THE OPPORTUNITY

We are looking for candidates with a background in Process engineering design on multi-disciplinary projects within the municipal and industrial water sectors. With our depth and breadth of skills, our team is currently involved in many exciting projects across the Energy, Water and Resources sectors. Whilst the team is based across the North, much of our work involves supporting projects across our global business integrating with teams in our offices.
As a senior engineer you are likely to have ability to work across the project life cycle from developing concept designs to outline and detailed designs, and skills working in or directing process engineering teams to ensure production of deliverables to established timelines and within budget.
You will co-ordinate the work of others and liaise with engineers of other disciplines, imparting your knowledge and experiences. You will be working in highly regulated sectors, working within a gated design and project delivery process. You will be involved in the development of mass & energy balances, process data sheets: control philosophies and commissioning plans. You will also be involved in the report writing and the development of fee proposals, feasibility studies of plant operating and capital costs. We would expect you to have a practical comprehension of how your designs will be implemented, and in digital approaches to solve our problems including the relevant current analysis and design software.
We operate an enviable graduate training scheme which is accredited by the IChemE and as a senior engineer you will be expected to join the mentoring programme and help to shape our future pipeline of process engineers.

In addition to your technical skills, we need people who have the following attributes

• Demonstrable experience of working collaboratively with colleagues, and with external collaborators
