A little more about your role…

We are looking for a Bridge Inspector at an Engineer or Senior Engineer grade to join our Bridges team in WSP Basingstoke office and lead bridge inspections for our local clients.

We deliver a broad range of exciting projects, providing new and varied opportunities with our existing clients and within the wider WSP business.

As a Bridge Inspector within our team you will undertake principal, general and inspections for assessment of bridges and a variety of other structures across the region. You will use your experience to provide technical input to projects, project briefs and proposals, always demonstrating compliance with Health, Safety, Welfare and CDM responsibilities.
