Working closely with engineers, project managers and other technical specialists, you will produce accurate, coordinated drawings and models that support projects from concept and planning through to detailed design, construction and completion.

Your responsibilities will include preparing and updating 2D and 3D CAD drawings, layouts, plans, profiles, sections and construction details for water resources projects. You will interpret engineering information, survey data and design calculations, apply relevant drafting standards, and incorporate mark-ups and technical feedback. The role will also involve maintaining drawing registers, document control and revision records; checking drawings for quality, accuracy and compliance; coordinating information between disciplines; and assisting with the preparation of specifications, schedules, reports and presentation material where required. You may also contribute to site investigations, surveys and construction support activities.

Applicants should have experience in a CAD design or civil engineering drafting role, preferably within water, drainage, flood risk, utilities or related infrastructure. Proficiency in AutoCAD is essential, and experience with Civil 3D, GIS, BIM or other engineering design software would be advantageous. You will need a sound understanding of technical drawing principles, civil engineering documentation and the ability to interpret design information accurately. Strong attention to detail, organisation and time management are important, along with the ability to manage multiple tasks and meet project deadlines. Clear communication and a collaborative approach are essential, as is a willingness to learn and develop technical skills. A relevant qualification in CAD, civil engineering, water resources or a related discipline is desirable, although equivalent practical experience will also be considered.
