Our Coastal & Rivers team is continually in demand worldwide for projects involving coastal and river management and the enhancement of the environment. Our broad knowledge and experience enable us to find practical solutions for the most complex of problems, for example flood risk management against the backdrop of climate change and coastal erosion
You will work within a team where you will be expected to take on responsibility at an early stage. Your involvement in and contribution to the project team which may include other divisions within the company will be actively encouraged. You may also be involved directly with individual clients with whom you are expected to promote a positive working relationship and be expected to plan your own time and assist the team leader and project managers in determining the resource requirements for your work.
Responsibilities may include:
Playing a positive role within the Team and Advice Group
Designing coastal and rivers erosion and flooding solutions, including appropriate calculations
Drafting and checking drawings produced by Technicians

Undertaking various tasks including contributing to the production of surveys, reports, studies and construction schemes within the field of coastal and rivers engineering
Numerical modelling, design, checking of other work, inspection, surveying (at clients sites) and preparation of material (figures, tables and text) for reports.
In terms of training our competency-based training and development scheme means that you have a clear route to plan your current and future career aspirations. Our structured training schemes provide routes through to Chartership for ICE, CIWEM, IMechE, IStructE and other relevant institutions. We also recognise the importance of personal development and can offer courses to suit every need.
You will be a recent graduate with enthusiasm about working in this field who possesses a Masters degree in Civil Engineering or in a similar field, although Bachelor Degrees will also be considered.
If you have experienced vacation work or a ‘sandwich’ placement within a Consultancy this would be advantageous but is not essential.
