Civil Engineers - North / North West & Yorkshire

Joining Arup

Arup’s purpose, shared values and collaborative approach has set us apart for over 75 years, guiding how we shape a better world.

We work with clients to plan, build, integrate and maintain a wide variety of civil infrastructure, from bridges to reservoirs, from metro tunnels to off-shore wind farms. Our technical teams address every aspect of civil engineering design, working in close collaboration with the full breadth of Arup’s other design and engineering disciplines.

The Opportunity

We are looking for a number of Civil Engineers to join our Energy Water and Resources team of civil engineers, apprentices, and technicians across our offices in the North/ North-West of England.

As a result of considerable growth we have roles for engineers of all grades across each of our offices in the North of the UK. These roles will include connections across all our offices in the region, the wider UK and globally. We are involved in overseas projects as part of a wide and diverse global organisation and are therefore able to share our broad expertise in both directions between our numerous worldwide offices.

Our growing team of dedicated engineers, technicians and scientists are delivering civil engineering projects for site development, water industry, flood management, energy and transport clients. We are looking for individuals across all grades from individuals developing their initial skills through to senior and principal engineers who are leading projects and teams.

Our civil engineers can be generalists with experience across multiple technical skills, individuals with a particular specialism or people with great integration and collaboration behaviours. We are looking to recruit engineers and technicians with skills ranging across utilities, drainage design/modelling, pavement, civil structural, water treatment, flood management, site development, external works, coordination, energy transmission, coastal management etc. Peers who have experience working directly with D&B contractors would be of particular interest. Depending on experience we would expect candidates will be either working towards or already hold a professional qualification.

Our client base is wide including Water companies, Energy suppliers, Local Authorities, Developers, D&B contractors, Government Agencies, Transport System Owner and Operators. We work across all stages of projects from initial concept all the way through to construction support. We are currently seeing considerable growth in detailed/construction design.
