About the role
Stantec seeks an experienced consultant to join our busy Flood and Water Management team. This position would ideally be based from our Reading office, but we would also consider other locations for the right candidate. This is a key role within our team with ample scope to grow and develop your personal profile and learn new skills along the way.
We work with an excellent range of Public and Private clients across the UK. Our client-focused approach has enhanced our reputation as a leading infrastructure and development consultancy in the UK. Our success means we are actively recruiting to support our growing water management groups. Our work covers a wide range of sectors and technical disciplines; you will engage in projects ranging from policy and modelling-based assessments to the detailed design of flood management and river restoration schemes. Our primary interest is in someone who can support our existing river restoration and development projects.
Ideally, you will have a background in geomorphology or flood risk. Your main tasks will include providing support to our Water Management Team and Project Directors, developing your role as a principal consultant, and leading the whole project lifecycle from initial enquiry through to successful delivery. You will manage other team members and liaise with the design teams and client representatives. You will also provide support to our eco-services sector, delivering fluvial audits, river restoration and geomorphology assessments, and will support on WFD Assessments, EIA, flood risk assessments, drainage designs, and option reporting for all project types and scales.
Our projects range from river restoration schemes, habitat creation, flood risk assessments, and flood alleviation for public and private sector clients. You will have an interest in enhancing the water environment, flood risk, and river engineering projects with a client-focused service. We offer a competitive benefits package, a strong culture of learning and development, and a great environment to work in. We can tailor a role to suit your experience and aspirations and offer a mix of home and office working to support work-life balance. We work as a national technical team and there is an opportunity to work with a wide range of clients and fellow professionals across the UK.
