You’ll work within a close-knit team, supported by senior engineers, contributing to the delivery of civil engineering design across a wide range of water infrastructure projects.
Expect variety. Expect technical challenge. Expect to learn quickly.
The Work
Projects include:
* New and replacement potable water mains
* Foul drainage and CSO remediation schemes

* Experience in potable, surface, or foul water design and/or construction
* Civil Engineering degree (Masters advantageous)
* Working towards (or willing to work towards) professional qualification (ICE / CIWEM)
