Engineer in Training, Water Infrastructure (Summer 2027)
Join a structured summer placement designed to give you practical experience in the planning, design and delivery of water infrastructure projects. Working alongside experienced engineers and technical specialists, you will contribute to projects that support safe, reliable and sustainable water services for communities.
This opportunity is suited to an enthusiastic undergraduate studying civil, environmental or water engineering, or a closely related discipline. You will gain exposure to the full project lifecycle, develop your technical skills and build an understanding of professional engineering practice in a collaborative environment.
Key responsibilities
- Assist with the design and assessment of water, wastewater, drainage and associated infrastructure.
- Support the preparation of calculations, technical drawings, specifications, reports and presentations.
- Collect, review and interpret engineering, environmental and site information.
- Undertake site visits, surveys and inspections, following all relevant health and safety procedures.
- Use engineering software and digital tools to support modelling, analysis and design development.
- Attend project meetings and communicate progress, findings and technical information clearly.
- Work with colleagues across different disciplines to help deliver high-quality, practical solutions.
About you
You will have a strong interest in water infrastructure and a willingness to learn from experienced professionals. You should be able to demonstrate sound analytical and problem-solving skills, attention to detail and the ability to manage competing priorities. Good written and verbal communication skills are essential, as is the confidence to ask questions and contribute ideas.
Applicants should be enrolled on a relevant degree programme and available for a full-time summer placement in 2027. Previous work experience is helpful but not essential; academic projects, practical coursework or volunteering that demonstrate your interest in engineering will also be considered.
What you can expect
You will receive structured support, regular feedback and opportunities to develop both technical and professional skills. The placement may involve office-based work, site activities and collaboration with project teams, providing a varied introduction to a career in water infrastructure engineering.
