Asset Planning Engineer

As a Asset Planning Engineer, you'll be responsible for delivering a leading asset planning service to the business. This will be a diverse role where you'll be involved in planning capital investment schemes across our water abstraction, water treatment, and pumping assets.

You will gather and evaluate information to prioritise and develop projects through the concept and definition stages. You will work collaboratively with our asset management and operational teams to optimise the investment portfolio, delivering best value for our customers whilst balancing cost, risk, and performance.

Key Skills Required

  • An analytical mind and an inquisitive approach, plus one or more of the following:
  • Water industry experience
  • Asset Planning/Asset Management experience
  • Strong analytical and written communication skills
  • Knowledge of water industry assets, equipment, and processes (technical, pumps, water treatment)
  • Operational risk management experience
  • Degree in engineering discipline preferred: Chemical, Process, Mechanical, Civil, Electrical, general

This is an exciting time to join our Asset Planning team as we look to increase our current capability and competency. You can gain experience in areas such as Asset Management, Water Treatment Processes, the project lifecycle, and the Risk and Value process. We also offer career path development and progression, role-based training including the Institute of Asset Management Certificate, and potential for membership and accreditation with a professional body.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
