**Why Arup?**
Watch this short clip to discover how Arup are shaping a better world and how you could be a part of it
**The Opportunity**
The main focus of Arup’s Water team in Sheffield is stormwater. We advise our clients on the risk of flooding at strategic (city or region-wide) or site scale. We model the movement of water and the risks associated with flooding, using integrated hydraulic models. We plan and design nature-based solutions to manage stormwater and provide wider benefits in the built and rural environment. This team has enjoyed strong organic growth, but demand for practical and rigorously-proven solutions continues to rise.
Arup in Sheffield are leading the charge to retrofit blue-green infrastructure into the urban landscape at scale as a tool to reduce flood risk and pollution spills. In fact, we’re winning awards for it. Part of the Mansfield Sustainable Flood Resilience (MSFR) project, Arup was appointed to help Severn Trent design and implement an urban flood resilience scheme based on biodiversity interventions instead of traditional drainage systems. Turning the town into a sponge, these blue green interventions will free up capacity in sewers by capturing up to 58,000m3 of surface water. We work closely with our landscape team and other disciplines to create amazing solutions such as Mansfield, with multiple benefits for people and biodiversity. Our water company clients have seen the potential; they want to increase investment in retrofit blue-green infrastructure to solve problems in other towns and cities.
To take advantage of this growth and support our future vision, we need an experienced and engaging professional to help deliver projects. We are looking for a passionate advocate of nature-based solutions; someone who wants to play a part in helping the UK to embrace blue green infrastructure and all its benefits. You must understand the benefits and value of blue-green infrastructure, SuDS and other nature-based solutions, and be willing to promote it to our clients and collaborators. You might be digital-savvy and have an interest in using digital tools to solve complex problems or eliminate repetitive tasks. You will probably have design or delivery experience within the water sector, and your background could be as an engineer, a scientist or in a related discipline. We appreciate the value of diversity of education and experience because it allows us to bring new perspectives and alternative solutions.
**Is this role right for you?**
Reporting to our Blue-Green Infrastructure Leader in Sheffield, you will provide support across the team with business development, project leadership and technical excellence. Typical responsibilities include preparing proposals, providing hands-on input to our projects, and writing technical reports to convey complex concepts for our clients. You will feel confident talking to government, authorities and significant clients, and presenting at conferences. You will be able to speak knowledgeably about the benefits of blue-green infrastructure, identify opportunities and connect stakeholders. As a senior member of the team, you will also provide line management and supporting the development of our junior team members. Reviewing and appraising the work of others to maintain a high-quality output across the team. Lastly, you will be leading and contributing to project meetings, both internally and externally, and monitor project or team budgets to ensure a favourable commercial outcome.
**Requirements**:
- Extensive experience of the design of SuDS or nature based solutions, in a retrofit context or on new build developments.
- An understanding of hydraulic and hydrological processes relating to stormwater management.
- A desire to embrace digital technologies and innovations to find efficiencies in design processes. Experience of GIS, FME and/or Python would be an advantage.
- Experience delivering civil engineering drainage designs from concept to detailed design stages.
- Previous experience working within regulated industries such as the water/nuclear sector
- Mature report writing; able to convey complex concepts in an engaging and understandable way.
- Abilities managing other professionals along with experience of dealing with clients.
