Harbours Engineering Superintendent/Clerk of Works
35 hours per week
Permanent
£38,528 - £42,561 / £21.11 - £23.32 per hour (including Distant Islands Allowance)
Orkney provides a beautiful setting in which to live and work and a wonderful opportunity to combine a fulfilling and challenging career with the best that the islands can offer in terms of lifestyle. Our vibrant and forward-thinking community is regularly voted the happiest and the best place to live in the UK. Our quality of life is second to none. With a rising population, excellent local services and a multitude of opportunities and facilities to cater for whatever your interests outside of work may be.
We are looking for a Harbours Engineering Superintendent/Clerk of Works with experience in the construction of civil engineering schemes preferably including piers structures to join our team working on projects which include piers, harbours, coastal protection and flood prevention works.
You will be involved in providing services for the maintenance and ongoing development of existing harbours civil infrastructure including linkspan and walkway assets across 29 ports and piers. Whilst this is an office based role you will also be required to spend time on site carrying out pier inspections, supervising contractors and liaising with suppliers, harbour users and the Harbour Authority.
You will be self motivated and organised, as well as practically minded with a flair for problem solving. Reporting to the Lead Engineer (Harbours and Structures) you will help ensure the ongoing maintenance and upkeep of lifeline infrastructure which can be exposed to some of the harshest environments in the country.
Whilst the Council is the smallest in the United Kingdom, its roles and responsibilities and the range of its infrastructure is broad, hence the engineering team draws enormous satisfaction from the diversity and intensity of its work.
You should have an SVQ level 4 or above in a relevant subject or equivalent qualifications or experience in construction and have experience in a site based supervisory role for civil construction works.
This post is subject to Basic Disclosure Scotland clearance.
You should hold a full and current UK driving license.
Prospective applicants are invited to discuss the post by contacting David Custer, Service Manager Engineering, e-mail david.custer@orkney.gov.uk or telephone 01856 873535.
Closing Date: Sunday 29 September 2024
Please note that interview expenses and relocation expenses are payable for this post.
