As RINA continues to grow and develop its presence in Ireland, we are seeking an experienced Senior Project Manager to support our Rail and Infrastructure (Construction) Engineering Services team. This is a new, complex and multi-disciplinary role, which will be critical to the success of RINA’s expansion in the region.

The scope of work is extremely broad, incorporating both a commercial element (i.e. supporting Business Development & bids/tenders) and full cycle project delivery: you will be a key player in supporting the delivery of Ireland’s transport/rail infrastructure investment programme for the future. Typical projects will include Depot Assessments, Electrical Power Systems Design and Construction/Track design & delivery. You will also be accountable to manage additional projects for additional linear assets including roads and bridges.

This is an excellent opportunity for a driven professional to help shape RINA's strategic growth in Ireland, working closely with international teams and local stakeholders on high-profile infrastructure and mobility projects.

RINA is a hybrid working organisation, though this role will require the successful candidate to live within a commutable distance from Dublin.
