The Opportunity

Do you have a passion for Civil Engineering and are you driven to create solutions for the unprecedented climate, environmental, and efficiency challenges facing our communities? Then make a real difference and join the award-winning team at Stantec!

We are excited to continue our significant growth journey in Northern Ireland and have ambitious plans for expansion in 2026 and beyond.

This exciting local pipeline of work, coupled with the scale of opportunity across the UK's AMP8 cycle—including supporting Southern Water’s Professional Services Framework—means we are actively seeking talented Civil Engineers at all levels with experience in the water/wastewater industry to join us.

While you will be delivering work locally, you'll also have the opportunity to support critical resilience and improvement schemes across the South of England.

You will play a vital role in our team, developing technical solutions and providing expert advice to our clients. You'll ensure projects are delivered to the highest standards of cost, schedule, and quality, and work collaboratively within multi-disciplinary teams. A key part of your role will be fostering long-term relationships with external stakeholders and clients.

On a personal level, we are committed to aiding your career progression and increasing your job satisfaction. Your role will be varied and challenging, providing the perfect opportunity to learn from the wider group and take your career to the next level.

About You

We are looking for individuals who embody our values of client focus and service excellence and have a passion for making a difference in the Water sector and have the following:

  • Degree qualified (or equivalent) in Civil Engineering or a relevant subject.
  • Experience working within the regulated water industry.
  • You are chartered, or actively working toward chartered status (e.g., IEI, ICE, CIWEM).
  • Knowledge of water and wastewater infrastructure, networks, and treatment processes.
  • Experience in areas such as Clean Water and Wastewater Treatment, and Trunk Mains and Large Diameter Pipeline Design.

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.
