As a Design Manager for Civil Works, you will be part of the Engineering Unit, responsible for the design development, design review and coordination of our metro and light rail projects. You will take a leading role in the development of the design for the new M5 metro line by ensuring effective collaboration among the different disciplines in the unit as well as in the interface with the other units in Metroselskabet's matrix organization.

Your role will entail coordinating the design of the civil works (including architecture, structural, geotechnical, mechanical and electrical works, surface areas), with the project team and consultants, to ensure the reference design sets the right requirements, complies with codes and standards and incorporates innovative ideas and "Safety in Design".

- Coordinate design interfaces with the Transportation Systems team
- Ensure implementation of lessons learnt from previous projects
- Overall responsible for adequacy and consistency of technical requirements
- Identification and facilitation of needed agreements with interfacing projects
- Manage and mitigate risks associated with technical aspects of the procurement process

About you

- You're structured, pragmatic, and solution-oriented.
- You are cooperative and a good communicator
- You can find the correct balance between the best technical/theoretical design solutions and the practical on site applicability, with focus on the project's contractual requirements
- You have a focus on safety and you are fascinated by innovation and sustainability in design, construction and operation.
- You are proactive and willing to contribute to implementing digital solutions across the company's projects relevant to your field of responsibility.

Skills and experience

- Bachelor of Civil/Structural Engineering with 8+ years' experience at senior level
- Experience working with metro/railway infrastructure, ideally large scale underground projects
- Knowledge of European and Danish standards and regulations
- Experience with the interdisciplinary design management
- Familiarity with working in a digital/BIM environment is an advantage.

What we offer

- Salary based on qualifications, attractive and flexible terms of employment
- A good working climate and good colleagues
