A little more about your role…

The increasing threat of climate change has heightened the risk of flooding, impacting local communities. To strive and mitigate this risk, we are collaborating closely with our Local Government clients and stakeholders in South Wales.

We are seeking an experienced Drainage Engineer to join our team and address the growing demand for sustainable drainage, coal tip remediation and flood alleviation schemes.
