At WSP, you can access our global scale, contribute to landmark projects and connect with the brightest minds in your field to do the best work of your life. You can embrace your curiosity in a culture that celebrates new ideas and diverse perspectives. You can experience a world of opportunity and the chance to shape a career as unique as you.

A Little More About Your Role
Are you ready for the next step in your career? Are you eager to help deliver and grow our national programme of work? Focusing on the delivery of flood risk management and strategic infrastructure projects, you will have the opportunity to be a major contributor or lead for our external and internal clients. You will be responsible for driving the direction of projects working with other WSP disciplines and overseeing and mentoring less experienced hydrologists within our Sustainable Water Management Consulting team.

Your work will be varied and challenging and is likely to include the following:

  • Providing technical leadership for flood hydrology using recognised UK based methods (FEH Statistical, ReFH etc.) for often complex studies (e.g. small catchments, permeable, urban, complex data)
  • Undertaking Quality Assurance and independent technical reviews
  • Undertaking and supervising the production of high quality client- and public-facing deliverables, demonstrated through excellence in communication and an ability to present the visualisation and interpretation of complex data
  • Mentoring and technical development of others in hydrology
  • Support business development through identifying prospective opportunities, supporting on the preparation of proposals and strengthening WSP's relationship with clients
  • Providing project, commercial and financial management for projects
  • Undertaking client and stakeholder liaison
  • Displaying and promoting a 'safety first' attitude in line with WSP's health and safety policy and procedures

Although primarily a UK based role, you will also be expected to work collaboratively with teams across WSP's global business.

Your Team
Our national fluvial and pluvial modelling team deliver flood modelling to support a broad portfolio of work including FCERM studies and major infrastructure projects (including working across the energy, transport, government and water sectors). As a key member of the national hydrology team, you will be responsible for delivery and technical oversight of projects to provide a range of flood risk management related services for government, local authority, private and major infrastructure clients as well as supporting the delivery of innovation.

What We Will Be Looking For You To Demonstrate

  • Proven track record in undertaking hydrology studies
  • Experience of undertaking hydrology reviews for statutory bodies
  • Commercial awareness
  • Ability to work within multidisciplinary teams
  • Drive and ability to build client relationships
  • Excellent interpersonal skills
  • Excellent report-writing, technical review, numerical and analytical skills, with an eye for detail and enjoy solving challenging hydrological problems.
  • Chartership with a relevant professional body (or commitment to work towards within an agreed period)
