The Opportunity
Ready to move beyond your graduate programme and lead the next wave of sustainable water solutions? You have built a strong foundation in process engineering and now it’s time to accelerate your career and apply your expertise to the world’s most urgent water challenges. At Stantec we’re not just designing treatment plants – we’re crafting a resilient future, from source to tap and drain to river.
The Role: Process Engineer
You will join our integrated national team, working on high‑impact projects that span the entire water cycle across the UK and Ireland. We are seeking ambitious Process Engineers who are ready to transition from foundational roles to project leadership and technical specialisation, with a focus on either cleanwater resilience or wastewater recovery and environmental protection.
* Cleanwater Journey: Help secure long‑term water supply through strategic resource options, design state‑of‑the‑art treatment facilities, and pioneer source‑to‑tap solutions for emerging contaminants such as PFAS.
* Wastewater Journey: Focus on achieving ambitious environmental goals by designing advanced treatment for nutrient removal, optimising asset performance, and implementing schemes that champion resource recovery (energy, heat, and materials).
Your Day‑to‑Day Impact
* Technical Excellence: Lead process design development, perform hydraulic analysis, develop mass balance models, and prepare technical reports and specifications.
* On‑Site Experience: Conduct site investigations, lead asset optimisation studies, and perform essential on‑site test work (jar testing, pilot plant trials).
* Client Collaboration: Work directly with UK water utility clients, helping to shape business plans and translate strategic needs into viable engineering solutions.
* Global Networking: Engage with our “one team” global community, sharing knowledge and applying international best practices to local challenges.
About You
* Demonstrable process engineering experience gained through a formal graduate programme (or equivalent) in the water sector, with exposure to either cleanwater or wastewater specialisms.
* A collaborative spirit and a passion for working as part of an integrated, supportive team.
* A drive to apply innovation and industry best practice to deliver high‑value, sustainable outcomes.
