The Role

We are recruiting a

Quality Assurance Technician

to support a major utilities and infrastructure programme in central London. The role involves supporting multi-utility diversion and enabling works, including water mains, sewer, gas, and high-voltage cable packages. This is a critical stage of preparation for future large-scale development in the area.

Working in a busy, highly constrained urban environment, you will deliver robust quality assurance activities--carrying out inspections, ensuring compliance with technical standards, supporting ITPs, and helping maintain a strong "right-first-time" culture across the project.

Key Responsibilities

Carry out regular site inspections in line with Inspection & Test Plans (ITPs), construction drawings, and technical specifications. Monitor workmanship, materials, test results and construction activities across utilities and civils works. Maintain accurate quality records including test certificates, as-built data, inspection sheets, NCRs and photographic evidence. Support the development, review and updating of ITPs, checklists, NCRs and other quality documentation. Report and close out non-conformances, assisting with corrective and preventive actions. Support the preparation of handover documentation including commissioning records, assurance packs and O&M information. Collaborate closely with engineers, supervisors and the wider delivery team to quickly resolve technical or quality issues. Promote continuous improvement and contribute to lessons-learned and quality reviews.

Requirements

Experience in a QA / QC role within civils, utilities, water, or heavy infrastructure. Strong understanding of quality assurance processes, ITPs, inspections and NCR management. Excellent attention to detail and high-level record-keeping/document control abilities. Comfortable using digital documentation systems (e.g., CDEs) and MS Office tools. Ability to work effectively in a high-density, complex urban environment. Strong communication skills with the ability to support engineering and site teams. Proactive, organised and committed to a "right-first-time" approach. Full UK driving licence preferred.

Why This Role

Opportunity to work on a large, technically challenging multi-utility programme in central London. Long-term contract with involvement across several phases of diversion and enabling works. Chance to influence quality systems and assurance processes on a complex project. Be part of a high-performing team delivering critical infrastructure improvements.
