About you

You will bring proven experience in major rail or infrastructure programmes, coupled with the ability to operate in complex, fastpaced delivery environments. Equally important is a collaborative mindset and a commitment to excellence - qualities that define how we partner with our clients and deliver lasting impact.

This is an opportunity to be part of something evolving - to help establish, shape, and grow a rail capability in a region where investment in integrated transport is accelerating at pace.

If you are motivated by delivering complex programmes, working with highperforming teams, and contributing to the development of worldclass infrastructure, we would welcome the opportunity to connect.
