About the Role
What if you could shape a career as unique as you? At WSP, you can always find opportunities to grow and do what matters to you. Make the most of our global reach to discover new challenges and chances to work with diverse, talented individuals who will help you expand your horizons.

As an Engineer within the Asset Consultancy Team, you will work collaboratively alongside other WSP Engineers, Hydraulic Modellers, and Asset Planners to deliver potable water infrastructure projects. Your responsibilities will include ensuring accurate and efficient delivery of high-profile projects for internal and external clients, primarily UK utilities, as well as private developers and local authorities.

You will exercise independent engineering judgement and have the opportunity to provide innovative solutions to engineering challenges. This role enables you to further develop and apply your technical skills, contributing to both technical quality and service efficiency.

A typical week may include (but is not limited to): delivery of feasibility studies and options development for potable water infrastructure and non-infrastructure projects; hydraulic modelling including network model builds, upgrades, calibration, operational response, and mains flushing programming; asset risk prioritisation modelling; water quality modelling, assessment of options, and development of solutions; growth studies and network capacity checks; close collaboration with clients to ensure projects meet expectations in quality, time, and budget; undertaking continuing professional development under guidance; and assisting junior staff.

You will operate in accordance with WSP’s corporate health and safety, environmental, and quality standards as well as client requirements, maintaining project-related health and safety strategies including risk assessments.

Successful candidates will join a respected and ambitious company with excellent career prospects, working as part of an award-winning water team within a larger UK team of over 600 professionals, supported by our Global Water Team. Our expanding portfolio includes clients such as Severn Trent Water, Northern Ireland Water, Welsh Water, Southern Water, Wessex Water, United Utilities, Uisce Éireann, and Scottish Water Horizons.

Imagine a better future for you and a better future for us all. Work on landmark projects around the world and embrace opportunities to make an even bigger impact in the communities you care about. What if you could do the best work of your life and create a legacy for yourself? With us, you can. Apply today.

Experience
A relevant degree and progression towards qualification with an applicable Professional Institution is required. You will have a solid background in Clean Water infrastructure, including a good understanding of Asset Management and/or Design within the Water Industry. Proven experience delivering potable water projects (modelling, design, and/or asset management) to a high standard is essential.

About you
You will have good presentation, written, and verbal communication skills in English and the ability to work on your own initiative on technical matters while providing support to others within the team. Good IT skills are paramount, particularly in MS Office, GIS, and network modelling software packages such as InfoWorks WS Pro, Synergi, and Epanet, along with the ability to quickly learn new software. This role involves client-facing activities, so professionalism and excellent communication skills are a must. We are looking to fill multiple roles and can consider a range of skills and experience to collectively strengthen our team’s capacity and technical and applied project management capabilities.
