Bedford or Southampton
£50,000 + £60,000 + bonuses
The role
An established, multidisciplinary consultancy is looking for an experienced Chartered Civil Engineer to take a leading role in shaping and growing its civil engineering service. With a strong project base across the UK and offices of around 25 people in both Bedford and Southampton, this is a collaborative, supportive environment where your input will directly influence how the team develops.

- Liaise with clients, contractors, planning and highway authorities, lead local flood authorities, water companies and the Environment Agency
- Support the Directors with fee proposals, bids and business development
- Mentor engineers and technicians, helping to build the team’s capability
The work spans commercial, residential, education, healthcare, industrial, public sector and development-led schemes so no two projects are the same.
About you
- Degree qualified in Civil Engineering or a related discipline
- Chartered Civil Engineer, ideally CEng MICE or equivalent, with UK consultancy experience
- Strong technical capability in highways, drainage, flood risk, SuDS and external works
- Experience preparing and reviewing flood risk, drainage and highway submissions for planning and technical approval

- Mobile phone where required, plus business mileage
- Support for continued professional development
- Clear progression towards Associate, Associate Director, technical lead or senior management roles
Why apply?
This is a senior role with real influence, direct access to the Directors and a genuine opportunity to build a service rather than simply join one. If you want variety, autonomy and a clear route to leadership, this is one to talk about.
