Project Engineer Precontracts

16/10/2026

We're looking for a Civil Engineer who wants more than a traditional project delivery role. Joining our national pre-contracts team in project engineer role, you’ll be working alongside estimators, bid managers and technical specialists to develop winning tender submissions for major civil infrastructure projects. Once a project is secured, you'll transition to site and become part of the delivery team, helping bring the project to life from the ground up.

This unique role offers exposure to the full project lifecycle, giving you invaluable insight into what it takes to win work, manage risk, develop innovative construction methodologies, and ultimately deliver successful outcomes for our clients. The role combines responsibilities across work winning and ultimately project delivery.

About the Role

During the tender phase, you will:

  • Review tender documentation, specifications and client requirements
  • Develop construction methodologies, staging and delivery strategies
  • Assist with quantities, subcontractor pricing and vendor analysis
  • Support design reviews and identify opportunities for innovation and value engineering
  • Contribute to tender submissions, methodologies, programmes and planning documentation
  • Work closely with estimators, bid managers and operational teams to develop competitive bids

Following project award, you will transition into a site-based engineering role where you will:

  • Coordinate engineering and construction activities on major civil infrastructure projects
  • Manage subcontractors, suppliers and project stakeholders
  • Monitor progress, productivity, budgets and forecasts
  • Support project planning, programming and reporting
  • Ensure works are delivered safely, efficiently and in accordance with project specifications
  • Assist in the successful delivery of project objectives from commencement through to completion

About You

We're looking for someone who has exposure to both project delivery and pre-contracts environments, or a Project Engineer who is eager to broaden their experience into tendering and work winning.

You'll bring:

  • A Bachelor of Engineering (Civil) or equivalent
  • Experience working on civil infrastructure construction projects
  • Exposure to either pre-contracts, estimating, tendering or project delivery activities, with an interest in developing capability across both
  • Strong commercial awareness and understanding of construction methodologies
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills
  • The ability to analyse technical information and solve complex problems
  • Experience with planning, programming, budgets and forecasting
  • A collaborative approach and a genuine desire to learn

This role offers a rare opportunity to see both sides of the business. You'll gain firsthand experience in how major infrastructure projects are identified, pursued and secured, before stepping onto site to help deliver the outcome.

If you've ever wanted to understand what happens before a project starts, while continuing to build your site delivery career, this could be the perfect next step.

Warning to applicants about false job offers and fraudulent proposals

The VINCI group wishes to warn applicants about the online publication of false job offers for contracts abroad in the name of VINCI group companies. The authors of these offers fraudulently use the corporate names, brands and logos of VINCI group companies to deceive applicants, inducing them to reveal personal information and to pay money to obtain alleged services. Under no circumstances do VINCI group companies ask for candidates' bank details or any payment of money as part of their recruitment process. We therefore strongly recommend that applicants check the authenticity of job offers before responding to them.
