We are seeking a Senior Water Resources Engineer to lead the planning, design, and delivery of complex water resources projects across a diverse range of public and private sector developments. This role will provide technical leadership on hydrology, hydraulics, flood risk management, drainage, stormwater, water supply, and infrastructure resilience projects. You will work closely with multidisciplinary teams, clients, regulators, contractors, and community stakeholders to develop practical, sustainable, and cost-effective solutions.

Key responsibilities will include managing project scopes, programmes, budgets, and technical deliverables; preparing and reviewing hydrological and hydraulic assessments; developing flood studies, drainage strategies, water management plans, and infrastructure designs; and applying industry-standard modelling tools and engineering methodologies. You will oversee investigations, interpret technical data, prepare reports and specifications, and provide expert advice throughout the project lifecycle. The role will also involve mentoring engineers and technical staff, reviewing designs and calculations, supporting bids and proposals, and contributing to continuous improvement in technical standards and project delivery.

Applicants should hold a degree in civil or environmental engineering, water resources engineering, or a related discipline, along with substantial professional experience in water resources or hydraulic engineering. Professional registration or chartered status, or progress toward it, is highly desirable. Strong experience with hydrologic and hydraulic modelling software, flood risk assessments, stormwater design, and relevant regulatory requirements is expected. You will bring excellent analytical, communication, and report-writing skills, together with the ability to manage competing priorities and build effective relationships with clients and colleagues. A proactive approach, sound commercial awareness, and a commitment to quality, safety, sustainability, and ethical engineering practice are essential.
