Description

Stantec is a global leader in sustainable engineering, architecture, and environmental consulting. The diverse perspectives of our partners and interested parties drive us to think beyond what’s previously been done on critical issues like climate change, digital transformation, and future-proofing our cities and infrastructure. We are designers, engineers, scientists, project managers, and strategic advisors. We innovate at the intersection of community, creativity, and client relationships to advance communities everywhere, so that together we can redefine what’s possible.

About The Role

Stantec’s Water team in New Zealand has an impressive portfolio of successful projects that benefit communities nationwide. Our water focus covers the management of drinking water, wastewater, stormwater, and groundwater as a collective resource. Finding solutions to our water challenges is crucial, and our diverse local network of over 360 water specialists collaborates and innovates to ensure the best outcomes are achieved.

With substantial project wins and an extensive backlog of work, we have an opportunity for an experienced hydraulic modeller with a background in water supply/ stormwater/wastewater to join the team. This is an exciting opportunity to help further build our national modelling team, which unites our 3 Waters modelling capabilities. You will have the opportunity to work on significant projects both nationally and internationally, and with a diverse range of project teams.
