Title:  Project Manager (Bridges)

We are excited to offer a permanent opportunity for an accomplished Project/Construction Manager to join our Specialist Bridges Inspection and Maintenance (SBIM) team in Bristol.

You’ll play a pivotal role in overseeing the inspection and maintenance of three of the UK’s most iconic structures: the Severn Bridge, Prince of Wales Bridge, and Avonmouth Bridge. These landmark projects represent some of the most complex and high-profile engineering challenges in the sector, giving you the chance to shape the future of critical national infrastructure.

The Severn Bridge, a suspension bridge with a pioneering aerodynamic design, has been a vital route since 1966. The Prince of Wales Bridge, completed in 1996, is a cable-stayed structure spanning over three miles and forming a key connection between England and Wales. Avonmouth Bridge, with its distinctive blue arches, has supported Bristol's transport network since 1974.

In this role, you’ll blend hands-on project and construction management with technical excellence, ensuring the successful delivery of inspection and maintenance programmes on behalf of National Highways. You’ll lead by example, mentoring and developing your team, and fostering a culture of safety, collaboration, and continuous improvement. Your leadership will be instrumental in guiding site staff, setting high standards for safety and quality, and cultivating a positive working environment aligned with Amey’s values and Target Zero ethos.

The standard hours of work are 37.5 per week
