If you want to do more because you care, we want you on our team.
Are you a Assistant Design Engineer with prior experience in Wastewater Infrastructure? Do you have experience of data collection, optioneering, design, and the production of engineering drawings?
This is a great opportunity to join our Waste Infra Design Team where you’ll help design wastewater infrastructure improvement schemes. It’s a role that will give you variety, challenge, and plenty of scope for learning.
You’ll support senior design engineers in the optioneering and design phase of projects, producing key deliverables, and get involved with identifying and evaluating operational risks such as H&S, environmental, and commissioning through both site visits and data analysis. The solutions you will offer will evolve as we look to the future, adapting to business and environmental needs. You’ll also need to be confident in liaising with project stakeholders and building relationships with a range of external stakeholders.
Key Responsibilities
* Agree design assessment and design completion milestones with Project Managers.
* Support the Project Manager to define the right contractual outputs to ensure successful project delivery.
* Ensure that data is collected and validated to define the problem.
* Appraise and optioneer conceptual designs to create innovative and efficient TOTEX solutions, ensuring design standards and assurance processes are followed.
* Undertake proactive risk management and keep risk registers owned and maintained throughout the design feasibility and design processes.
* Play a key part in fulfilling the role of Principal Designer under CDM regulations.
What You’ll Bring To The Role
Experience providing civil designs and specifications, preferably for wastewater infrastructure projects. Working to standards, codes and design manuals is required. The right skills and experience are important, but if you have the right character, positivity, and a caring attitude, we want to talk to you.
We welcome people from all walks of life and celebrate individuality; diverse minds, experiences and backgrounds help us learn and better serve our communities. We want people who show up and get involved, and who want to make a difference because they care. Is that you?
