• Experience of GIS (e.g. ArcGIS or Mapinfo) and Infoworks ICM hydraulic modelling software is essential.
• A track record in mentoring team members less experienced in this field.
• Experience of managing projects and acting as technical discipline lead on urban drainage/sewage modelling projects is advantageous.
• Experience in managing modelling teams also from a commercial/financial perspective would be beneficial
• An understanding of the market and an interest in business development to help expanding and diversify our range of clients would be also welcomed.
• For the Principal role you must be chartered with an appropriate institute (eg ICE or CIWEM) or close to achieving chartered status.

What’s in it for you?

This is an exciting time to join Sweco and if you want to be part of a company who is small in all the best ways but large enough to provide a diverse and exciting workload, this job is for you

You will learn from experienced people who share a passion for working together with our clients to deliver technical excellence and as you develop be given opportunity to work more independently.

If you believe you have the skill set required, are keen to join a business with genuine opportunities for career progression, then we’d love to hear from you.
