Group Lead - Infra & Heavy Civil

·Operational Scale and P&L Ownership: Own Infrastructure BU performance, including gross margins, billable utilisation, project profitability, capacity planning, resource forecasting, productivity, and scalable deployment of civil modellers, structural detailers, engineers, coordinators, and project managers.

·Global Client Delivery and Escalation: Act as the senior delivery and technical interface for enterprise infrastructure clients across North America markets; manage scope, milestones, change orders, RFIs, escalations, SLA adherence, and client satisfaction.

·Multidisciplinary Delivery Leadership: Orchestrate end-to-end delivery across highways, bridges, drainage, rail alignments, utilities, grading, site civil, and airport airside and landside works, ensuring seamless coordination between geometry, structures, surfaces, profiles, utilities, and documentation packages.

·Technical Quality and Design Gatekeeping: Lead technical reviews for horizontal and vertical alignments, corridor models, terrain surfaces, bridge structural detailing, rebar and pre-stressing details, hydraulic drainage simulations, rail profiles, utility coordination, and airport grading plans.

·International Codes and Standards Compliance: Ensure all deliverables comply with applicable standards such as AASHTO, FHWA, UK DMRB, Eurocodes, Austroads, FAA airport design guidance, ISO 9001, ISO 19650, and client-specific CAD, BIM, and documentation protocols.

·Digital Delivery Standardisation: Standardise SOPs, templates, libraries, quality checklists, parametric modelling workflows, automation practices, and BIM coordination methods across Civil 3D, Bentley OpenRoads Designer, MicroStation, OpenBridge, Revit Structure, InfraWorks, HEC-RAS, StormCAD, and related tools.

·Quality, Risk and Governance: Establish robust QA/QC gates, delivery dashboards, peer-review systems, issue logs, risk reviews, lessons-learned repositories, and first-time-right quality controls for major infrastructure programmes.

·Talent Development and Capability Building: Partner with Talent Acquisition and internal leaders to hire, retain, mentor, and upskill engineering talent through structured workshops in grading, cut-and-fill analysis, corridor modelling, bridge detailing, drainage modelling, utility coordination, BIM coordination, and dynamic CAD automation.

·Commercial and Strategic Growth: Support account expansion, proposal inputs, delivery solutioning, offshore operating models, capability presentations, and strategic growth initiatives for global infrastructure clients.

·M.E. or M.Tech in Civil, Structural, Transportation, or Infrastructure Engineering.

·15+ years of heavy civil engineering delivery and design experience, including significant exposure to highways, bridges, drainage, rail, aviation, utilities, grading, and multidisciplinary BIM/model coordination.

·At least 10+ years of leadership experience managing offshore, distributed, or large-scale engineering teams for global infrastructure clients.

·Strong hands-on command of civil design and modelling workflows, with expert-level familiarity across Autodesk Civil 3D, Bentley OpenRoads, MicroStation, Revit Structure, OpenBridge, InfraWorks, HEC-RAS, StormCAD, or similar platforms.

·Deep knowledge of international standards, including AASHTO, FHWA, UK DMRB, Eurocodes, Austroads, FAA airport design guidance, ISO 9001, ISO 19650, and client-specific digital delivery requirements.

·Proven ability to manage P&L, productivity metrics, utilisation targets, resource planning, quality governance, stakeholder communication, technical reviews, and enterprise client relationships.

·Strategic, metrics-driven, technically rigorous leader with strong executive communication, cross-cultural management capability, problem-solving orientation, and a passion for developing high-performing civil engineering teams.
