Arup’s purpose, shared values and collaborative approach have set us apart for 80 years, guiding how we shape a better world.
Our 350 strong Mid West Energy, Water and Resources (EWR) group supports major clients across the UK, delivering civil engineering solutions across water and wastewater treatment, non infrastructure works, network upgrades and AMP8 programmes. As demand grows, we are strengthening our civil non infrastructure capabilities across the region.
The Opportunity
We are looking for an experienced Civil Engineer with a focus on project delivery and leadership in wastewater and stormwater management, and a strong interest in river systems and environmental improvement from source to sea. The role sits within a multidisciplinary team delivering innovative, low-carbon and nature-based solutions at both local and catchment scale.
You will work on a wide range of nationally and globally significant projects such as https://www.arup.com/projects/greener-grangetown/ or https://www.arup.com/projects/welsh-river-and-coastal-regeneration/ , including wastewater and stormwater catchment studies (WINEP/NEP, SOAF), flood risk and river health analysis, civil structures, wastewater and stormwater treatment, and environmental flood mitigation schemes.
The team delivers across advisory, strategic planning, detailed design, construction supervision, and asset health support. You will also contribute to research, digital tools, and innovative engineering approaches in collaboration with colleagues across disciplines.
This role offers the opportunity to shape your career path, whether specialising or gaining broader experience, within a supportive environment that actively invests in professional development and chartership.
