SENIOR CIVIL ENGINEER

We are working with a leading multidisciplinary consultancy who are seeking a Senior Civil Engineer to join its established team in Cheltenham. This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced engineer to play a key role in the design and delivery of major infrastructure and development projects while progressing toward a future management position.

Working as part of collaborative project teams, the successful candidate will contribute to the design, coordination and technical delivery of civil engineering schemes across a diverse portfolio, including high-value developments. The role involves close collaboration with architects, building services engineers, project managers and cost consultants on multidisciplinary projects, as well as attending client and project meetings to present design solutions. Responsibilities will also include preparing Flood Risk Assessments, drainage strategies and providing pre-planning advice, alongside site visits to support technical assessments and resolve engineering challenges.

The ideal candidate will have proven experience in a similar role, ideally within a multidisciplinary consultancy environment, and will be a member of or working towards membership of the Institution of Civil Engineers or an equivalent professional body. Strong technical knowledge is essential, including drainage design, SuDS, highways design and earthworks analysis, along with experience designing foul and surface water drainage systems and minor road layouts. A solid understanding of Section 38 and 278 agreements under the Highways Act and Sections 104, 106 and 185 of the Water Industry Act is required. Candidates should also be confident using AutoCAD, particularly Autodesk Civil 3D, and have experience taking projects from concept through to completion, including calculations, drawings and specifications, while working in line with UK Building Regulations, British Standards and Local Authority requirements.

This role offers the chance to work on complex and high-profile developments in a supportive environment that encourages professional growth, technical excellence and long-term career progression.
