In the world of Highways, the big earners drive the complex projects forward. Project Managers and Highway Engineers are among the top contenders. With experience and expertise, salaries can stretch beyond £60,000. Snag a role as a Chartered Engineer and you might be looking at a bumper package.
Navigating Highways means mastering the tools and knowing the skills that bridge theory and practice. Think AutoCAD for design and planning, GIS for mapping, and MicroStation for sophisticated modelling. But don’t just get technical - communication is key, and leadership skills will pave your way to progress.
In Highways, experience and skills are partners in progress. Sure, fresh skills can open doors, but experience is the blueprint that builds credibility. Laying a foundation of practical knowledge gives you the street-smart savvy to leap ahead.
Certifications and qualifications are your calling cards. A Civil Engineering degree is a great start. Make it shine with a Chartered Engineer (CEng) status. For those with a focus on project management, a Project Management Professional (Prince2) certification can turbocharge your profile.
With five years under your belt, your earnings should stretch between £40,000 to £60,000. As expertise and responsibility grow, so too might the payslip. Highways professionals in niche or critical roles might see their salaries exceed expectations.
Fresh from the graduation line, entry-level highways graduates can expect to kick off with salaries ranging from £24,000 to £28,000. With a solid foundation and the drive to innovate, your career and salary will climb swiftly.
We know where to look. Our database, industry networks, job boards, personal referrals - plus four decades of building the right relationships across the Highways sector.
We listen first. We learn what you need. Then we use our networks to find the people who can do the job, check them thoroughly, and only send you the ones who are a proper fit.
CV checks, reference checks, tickets, certifications - whatever’s needed for the role. If you need additional compliance checks or right-to-work documentation, we handle that too.
If a placement doesn’t work out in the agreed timeframe, we’ll find you a replacement. Fast. No excuses.
Both. Short-term contractors for urgent site work, or permanent hires for growing your team long-term - we’ve got the network to deliver.
It’s all we do. We’ve been working with Highways and infrastructure businesses across the UK for over 40 years. We don’t just fill jobs. We help you build better teams.
