "Floating" Expert: You understand that floating bolt sets require a different level of patience and rigour than fixed templates.
• Tech Savvy: Proficient with Robotic Total Stations (Leica/Topcon) and AutoCAD.
• Qualified: Degree or HND in Civil Engineering or a related field, with a valid CSCS Card (White or Black preferred).
