Wastewater Design Engineer / Project Engineer

Reference: 3zgojvvjl1stk10a544y

We are seeking a Wastewater Design Engineer / Project Engineer to support the delivery of high-quality wastewater and water infrastructure projects from concept through to completion. This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced engineer, or a technically strong professional ready to progress, to work on a varied portfolio of treatment, collection and associated civil engineering schemes. You will contribute to projects across the full lifecycle, collaborating with clients, contractors, suppliers and multidisciplinary teams to develop practical, compliant and cost-effective solutions.

Your responsibilities will include preparing and reviewing wastewater process and civil designs, calculations, specifications, drawings, schedules and technical reports. You will assist with feasibility studies, optioneering, design development, construction support and commissioning activities, ensuring that deliverables meet relevant standards, regulatory requirements and project objectives. The role will also involve coordinating design interfaces, managing technical risks, responding to site queries, reviewing contractor submissions and supporting project programmes, budgets and change control. You may also be required to attend site visits and meetings, monitor progress and provide technical guidance to less experienced colleagues.

Applicants should hold a degree or equivalent qualification in civil, environmental, chemical or process engineering, with demonstrable experience in wastewater, water or related infrastructure design and project delivery. Knowledge of treatment processes, hydraulic principles, drainage systems, CDM requirements and relevant UK standards would be advantageous. Experience using design and technical software, together with the ability to produce accurate documentation and communicate complex information clearly, is essential. We are looking for an organised and proactive professional who can manage competing priorities, work effectively both independently and within a team, and build positive relationships with stakeholders. Chartered or working towards chartered status is desirable, as is experience of delivering projects in a regulated utilities or consultancy environment.
