Job role
Engineer
Contract Type
Full time

The role is in the Highway Network Management & Co-ordination (HNMC) Team, which is part of Operational Services. The HNMC Team has a key role in the co-ordination and monitoring of current and planned road and street works on the highway. Investment in Kirklees by the Council, utility companies and other organisations is increasing significantly. Kirklees Council is expanding the coverage of its permit scheme for road and street works, and we are looking to recruit two additional Co-ordinators to join the HNMC Team.

The Co-ordinator role involves assessing and responding to permit applications from works promoters, including from utility companies and internal works teams, with a clear focus on minimising delay and disruption arising from works. It will also involve meetings with works promoters and contractors regarding traffic management and reinstatement options, programme planning, reporting on performance and progress, responding to service requests received, and dealing with the co-ordination of non-works activities affecting the highway such as events, builders’ skips and scaffolding.

You will need IT skills to support working with packages such as Word and Excel and specific IT applications such as Mayrise Street Works. Travel is essential in the role. You will need to have a full and valid driving licence, and a willingness to undertake and pass a Kirklees Council driving test if required. You will need to hold a full and valid NRASWA Supervisor accreditation.

You will have knowledge of street works regulations and codes of practice, hold a NRASWA Supervisor qualification, etc., have the ability to apply knowledge practically, and have the skills to work and communicate effectively with works and activity promoters, contractors, and other key external and internal stakeholders.
