Project Design Engineer - Civil

Internal applicants are welcome.

Mott Mac Donald Bentley is a fully integrated design and build business combining the design expertise of Mott Mac Donald with the contracting experience of JN Bentley to deliver award winning projects.

In November 2023, MMB secured its first ever framework with South West Water, the company responsible for the water and wastewater services of 1.8 million customers in Cornwall, Devon, the Isles of Scilly and parts of Dorset and Somerset. The multi-million-pound AMP8 contract runs for five years to 2029 - with the potential for a further five-year extension - and sees us bring our track record of innovative project delivery to the south west of England for the very first time.

We’ve got a great opportunity to be innovative and creative in these new projects to deliver affordable solutions. We’re already on site supporting the completion of an existing project and we’re due to land new projects on site in 2025 as we continue to demonstrate to our client just what MMB is all about.
