A little more about your role

Our Regulated Water Asset Design team serves the municipal water sector both in the UK and internationally. We hold long term framework agreements direct with water companies, including Severn Trent Water and Southwest Water. We also hold excellent relationships and trading agreements with blue chip contractors, including Costain and Galliford Try, for whom we deliver projects across the UK. We deliver a full range of design services across wastewater treatment, water treatment, sewerage and water network schemes.

With demand accelerating as part of AMP8, we are looking for Senior and Principal ICA Engineers (EICA) to join our growing team. This is an opportunity to take a leading role in the design and delivery of complex infrastructure projects, working across water, wastewater, and wider industrial sectors.

The Opportunity

You will be part of a multidisciplinary engineering team delivering ICA design across the full project lifecycle, from early feasibility through to commissioning and handover. Our projects are varied, technically challenging, and highly visible across the UK water sector.

In this role, you will:
  • Lead or contribute to ICA design across a range of infrastructure and non-infrastructure projects
  • Prepare and review key technical deliverables including specifications, calculations, reports, datasheets, schedules and control philosophies
  • Support development of user requirement specifications and system architectures
  • Contribute to feasibility studies, optioneering and detailed design
  • Support tender evaluations and bid activities
  • Participate in testing, commissioning and factory acceptance testing
  • Work closely with multidisciplinary teams to deliver integrated solutions
  • Build strong relationships with clients and project stakeholders
  • Support and mentor junior engineers where appropriate
What we are looking for

We are keen to speak to engineers with strong ICA or EICA design experience, ideally within the water sector or other process-led environments.

You will bring:

  • Experience delivering ICA design across multiple stages of the project lifecycle
  • Strong understanding of control systems, instrumentation and electrical integration
  • Experience preparing and reviewing detailed engineering deliverables
  • Knowledge of relevant standards including DSEAR and CDM
  • Experience supporting or leading commissioning, testing and FAT activities

    Strong client-facing and stakeholder engagement skills
  • A collaborative approach with the ability to work independently where required

For Principal level roles, we would also expect:

  • Experience leading technical delivery or managing work streams
  • Involvement in bids, proposals or work winning
  • Experience mentoring or developing others

You will ideally be degree qualified in electrical or control engineering, with professional registration or working towards it.

Why join WSP?
  • Work on major AMP8 programmes and nationally significant projects
  • Be part of a collaborative, multidisciplinary environment
  • Take on a visible role with real influence on delivery and clients
  • Access structured development including chartership support
  • Build a long-term career with a global consultancy
