Assistant Resident Engineer
MIDROC Consulting Architects and Engineers PLCAbout This Role
This is a site-based supervisory position within MIDROC Consulting Architects and Engineers, the design and consultancy arm of the MIDROC Investment Group. The assistant resident engineer acts as the client's eyes on the ground, overseeing contractors, verifying work quality, and keeping the paper trail that protects the project from disputes. It suits an engineer who is comfortable spending most of the week on active construction sites rather than in an office.
What the Requirements Say About This Role
The stated seniority level and the experience profile in the listing do not align, which suggests the employer may be flexible on the exact years for the right candidate but firm on demonstrated site supervision exposure. The emphasis on contract administration and technical review signals they need someone who can read drawings critically, catch deviations early, and document them properly, not just someone who can stand on a site and observe. The contract-based terms also hint that this role is tied to specific project cycles, so they are likely looking for someone who can be productive quickly without a long ramp-up.
How to Approach This Application
Lead with concrete project examples — the type of structures supervised, your role in inspections, and how you handled a contractor deviation or quality issue. Since two positions are open, mention your availability and willingness to work on a contract basis early in your cover letter. If your total experience is below the stated figure but you have solid supervision exposure, apply anyway and make that site experience the centrepiece of your application.
Who This Role Suits
Best suited to an early-career civil engineer who already has real construction site exposure and wants to build a consultancy-side track record with a large, established group. Competition is likely moderate, and the contract structure may deter some applicants, which works in your favour if you are available.
