The Team in Nottingham has experienced steady growth over the past couple of years and is now in a position to further establish their presence in the East Midlands.

Although they are part of one of the UKs largest consultancies the team in Nottingham is quite small (7) and has a good atmosphere and team spirit meaning that you are provided with an excellent, personal training programme and the chance to be fully involved in projects from start to finish.

As a company they are confident they can offer market leading salaries & benefits including:

- 25 Days annual leave
- Flexible annual leave scheme
- Company Pension Scheme
- Employee Assistance Programme
- Share Incentive Plan
- Life Assurance Scheme
- Professional Membership Fees Paid

As an Assistant Engineer you will play a key support role on a number of infrastructure design projects. Making use of available software programmes and also through production of sketch drawings you will be required to produce accurate highways and drainage designs for a client base that is predominantly within the residential sector.

Other projects include town centre redevelopments and as you receive further training you will have a more involved role in the team.

Qualifications/Skills Required

For the role of Assistant Engineer you will need to hold a relevant Degree in Civil Engineering and will have gained previous experience in highways and/or drainage design.

You will need to have a basic understanding of necessary technical guidelines including DMRB and you are likely to have previously been involved in delivering S38 schemes.

This role is most likely to suit someone with recent UK infrastructure design experience who is ready to make a positive career step and kick start their career in this field of civil engineering.
