Do you want to impact the strategy for sustainable infrastructure?
Can you contribute alongside our team of design experts? Are you looking to advance your career in Infrastructure? Then this is the place to apply your knowledge and curiosity to enable a better tomorrow.

If you enjoy solving technical challenges, working within multidisciplinary teams and developing your skills across a range of infrastructure projects, we'd love to hear from you.

We are growing our Infrastructure Design team and are seeking a Engineer (Highways and Drainage) to support the delivery of multidisciplinary infrastructure projects across the UK.

Our work spans highways, rail, water, energy and development infrastructure, and you’ll contribute to the design and coordination of integrated, sustainable and buildable solutions while developing your technical skills under the guidance of experienced engineers and project leaders.

You’ll work on projects from concept through to construction, designing and coordinating highways and drainage elements and collaborating with specialists from other disciplines to deliver practical, well-integrated outcomes.

In addition, as part of this role, you will initially be seconded to a major national infrastructure programme, providing you with valuable on-site experience within a dynamic and fast-paced project environment (HS2). This will form a key part of your role for at least the first 12 months, offering exposure to complex engineering challenges and collaborative, multidisciplinary working.

• Develop infrastructure designs across highways, rail, drainage, utilities, power distribution and related civil infrastructure disciplines from concept through to detailed design
• Prepare and review calculations, technical drawings, specifications, and design reports, ensuring high standards of quality and accuracy.
• Coordinate with engineers, technicians and other disciplines to develop integrated and buildable engineering solutions
• Support engagement with clients, local authorities, contractors and statutory undertakers.
• Support project managers in managing programme, resource and commercial objectives.
• Undertake site visits and provide construction-phase support where required.
• Apply relevant standards, regulations and CDM requirements, including undertaking and reviewing design risk assessments.
• Mentor, support and develop junior engineers and technicians through technical guidance, coaching and review of their work.
• Contribute to the continuous improvement of technical standards, digital delivery and engineering best practice across the team.

The first step to success in this role is that you are eager to collaborate with the people around you, whether they are colleagues, partners, or customers. Developing ties with others is something you do by acting respectfully and delivering on your promises. And you never get set in your ways but keep exploring new insights and ways to improve.

On top of that, you’ll:

• Have a degree in civil engineering(or equivalent)
• Be working towards Chartered Engineer (CEng), Incorporated Engineer (IEng), or equivalent.
• Have experience in at least one infrastructure discipline, such as highways, drainage, utilities, development infrastructure or power distribution, together with an understanding of how these disciplines interact within multidisciplinary projects.
• Have experience using industry-standard infrastructure design and modelling software such as Civil 3D, Info Drainage, Micro Drainage or equivalent tools.
• Be familiar with relevant industry standards,…
