As a Graduate (SuDS Solutions Engineer), you'll play a vital role in developing and delivering innovative SuDS and NbS schemes - from the early optioneering phase through to construction. Whether it's designing swales alongside highways, reimagining schoolyards with rain gardens, or enhancing public spaces for biodiversity, this is your chance to make a real difference.

Assist in scoping assessing, and delivering SuDS opportunities in urban, rural, and public realm settings
Work closely with stakeholders - from local authorities to community groups - to co-create solutions
Use GIS, spatial data, and topographic insights to inform sustainable design
Support projects from feasibility through to construction, with site visits and design input
Collaborate across the alliance - design, CAD, enabling, construction, ecology & more

Champion innovation and smarter ways of working in stormwater management

What we're looking for:

  • A degree in Civil or Environmental Engineering (2:1 minimum)
  • Confidence working in retrofit and constrained urban environments
  • An understanding of drainage design standards and health & safety principles
  • Strong communication skills to engage technical teams and external stakeholders
  • A collaborative mindset and passion for sustainable, green infrastructure
Bring your knowledge of drainage, love for green infrastructure, and confidence in working with others to a role where your voice matters - and your ideas become reality.

You'll be welcomed into a collaborative, values-led team committed to sustainable transformation.
