Senior Engineer – Highways / Earthworks (Contract)


Location: Lincoln | Duration: 6‑Month Contract | Rate: £55 per hour | Working Pattern: Site‑Based (5 Days)


We are currently supporting a live highways road scheme in Lincoln and are seeking a Senior Engineer to support construction delivery on site.


This is a hands‑on, site‑based role, suited to an experienced engineer with a strong design background who is comfortable overseeing and challenging works during construction.
