Water Resources Engineer

We are seeking a skilled Water Resources Engineer to support the planning, design and delivery of sustainable water management solutions. This role will suit a technically capable professional who can apply sound engineering principles to complex projects and communicate effectively with clients, colleagues, regulators and stakeholders.

You will contribute to projects involving flood risk management, drainage, surface water, river restoration, water supply and environmental enhancement. Working as part of a multidisciplinary team, you will help develop practical solutions that meet technical, regulatory and environmental requirements while providing value for communities and the wider environment.

Key responsibilities

  • Undertake hydrological and hydraulic assessments using appropriate modelling tools and techniques.
  • Prepare feasibility studies, technical reports, calculations, drawings, specifications and risk assessments.
  • Support the design of flood alleviation, drainage, water management and natural flood management schemes.
  • Interpret survey data, rainfall records, catchment information and environmental constraints.
  • Assist with planning applications, environmental permits, consenting processes and stakeholder consultations.
  • Coordinate with engineers, ecologists, planners, contractors and external consultees throughout project delivery.
  • Contribute to site inspections, technical reviews, progress meetings and construction support activities.
  • Promote high standards of health and safety, quality assurance and environmental sustainability.

About you

You will have a degree or equivalent qualification in civil engineering, water engineering, environmental engineering, hydrology or a related discipline. Relevant professional experience in water resources, flood risk, drainage or hydraulic modelling is essential. Experience with industry-standard software such as Flood Modeller, TUFLOW, InfoWorks ICM, HEC-RAS or equivalent would be advantageous.

You should have strong analytical and problem-solving abilities, excellent written and verbal communication skills, and the confidence to manage tasks effectively while working to deadlines. A methodical approach, commercial awareness and a commitment to delivering technically robust, sustainable outcomes are important. Professional registration, or active progress towards it, would be welcomed.

A full driving licence may be required, together with flexibility to attend project sites and stakeholder meetings. In return, this opportunity offers varied work, professional development and the chance to contribute to resilient and sustainable water infrastructure.
