Are you a Graduate Civil Engineer looking to build your career in the water industry?

We’re looking for a Graduate Civil Engineer to join our team and play a key role in delivering innovative and sustainable clean water and wastewater infrastructure projects across the East of England.

Working as part of the @one Alliance, you’ll have the opportunity to work alongside experienced engineers and multidisciplinary teams, developing your technical knowledge and gaining valuable experience across projects from feasibility and optioneering through to detailed design and construction.

What will you be doing?

As a Graduate Civil Engineer, you’ll support the development and delivery of civil engineering designs, while learning from experienced colleagues and contributing to projects that make a real difference to communities and the environment.

Your Responsibilities Will Include

  • Supporting the development and coordination of civil engineering designs and multidisciplinary teams.
  • Assisting with the delivery of clean water and wastewater infrastructure projects.
  • Applying engineering principles, British Standards and Eurocodes to the design of civil engineering and reinforced concrete structures.
  • Supporting the design of pipelines, including pressure and gravity systems, open channels and closed conduits.
  • Producing technical sketches and contributing to design development and modelling.
  • Supporting projects from feasibility and optioneering through to detailed design and construction.
  • Using CAD and relevant engineering software to support design and modelling activities.
  • Assisting with design risk assessments and ensuring appropriate risk management is considered throughout the design process.
  • Supporting the preparation of Pre-Construction Information and Health & Safety documentation.
  • Assisting with site surveys, site investigations and topographical survey requirements.
  • Working with contractors, specialist suppliers and other disciplines to resolve technical queries and support project delivery.
  • Contributing to quality assurance and ensuring designs comply with relevant standards and requirements.
  • Monitoring design progress against programme, cost and quality requirements.
  • Identifying opportunities for innovation and more efficient ways of working.

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.
