  • Support the preparation of drawings, specifications, schedules and design documentation.
  • Use industry-standard design and modelling software to develop and assess engineering solutions.
  • Contribute to flood risk assessments, drainage strategies and water management studies.
  • Work collaboratively with engineers, technicians, project managers, clients and external stakeholders.
  • Attend site visits, surveys and project meetings where required.
  • Help ensure designs comply with relevant standards, legislation, health and safety requirements and environmental objectives.
  • Maintain accurate project records and contribute to quality assurance and continuous improvement activities.

About you

You will ideally hold, or be working towards, a degree or higher qualification in civil engineering, water engineering, environmental engineering or a related discipline. Candidates with relevant placement, graduate or practical experience will be considered. You should have a genuine interest in water resources and infrastructure, together with strong analytical, communication and organisational skills.

Familiarity with hydraulic modelling, CAD, GIS or other technical software would be beneficial, although full training and professional development support will be provided. You will be proactive, eager to learn and able to work effectively both independently and as part of a team.
