We are looking for a skilled and motivated Senior Civil Engineer to join our London studio. This is an exciting opportunity to take a leading role in the delivery of inventive, high-quality civil design, working across a wide range of sectors.

As a senior member of the team, you will have the experience and confidence to manage the day-to-day technical delivery of projects, from early concept through to construction.
