Description

The Authority is looking to secure the services of several suitably skilled, qualified and experienced Authorising Engineers across a range of Categories to act as Authorising Engineers (AE).

Each Contract will commence once the tender exercise has been completed, following the expiry of any current arrangements in place and as required within the next 12 months following ITT close date.
