The Role
You'll be supporting senior engineers on the design and delivery of highways and infrastructure schemes-from early concept work through to detailed design.

- Supporting project coordination, client communication and design delivery
- Producing high-quality drawings and models using industry software
- Carrying out site visits and surveys
- Ensuring designs meet current standards, regulations and health & safety requirements
- Collaborating with internal engineering and technical teams
Software Exposure
You'll have the chance to work with leading industry tools such as AutoCAD, Civil 3D, MicroDrainage and PDS.
What We're Looking For
- Working knowledge of AutoCAD (and ideally other civil design software)
- Understanding of civil engineering principles, including highways and drainage design
- Strong communication skills and attention to detail
- Ability to work independently and as part of a team
- Full UK driving licence
- A proactive, organised and motivated approach
- Familiarity with UK design standards and CDM regulations
This consultancy also offers ongoing professional development, structured training, and support toward career progression.
