The Opportunity
If you're a civil engineer with experience in drainage or SuDS, there's never been a better time to bring those skills into the water industry.
Stantec is hiring at all levels across our UK water offices - and the work is genuinely exciting. You'd be stepping into a sector that's tackling some of the biggest infrastructure challenges around: improving water quality, reducing flood risk, and building resilient systems that communities will rely on for decades to come. The kind of problems that keep you interested.
You'd be working alongside teams who are well-respected across the industry, on projects that have real impact - and with the scale and variety of work we deliver, there's serious room to grow.

About You
You'll be degree-qualified (or equivalent) in Civil Engineering, ideally Chartered or working towards it.
You'll have solid experience in drainage or SuDS design, and be comfortable taking projects from feasibility through to detailed design.
You're used to working across disciplines, happy supporting or leading other engineers, and you consistently deliver quality work on time and within budget.
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.
