About BakerHicks

BakerHicks is a leading design, engineering, and project delivery consultancy, delivering complex and high-value projects across the UK and Europe. We operate across a range of highly regulated sectors including infrastructure, life sciences, nuclear, defence, and industrial, providing multi-disciplinary expertise from concept through to delivery.

Our strength lies in our collaborative approach, technical excellence, and ability to mobilise the right expertise at pace to support our clients’ requirements.

Our Highways Team

Our Highways team supports a broad range of infrastructure and development projects, providing expertise in highway design, transportation planning, highways approvals, and road safety.

We work closely with clients, local authorities, and regulatory bodies to deliver compliant, efficient, and safe highways solutions, often as part of wider multi-disciplinary project teams. This includes supporting projects from early feasibility and planning stages through to detailed design, audit, and delivery.

The Opportunity

We are building a talent pool of experienced Highways Engineers and Road Safety Auditors to support upcoming and future project requirements across our UK portfolio.
