Job description

Hydraulic Modeller - ( 250001L8 )

Description

Hydraulic Modeller

Communities are fundamental. Whether around the corner or across the globe, they provide a foundation, a sense of place and of belonging. That's why at Stantec, we always design with community in mind.

We care about the communities we serve—because they're our communities too. We're designers, engineers, scientists, and project managers, innovating together at the intersection of community, creativity, and client relationships. Balancing these priorities results in projects that advance the quality of life in communities across the globe.

About The Role

With substantial project wins and an extensive backlog of work, we have an opportunity for an experienced hydraulic modeller with a background in 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.

Stantec globally is known for our best practice in drainage and water modelling, and our New Zealand team unites this global best practice with local knowledge, to deliver high quality modelling and network planning projects for our clients.

Responsibilities

Based in either our Auckland or Wellington office and reporting to the Team Leader, your key responsibilities will include the following:

• Technical oversight of modelling projects delivered for clients such as Watercare, Auckland Council, Wellington Water and others, which will include:
• Rapid Flood Hazard Assessments
• Model Build and validation and/or calibration of networks
• Flood hazard mapping and system performance assessments
• Growth assessments, master plans and strategic studies
• Options analysis and development of solutions
• Flood risk and mitigation assessments
• Wastewater overflow and water quality assessments
• Mentorship and training of junior modelling staff based in various offices
• Providing technical input and support to the modelling team across Stantec New Zealand. This will include checking and reviewing modelling projects for clients
• Ensuring that QAQC procedures are followed
• Regular liaison with Stantec staff in other offices to share knowledge and best practice
  
  

You will be fluent with InfoWorks ICM, as well as GIS packages such as ArcGIS. Experience in other software is desirable but not essential. Experience with data analytics, coding and data visualisation also desirable. Experience in wastewater is essential; experience in stormwater is desirable. You will need to be progressive, have enthusiasm for innovative thinking and be willing to be actively involved in the wider Asia Pacific Stantec network planning community.
