Senior Civil Engineer
Salary: £50,000 - £55,000
Location: Farringdon, London (Hybrid Working)
Are you a Senior Civil Engineer looking to take the next step in your career with a growing multidisciplinary consultancy?
I'm working with a well-established engineering consultancy that's looking to strengthen its Civil Engineering team in Central London. With around 200 employees globally, the business has built an excellent reputation for delivering technically challenging projects across the industrial, manufacturing, and data centre sectors.
This is an excellent opportunity to join a collaborative team where you'll play a key role in delivering projects from concept through to construction, while continuing to develop your technical expertise and progress towards the next stage of your career.
The Role
As a Senior Civil Engineer, you'll work on a diverse range of projects across the UK, taking responsibility for the design and coordination of civil engineering schemes while working closely with clients and multidisciplinary design teams. You'll be involved in:
- Designing highways, drainage, levels, earthworks, utilities, and external works.
- Preparing infrastructure designs using AutoCAD, Civil 3D, and MicroDrainage/InfoDrainage.
- Producing drainage strategies and flood mitigation solutions.
- Managing approvals with Local Authorities, Building Control, statutory undertakers, and environmental bodies.
- Delivering Section 104, Section 106, and Section 278 applications.
- Supporting junior engineers and contributing to the continued growth of the team.
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.
