Join Our Team

Join our well-respected civil engineering consultancy, and you will have an outstanding career and gain a degree with ZERO student finance. We'll support you through your training to become a fully fledged civil engineer.

Most of your apprenticeship is spent working. You’ll learn on the job by getting hands-on experience.

What You'll Do at Work

• You will begin by learning CAD skills, which are the basis of all the construction designs we do.
• You will work alongside experienced technicians and engineers to develop your knowledge of building engineering.
• You will translate civil engineers’ and architects’ designs into technical drawings, taking into account elements such as environmental features and utilities, making decisions and recommendations as to how these are dealt with.
• You will communicate with clients, suppliers and colleagues as part of this process.
• As your skills develop, you will then start to be involved in engineering design, working towards designing independently.
• You will be supported all along with on-the-job training and mentoring from our team of experienced, industry-leading professionals at our office in Henley.

Where You'll Work

You can select which locations you want to apply for in your application on Find an apprenticeship.

This apprenticeship is available in these locations:

• 8 FRIDAY STREET, HENLEY ON THAMES, RG9 1AH
• St. Cloud Gate, St. Cloud Way, Maidenhead, SL6 8XD

Apprenticeships include time away from working for specialist training. You’ll study to gain professional knowledge and skills.

What You'll Learn

Course Contents

• Apply engineering principles to solve engineering problems: scientific, theoretical and technical principles.
• Apply civil engineering techniques, procedures and methods, and review and evaluate the results, including measuring and testing, designing, installing, commissioning, constructing, maintaining or operating civil engineering components and systems; consider how continuous improvement can contribute to improved performance.
• Employ mathematical, statistical and data interpretation tools, using analytical and computational methods, and apply an integrated or systems-based approach.
• Identify, interpret and compare information to select materials, components or parts used in civil engineering.
• Research, collect, select and evaluate technical literature and other sources of data and information to address, analyse and evaluate civil engineering problems.
• Produce civil engineering technical solutions in accordance with relevant industry standards, policies, codes of practice, regulations, and legislation.
• Select and apply computational and analytical techniques to model civil engineering problems, recognising the limitations of the techniques employed.
• Contribute to the design, development and implementation of civil engineering solutions, and evaluate their effectiveness in the context of the whole project life cycle.
• Manage and comply with statutory health, safety and welfare policies, procedures and regulation, and contribute to improvements in health, safety and welfare, within their own area of responsibility.
• Complete risk assessments to identify, evaluate, manage and mitigate risks.
• Apply principles of sustainable development and evaluate their effectiveness on the whole project lifecycle of civil engineering solutions.
• Manage engineering activities that contribute to sustainable development and the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs).
• Apply project management techniques, identifying, measuring, recording and reporting progress against civil engineering project performance criteria.
• Manage quality processes and contribute to quality improvements.
• Plans and manages resources, equipment and technology, to meet project requirements, specifications, costs and budgets and timescales, with an appreciation of statutory and commercial arrangements.
• Monitor and manage individual performance, and the input of others, recognising the need to adapt to, and communicate, changing demands.
• Comply with appropriate codes of practice and equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) requirements.
• Communicate in verbal and written contexts using appropriate methods for the audience. Use appropriate engineering terminology and conventions.
• Apply teamwork and collaboration principles.
• Apply ethical principles, identifying and analysing ethical concerns and making reasoned ethical choices.
• Plan, undertake and review their own professional competence, regularly updating, recording and reviewing their continuing professional development (CPD).
