Our consultancy team is looking for individuals with site delivery experience for positions ranging from Section Engineer, Senior Site Engineer to Agent. We seek candidates who have worked on frameworks and major infrastructure projects to join our expanding Constructability Engineering team.

This is an opportunity to contribute to rewarding infrastructure projects that will enhance regional and national economic prosperity and improve people's lives.

Constructability Engineering

Costain helps to improve people’s lives by deploying technology-based engineering solutions to meet urgent national needs across the UK’s transportation, water and energy infrastructure.

We have a range of engineering and construction professionals including managers, engineers, planners and technical specialists fostering genuine partnerships with both clients and the supply chain on frameworks and large infrastructure projects across the UK. Long-term clients include Network Rail, HS2, Northern Powerhouse Rail (NPR), East West Rail (EWR) and Thames Water as well as more recent frameworks with TfL, Yorkshire Water and Anglian Water.

Drawing on experience you will be rewarded by supporting transformative future schemes as part of and with the support of the existing collaborative and inclusive team of civils, stations, railway, earthworks, highways, tunnelling, water, M&E and planning advisors.

We are looking for people to support team growth across multiple sectors including Rail, Water, Roads, Nuclear and Defence. Currently we are particularly interested in hearing from people with rail stations, earthworks and water infrastructure experience to join the team to suit forecast workload.

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.

Only hits

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

Our consultancy team is involved at early design stages to help the client and design teams understand the engineering and construction considerations to enable safer and more efficient schemes to be developed that also reduce the impact of infrastructure projects on the environment. The range of services we currently deliver includes construction sequencing, construction programme development, construction methodologies, logistics requirements, report writing, stakeholder impacts, estimating, environmental impact assessment support and technical input into working winning.

Our advice at the early design phase ensures that all engineering and ‘buildability’ considerations are considered from the outset. This creates a more robust design solution for when subsequent stages of a project are tendered to market, promoting more efficient overall spend whilst reducing risks and disruption.

You will also support business growth more widely on advisory, consultancy, work winning and live complex project delivery schemes.

The role will include opportunities for flexible home and office working arrangements, although some attendance to locations such as London, Birmingham, Manchester or Leeds is anticipated.
