What we’re looking for

  • 3–6 years as a field or project engineer on bridge or heavy civil work.
  • Degree in civil or structural engineering; EIT certification.

About the team

The Riverside Bridge team works from a site office on the river bank and includes engineers, carpenters, ironworkers and our own crane crews. Most of the team came from earlier Corwell bridges, and many will move together to the next one — this contract is a common way into our permanent infrastructure group.

“On a bridge, the river sets the schedule. Our engineers plan so we are always ready when the window opens.”
Priya Raman, VP, Design-Build & Engineering
