Stantec’s market-leading Environmental Services group supports clients in the environmental, geotechnical, and water sectors. We work with businesses and water companies across the UK and occasionally internationally.
You will join a friendly team of over 80 Hydrologists, Hydrogeologists, Water Resources Planners and Water Quality Scientists as part of our wider Water Environment Team. These team projects include enhancing the resilience of the public water supply and reducing the impact of wastewater treatment infrastructure on the water environment, with opportunities to contribute to flood risk modelling, sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) Modelling, and nature-based solutions.

As a Senior Hydrologist / Hydraulic Modeller, your project work will likely cover areas including:

• Flood hydrology and hydraulic modelling studies incorporating the impact of climate change.
• Completion of Flood Risk Assessments to support planning applications.
• Low flow assessments and water systems modelling to define the availability of water for supply during droughts.
• Design and test nature-based solutions to assist with flooding and water quality improvements.
• Climate change risk assessments of assets or portfolios of assets.

You will be expected to have responsibility for:

• Delivering water resource management, hydrological and hydraulic Modelling, drainage and flood mitigation, and climate impact assessment projects.
• Managing projects and maintaining client relationships.
• Assisting with winning work and the development of new business within the water environment team.
• Providing technical guidance, support and training to junior colleagues and assisting, where practicable, in the mentoring and development of others.

Although the remit is national, this role will ideally be based in either our Bristol and Cardiff offices or Leeds and Newcastle.
