Assistant Design Engineer
What do you get if you cross an award winning, innovative, water company and over 300 dedicated team members? Our Design team of course!
Our ambitious and innovative projects (all 5000+ of them) help to combat the challenges of waste and water infrastructure, flooding and water quality. Being part of our inhouse designers means we can do the best by our customers and our water.
If you want to do more because you care, we’d love to talk to you. There really is something for everyone here.
Within our Capital Design and Delivery department, we are looking for a Assistant Design Engineer to join our Waste Infra design teams.
Are you an Assistant Design Engineer with prior experience in Waste Infrastructure? Do you have experience of data collection, feasibility, design, and the production of engineering drawings? Or are you a Civil Engineering graduate who is interested in building their career in a place where they can grow?
Well, if you are, read on.
EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW
This is a great opportunity to join our Waste Infra Design Team where you`ll work collaboratively with our wider Capital Delivery team. It’s a role which will give you variety, challenge, and plenty of scope for learning.
Best means balanced - innovation vs traditional; cost vs risk; what to build now vs what to build later. You’ll support senior design engineers in the feasibility and of design phase of projects producing key deliverables and also get stuck in with supporting the identification and evaluation/assessment of operational risks such as H&S, environmental, commissioning through both site visits and analysis of data.
The solutions you will offer will change as we look forward to the future, adapting to business and environmental needs.
To do this role at your best having hydraulic modelling experience would be great but not essential. You`ll also need to be confident to liaise with project stakeholders and be able to build relationships with a range of external stakeholders.
WHAT YOU’LL BRING TO THE ROLE
The right skills and experience are important. But if you have the right character, positivity, and a caring attitude we want to talk to you, too.
We welcome people from all walks of life and celebrate individuality as we know diverse minds, experiences and backgrounds help us to learn and better serve our communities. We want people who show up and get involve. Those who are ready to be part of something bigger and who want to make a difference because they care. Is that you?
WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU
Working here isn’t just a job. You can build a career at Severn Trent. We’ll reward you for it, too. We have a range of benefits that recognise great work, and award-winning training to help you reach your potential. And we’ll also help you play your part in looking after the environment and the communities where we live.
With that in mind, here are just some of our favourite's perks that you’ll get being part of the Seven Trent family:
- 28 days holiday + bank holidays (and the ability to buy/ sell up to 5 days per year)
- Annual bonus scheme (of up to £2,250 per annum based on company performance)
- Leading pension scheme – we will double your contribution (up to 15% when you contribute 7.5%)
