About the Role
Join Ferrovial, a global leader in infrastructure, where innovation meets opportunity. As a Graduate Geotechnical Engineer, you will join the HS2 Track infrastructure project during its initial design phase, working within the design delivery team to focus on earthworks and foundation performance. You will assess ground-track interaction and coordinate geotechnical factors influencing railway track performance. This role offers the chance to work alongside experienced professionals on complex, high-profile transport infrastructure projects in the UK and Ireland.

The Ferrovial 2-year graduate development programme is designed to develop your personal, professional, and technical skills through a blended learning approach. You will work under the supervision of the Design Integration Lead and collaborate closely with site teams. Ferrovial values excellence, innovation, collaboration, integrity, and respect, and fosters an inclusive culture that supports career growth and global mobility.
