Across the business we are building on a highly successful growth period. Our strategy within the Water division for 2025 and beyond is creating a number of new exciting opportunities. We partner with top water clients across the UK, working on some of the largest, most iconic water projects in the industry and promise to design with the community in mind by reducing environmental impacts and improving social impacts.

We enable the delivery of sustainable development and infrastructure projects that adapt to and mitigate the effects of climate change.

Our Civil Engineers work across the project lifecycle in asset planning/strategy, concept design, outline design and detailed design. We work in a variety of project areas such as clean water treatment and networks, wastewater treatment and networks, flooding, and urban drainage.

Finally, you will have experience working in a client‑facing role, leading client engagement and collaboration on a regular basis.
