Job description

We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced Civil Engineer to lead our Civil Infrastructure team in Bristol. Over the last 15+ years in Bristol, we have built a reputation for delivery of high-quality development for a range of public and private sector clients and now we look forward to a period of further expansion ahead as we grow our presence in the South West and beyond.

We have evolved as a business over the past few years with significant growth in Planning and Urban Design through the acquisition of Barton Wilmore and more recently with the acquisition of Hydrock which has strengthened our technical offering in terms of buildings and sustainability. Success in public sector bidding including WECA, SCAPE and NHS SBS has evolved our workload to provide a balance between public and private sectors and we specialise in working across our sectors.

Our Bristol office is situated in the beautiful Queen Square, at the heart of the city centre—just a short walk away from the stunning harbourside and Temple Meads train station. Here, we have a friendly, close-knit team that work on a diverse range of projects from local community infrastructure schemes to large national infrastructure projects.

We are involved in various major development projects in Bristol and the surrounding area including Gravity, Filton Airfield and YTL Brabazon, Bedminster Green, Bristol Airport and North Somerset Council BSIP as well as projects for WECA Unitary Authorities—to name but a few. For more info on our Bristol Team & Projects, click Bristol (Queen Square), United Kingdom.

This role will give you the opportunity to work with a team of experienced and developing Civil Engineers and you will oversee all aspects of our projects from inception to completion. You will advise on the delivery of a wide range of regional and national projects in the development and infrastructure sectors, from strategic urban extensions, logistics parks, and urban regeneration projects.

Important to your success will be your contribution with the South West leadership team to identify the future direction for the group. You will work closely with other senior members of our team and the wider business, to deliver key and important projects for our clients. You will also mentor, guide and inspire more junior colleagues across our Civil Engineering team.

Your role will be varied and challenging, and there will be opportunities for you to develop and progress your own career. It is an exciting time to join Stantec.

About You

You will be degree qualified in civil engineering or similar and professionally qualified to either CEng or IEng. You will be focused on achieving coordinated solutions, a tactical thinker and effective at communicating with both internal and external parties (for example utility companies, drainage authorities, highway authorities).

Ideally, you will have expertise in infrastructure design to deliver multi-disciplinary projects for the entire lifecycle – from concept and planning through to detailed design and delivery; highway design and on-site supervision experience is preferable.

You will have a proven record of delivering projects closely with clients across technical disciplines and experience of mentoring and managing the workload of junior team members. Skills with Civils 3D, MicroDrainage and utility coordination are advantageous.

Your passion for civil engineering and experience of delivering quality solutions to clients is most crucial to your success in this role.

• Awards: Stantec were awarded the International Consulting Firm of the Year and Best place to work - Large Consulting Firms at the 2024 NCE awards as well as being consistently recognised in the top 10 Corporate Knights most sustainable companies in the world.
