LOCATION: Flexible

Binnies, an RSK Group company, is looking for talented Civil Engineers to work within our newly formed Water Services team on a broad range of exciting water and wastewater water projects for major water utility clients.

We have opportunities for candidates recently Chartered or Incorporated, through to very experienced professionals looking for more challenging roles involving supervision of multi-discipline teams of engineers on multiple and/or large projects. If this describes you, we will make sure that you have opportunities to develop your skills and experience and progress your career further.

As a Civil Engineer you will be working in teams delivering a varied and challenging portfolio of work for clients including Anglian, Southern, Severn Trent and Thames. The variety of work ranges from strategic studies and large feasibility exercises (including developing proposals based around securing water resources for the 21st century - such as Thames Water’s £3.5 billion SESRO project), to study and design work for programmes of water and wastewater treatment and network infrastructure improvements of varying type, scale and complexity (such as Anglian’s £350 million Cambridge Waste Water Treatment Plant Relocation Project). You will have the opportunity to use your experience working on projects from concept, through to outline design, detailed design and construction.

Whilst we have offices in most regions of the country, we are also supportive of flexible and hybrid working and would be interested in receiving applications from locations around the UK.

Binnies treats each professional as an individual and will provide all relevant training, development and support so that you may further your engineering career. We are a diverse and energetic team, and you will play a key role in contributing to our team’s continuing growth and success.

About the Role

• undertaking strategic studies, feasibility work, outline and detailed designs for a wide variety of water utilities projects including water and wastewater treatment, conveyance and reservoir dam safety,
• producing calculations and reports to support those designs,
• working directly with clients to understand their needs and develop solutions to their problems,
• producing business cases and proposals to enable our clients to fund their projects,
• working with our construction partners to improve safety of designs and understand and improve the construction process,
• ensuring our designs take account of buildability, sustainability, H&S and environmental requirements.

About You

• Approaching or at Chartered or Incorporated Engineer status with the Institution of Civil Engineers or another relevant institution.
• Previous experience in the water sector is not essential, we would look for technical skills transferrable to a civil engineering role in the water sector.
• Desire to support and mentor more junior engineers towards achieving Chartered or Incorporated Engineer status.
• Excellent written and verbal communications skills.
• Self-motivated and effective team player.
• A drive to deliver sustainable solutions in the water and environment industries.
• Flexible working, including, if desired, a mixture of office and remote working, nine-day fortnights or other full time or part time working arrangements.
• Pension.
• Private Medical Healthcare.
• Life Assurance.
• Season Travel Ticket Loan.
• Group Income Protection.
