Civil Engineer

Civil Engineer (Drainage)
Location: Glasgow or Edinburgh
Salary: Up to £50,000 + excellent benefits + hybrid working

If you're a Civil Engineer who enjoys drainage design and wants to work on projects that genuinely make a difference, this could be a great next step.

I'm working with one of the UK's leading multidisciplinary engineering Consultancies, offering the chance to join a well-established Buildings & Places team delivering projects across defence, healthcare, education, blue-light services, residential and commercial developments. You'll have the opportunity to work on technically challenging schemes across the UK, with the backing of a global business that continues to invest heavily in its people, digital capabilities and sustainable design.

This is an ideal opportunity for someone with around 2-5 years' consultancy experience who is looking to broaden their project exposure rather than becoming pigeonholed into one sector or one type of work. The team works at pace, so you'll often find yourself involved in several projects at once, giving you plenty of variety and opportunities to develop your technical and client-facing skills.

The role will focus heavily on drainage design, so you'll ideally have experience producing drainage strategies, SuDS designs, levels and external works for a range of developments. Experience using Civil 3D alongside either InfoDrainage, Causeway Flow or MicroDrainage would be highly beneficial, although strong drainage knowledge is more important than ticking every software box.

You'll be joining a collaborative team where you'll work closely with senior Engineers and Project Managers while being given the opportunity to take ownership of your own projects as your experience grows. There is a genuine focus on professional development, with structured support towards Chartership if you're not already professionally qualified.

The Consultancy offers flexible hybrid working, with three days in the office and two from home, alongside an excellent benefits package including private healthcare, dental cover, a generous pension scheme, cycle-to-work scheme and flexible working arrangements.
To be considered you'll ideally have:

• Around 2-5 years' UK Civil Engineering Consultancy experience.
• Strong drainage design experience across development infrastructure projects.
• Experience with Civil 3D.
• Working knowledge of InfoDrainage, Causeway Flow or MicroDrainage.
• Good understanding of SuDS principles and current UK drainage standards.
• Excellent communication and report writing skills.
• The confidence to attend client meetings and develop into a project lead over time.

Due to the nature of some projects, applicants must be eligible to work on UK defence schemes. Unfortunately, visa sponsorship is not available for this position.

This is an excellent opportunity to join one of the UK's most respected engineering Consultancies, known for delivering some of the country's most high-profile infrastructure and building projects while maintaining a strong focus on innovation, digital engineering, sustainability and career development.
