Coastal Engineer

Role & responsibilities

We are seeking an experienced Coastal Engineer to support the planning, design, and execution of coastal and maritime infrastructure projects. The role involves the preparation and review of engineering designs, technical specifications, construction methodologies, and marine studies related to ports, harbors, coastal protection works, dredging, and reclamation projects. The candidate will work closely with multidisciplinary teams to ensure technically sound, constructible, and cost-effective coastal engineering solutions.

• Preparation of drawings and specifications for coastal/marine components (breakwaters, groynes, reclamation, quay structures, revetments).
• Prepare technical method statements, work programmes, and resource plans for coastal and marine works.
• Coastal/maritime engineering designs, drawings, and calculations for constructability.
• Review and interpret physical and numerical model study reports for breakwaters, groynes, and other coastal structures, and assess their implications for design and construction.
• Review wave, tidal, current, littoral drift, and metocean data/reports for relevance to design validation and construction planning.
• Provide technical input across maritime and coastal design engineering disciplines including breakwaters, groynes, seawalls, revetments, jetties, quay/berthing structures.
• Evaluate scour protection, littoral drift management, and shoreline stabilization measures.
• Assess design inputs related to dredging, reclamation, and rock armour/geotextile systems

Preferred candidate profile

• Experience in port, harbor, offshore, waterfront, or coastal infrastructure projects.
• Exposure to EPC and Design-Build project environments.
• Understanding of marine construction methodologies and temporary works planning.
• Experience working with multidisciplinary engineering teams and contractors.
