Graduate Civil Engineer
Join to apply for the Graduate Civil Engineer role at TipTopJob
Warwick, UK
2 years experience
Are you a Graduate Civil Engineer with around two years of consultancy experience, ready to stop being a helper and start driving projects in the development infrastructure sector?
If you’re looking for a clear trajectory to becoming a Chartered Engineer, a well‑established engineering firm is offering a key role in their thriving Warwick office. This isn’t just about drawing plans; it’s about joining a supportive team that empowers its rising talent to take technical ownership and build a first‑class portfolio of residential, commercial, and industrial schemes. You’ll be working directly with an Associate who is dedicated to mentoring you through the entire ICE or IStructE Chartership process. This is the opportunity you need to truly transition from a graduate scheme into a fully‑fledged, design‑responsible engineer.
The Opportunity and Key Responsibilities
Your Primary Duties Will Include
* Detailed Design and Technical Approval: Producing final drawings and calculations required for adoption and technical sign‑off, focusing heavily on S278, S38 Highways, and S104 Drainage agreements.
* Advanced Modelling: Preparing and manipulating 3D ground models using software like Civil 3D for cut and fill analysis, volume calculations, and road profiling.
* Feasibility and Planning: Assisting with pre‑purchase feasibility studies, site appraisals, and resolving planning conditions related to drainage, highways, and flood risk.
* Stakeholder Liaison: Acting as a key point of contact for clients, architects, and external bodies, including the Environment Agency, Local Highway Authorities, and Water Companies.
* Professional Development: Proactively engaging in the company’s structured mentorship scheme with the ultimate goal of achieving Chartered Engineer status (ICE or IStructE).
* Attending site inspections, client meetings, and, on occasion, public inquiries, to represent the firm’s technical expertise.
What You Need to Bring
This role is perfectly suited for an ambitious engineer who thrives on responsibility and technical challenge.
Requirements
* Experience: Approximately two years of relevant post‑graduate experience, ideally gained within a UK civil engineering consultancy environment.
* Education: A degree in Civil Engineering or an equivalent qualification.
* Technical Proficiency: Essential proficiency in design software, specifically AutoCAD and Civil 3D (or a similar industry‑standard design suite).
* Competencies: Strong analytical, organisational, and problem‑solving skills, coupled with excellent verbal and written communication abilities.
Benefits and Culture
Why Apply?
This firm understands that their growth depends on their people. They offer a highly supportive, non‑corporate culture where engineers are genuinely encouraged to take ownership and innovate. You will be reporting to an Associate who operates an open‑door policy, providing consistent guidance rather than micromanagement.
The Perks
* Dedicated Route to Chartership: Structured ICE training agreement with dedicated time and resources for your Professional Review.
* Accelerated Career Growth: A clear pathway to Engineer and Senior Engineer grades, based on merit and technical competency, not just time served.
* Varied Projects: Exposure to a diverse mix of large‑scale residential, commercial, and specialist industrial schemes, ensuring your experience portfolio is broad and robust.
* Excellent Location: A modern, well‑connected, and convenient base in Warwick.
