Job Description:

As a Senior or Principal Civil Engineer, you will have the opportunity to apply your experience across all project phases—from concept through detailed design and construction—and lead teams in delivering consultancy projects. You will primarily work within the Water Utilities team in the Anglian region.

Binnies values each professional as an individual and provides comprehensive training, development, and support to advance your engineering career. We are a diverse, energetic team, and you will be instrumental in our ongoing growth and success.

About the Role

You will typically lead civil engineering and multi-disciplinary teams, mentoring junior engineers to:

• Create outline and detailed designs for various water utilities projects,
• Prepare calculations and reports supporting these designs,
• Engage directly with clients to understand their needs and develop solutions,
• Develop business cases and proposals to secure project funding,
• Collaborate with construction partners to enhance safety, understand, and improve construction processes,
• Ensure designs consider buildability, sustainability, health & safety, and environmental standards.

About You

You should be a Chartered or Incorporated Engineer with the Institution of Civil Engineers or an equivalent body. Previous experience in the water sector is not mandatory; transferable technical skills relevant to civil engineering in water are essential.

You should also have a desire to mentor junior engineers towards achieving Chartered or Incorporated Engineer status, possess excellent communication skills, be self-motivated, and a team player. A commitment to delivering sustainable solutions within water and environmental industries is important.

Flexible working arrangements are available, including a mix of office and remote work, nine-day fortnights, or other full-time or part-time options.
