If youve seen a similar role before, thats because the client is building multiple depots for this major infrastructure scheme. This opportunity focuses on the Infrastructure Maintenance Depot (IMD) in Buckinghamshirea site that will be critical to the long-term maintenance and operation of the network.
You will play a key leadership role, forming a Tripartite Team alongside the Head of Commercial and Head of Delivery, overseeing the engineering development of a state-of-the-art IMD.
