What we're looking for

  • Technical training in Civil Engineering, Public Works Engineering (ITOP), or Technical Architecture: Your academic background will provide you with the necessary foundations to engage appropriately with all parties involved in the works.

  • A career of approximately 10 years in the sector, with solid experience focused on the management or execution of road projects. This background will allow you to anticipate the usual unforeseen circumstances of the terrain and make quick decisions under pressure.

  • Fluent command of Autocad, Presto, and Windows Project: You will use them daily for the control of plans, the economic certifications of the works, and the millimeter-precise monitoring of the work schedule.

  • Proficiency in structural calculation software and HEC-RAS: These will be your technical allies to verify the behavior of the hydraulic infrastructures attached to the roads (drainage, channeling) and to ensure that the adopted solutions are fully safe.

  • Residency in Figueres or surroundings: The project is rooted in the area, and we want you to enjoy good work-life balance by minimizing daily commuting times.

The role

Are you passionate about seeing how your decisions transform into real infrastructure that connects people? In the Civil Works division of OCA Global , we don't just manage projects on paper; we ensure that the infrastructure forming the backbone of our territory is safer, more sustainable, and more efficient for society. If you are looking for a challenge where your technical expertise has a direct impact on-site and where you enjoy the autonomy necessary to lead, this is your place.

What you'll do

In your day-to-day, you will not be limited to filling out reports; you will be the engine driving the success of the works in Figueres and its surroundings:

  • Lead, supervise, and direct the on-site execution of the road project to ensure rigorous compliance with delivery deadlines, budgeted costs, and the highest standards of quality and road safety, achieving the ability to see the real impact of your daily work.

  • Proactively coordinate and manage subcontractors and suppliers, establishing relationships of mutual trust so that the workflow advances at the right pace and with total synchronization.

  • Perform technical planning and detailed economic monitoring of the works through the control of certifications, budgets, and deviation analysis, using economic management tools to optimize project resources.

  • Validate technical solutions in the field facing structural or hydraulic challenges, using specialized software to resolve incidents with agility and providing expert judgment when the terrain requires design modifications.

  • Act as the reference technical interlocutor for the Project Management and clients, guaranteeing fluid, decisive, and transparent communication that consolidates the credibility of our division in the area.

How you'll work

Your well-being is an absolute priority for us. Therefore, you will enjoy a fundamental pillar of balance and time for yourself with the following schedule:

  • Monday to Friday with full-time employment (from 8:30 to 18:00 h). This is a flexible schedule depending on the needs of the worksite.

  • Additionally, December 24th and 31st are completely free days so that you can enjoy them with your loved ones.

If you feel like taking a professional leap, contributing your experience to a long-standing road project, and working in a team that will support you from day one, we want to meet you. Let's talk!
