Senior Development Engineer

Senior Development Engineer – Anwyl Homes Cheshire & North Wales

From humble beginnings as the local joiner, founded by our great grandparents over 90 years ago, we became an award-winning builder of quality homes, now building around 800 new homes per year.

The Anwyl Group — comprised of Anwyl Homes, Anwyl Land and our joinery workshop — believes buildings are more than just bricks and mortar. We build places for people, and our thoughtful approach doesn’t stop there. 

Despite our growth, we remain true to our family values — from community funds benefiting local schools, groups and charities, to supporting our colleagues with an ever-expanding range of programmes and initiatives, people remain at the heart of everything we do.

We are seeking to employ an experienced Senior Development Engineer for our fast-growing Homes Division who will support our Technical Team in all engineering aspects of site delivery. This will ensure that Section 38, 104, 278, roads and sewers (along with any other associated agreements) are designed, approved and constructed to appropriate adoption standards, on time and on budget, through to eventual adoption by the relevant Authority/Company.

The Development Engineer’s role will involve an active participation throughout the technical process of both new and existing developments.
