Job Description

Mott MacDonald Bentley is a fully integrated design and build business combining the design expertise of Mott MacDonald with the contracting experience of JN Bentley to deliver award winning projects. Working for Mott MacDonald Bentley, you will work on major water and wastewater schemes throughout all phases of the project from feasibility through to construction. With an annual turnover surpassing £500 million, Mott Macdonald Bentley cements its position as a leader within the industry. The sustained, robust business performance creates an ideal environment for career growth.

We secured our first contract with Severn Trent at the beginning of AMP5 in 2009. Two AMPs later and Severn Trent has grown to become our largest client in terms of turnover. We’ve laid strong roots in the area, working from offices at Shifnal in the West Midlands, but delivering work across the Severn Trent patch. 420 colleagues are based in the region, in all roles from frontline construction to commercial management, operations to design. Our current AMP7 frameworks have been rolled over into AMP8 (to 2030), securing our place in the region for many years to come.

We are successfully working alongside companies such as; Yorkshire Water, Dŵr Cymru Welsh Water, Severn Trent Water, Anglian Water, United Utilities, Northumbrian Water, Thames Water, The Coal Authority, Cadent, Rolls Royce, Canals & Rivers Trust, Wessex Water and South West Water which has allowed us to progress as a leader in the construction and civil engineering sectors whilst developing and maintaining an excellent reputation with our clients.

As a Engineering Geologist within MMB you will be supported by an existing Geotechnical team distributed across multiple MMB framework contracts with some of the UK’s largest water companies. On occasion it may be necessary to support other framework teams across the wider MMBC business unit and as such may on occasion be required to travel out of area.

As an Engineering Geologist within MMB, you will:

• Undertake geotechnical desk studies, design of ground investigations, compilation of ground investigation tender documentation and contract administration.
• Support in the technical supervision of ground investigation fieldworks and liaison with ground investigation contractors.
• Interpretation and verification of ground investigation data including presentation of appropriate ground model, development of geotechnical design parameters and clear presentation of ground risks.
• Production of ground investigation reports and geotechnical design reports in accordance with EC7.
• Liaise with wider non specialist project team members (design and construction) to develop best-value engineering designs and clearly communicate identified project ground risks and suitable mitigation.
• Undertake various geotechnical analyses and design, produce calculation packages, input to works specifications and drawings for construction.

What you can offer:

• Degree in geotechnical engineering or engineering geology (MEng/MSc).
• Strong engineering geology and geotechnical design competencies, ideally in the water/wastewater sector.
• Experience in the field of ground engineering in the UK, with a full understanding of the geotechnical lifecycle of construction projects.
• Previous experience undertaking project desk studies, identifying key ground risks, planning and supervising ground investigations, developing ground models, undertaking ground interpretation and delivering elements of geotechnical design.
• Working towards or have achieved Chartership through a relevant Institution (ICE/IOM3/GeolSoc).

The role is nominally based in Shifnal within our office, operational site design offices across the region within an existing geotechnical team. Flexible and agile working means that the right balance between office, home and site working can be agreed.

We will support your development and actively encourage working towards professional qualification - you will have control of your own career path. This role will provide you with excellent long-term potential to advance your career in an innovative and collaborative environment.
