The Opportunity
A leading engineering consultancy is looking for an experienced Senior Civil Engineer to join its London team.


This is a specialist opportunity for an engineer with a strong background in building drainage, rather than a purely highways or infrastructure-focused Civil Engineer.


You’ll work on a varied portfolio of building projects, providing civil engineering solutions from early-stage design through to detailed design and delivery.

  The Role You’ll take a key role in the delivery of civil engineering schemes, with building drainage forming a core part of your workload.
Your responsibilities will include:
  • Designing above and below-ground building drainage systems

  • Designing foul, surface water and rainwater systems
  • Coordinating drainage designs with architectural, structural and MEP disciplines
  • Producing technical drawings, specifications and calculations
  • Supporting projects from concept through to construction
  • Liaising with clients, architects, contractors and other consultants
  • Reviewing technical work and supporting junior engineers
  • Taking responsibility for project deliverables and deadlines
  About You We’re looking for an established Senior Engineer who is already operating at Senior level, rather than someone looking for their first step up.
You should have:
  • 7+ years' relevant experience
  • Strong experience in building drainage design
  • Good working knowledge of Part H of the Building Regulations
  • Experience delivering civil engineering designs within a consultancy environment
  • Strong understanding of foul and surface water drainage
  • Experience coordinating designs within multidisciplinary building projects
  • Strong technical and communication skills
  • The ability to manage your own projects and deliverables
Chartered status is advantageous but not essential.
