- Position location: Cambridge
- Recruiter contact:Tim Penlington- We’re a global engineering, management, and development consultancy. Our purpose is to improve society by considering social outcomes in everything we do, relentlessly focusing on excellence and digital innovation, transforming our clients’ businesses, our communities and employee opportunities.- A fundamental part of this is respecting each person’s differences and striving to meet their needs.- Our values**:P**rogress, **R**espect, **I**ntegrity, **D**rive, **E**xcellence.**About the division**
The Water Consultancy Division is the centre of excellence within Mott MacDonald for responding to water and wastewater challenges, providing support to colleagues across our global business, and offering fantastic opportunities to get involved in diverse and technically challenging work.- Climate change, aging assets, and population growth place increasing pressure on our water and wastewater assets. Our highly successful water consultancy business is servicing ever-increasing demands from water sector clients to help deliver ambitious capital programmes. The work we do is at the forefront of ensuring safe water supplies for future generations and protecting our environment.- With sustainability, social impacts, digitalisation, and carbon reduction in mind, our diverse and multi-disciplinary teams work together to provide a variety of services throughout the full project life-cycle, from advisory services and feasibility studies, through outline and detailed design, to construction support and site supervision.- As a mathematical modeller, you will be part of a large team of flood risk and water resources specialists, supporting and learning from our teams of asset planners and river, dam, pipeline and treatment engineers as they deliver a wide range of services for UK and international clients. A wide range of prospects would give you opportunities to work with industry-standard hydrodynamic modelling packages (such as MODFLOW, TUFLOW, Flood Modeller, HEC-RAS, ICM, Delft3D) and state-of-the-art Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) software (ANSYS Fluent and Flow-3D). You would work with industry-leading experts to develop numerical models of hydraulic systems at all scales, from catchment-wide to individual flow controls. You would investigate natural processes influencing the fate of contaminants, build ad-hoc assessment tools tailored to project specific needs and undertake statistical analyses. For those with related interests, there are also opportunities to get involved across our teams on activities such as nature-based solutions and systems modelling.- Your input will help our project teams and clients to deliver complex multidisciplinary projects, resulting in strategic decisions and engineering solutions that you can be proud of. Whether it is minimising the carbon footprint of a flood defence, or preventing sewage from spilling to rivers, your work will bring lasting benefits to local communities and the environment around the world.- You will be responsible for:
- Contributing to novel computational solutions by coding in languages (e.g. R and Python), ultimately aiming to use advances in computing (such as GPU processing, machine learning, visualisation, digital twin) to develop scripts and graphical interfaces that revolutionise the way we work.
- Devising script/code solutions to water and environmental problems, including: analysis, data checking, statistical analysis, pattern recognition, data transformation; numerical modelling (including machine learning); bespoke modelling routines, including CFD water quality, groundwater analysis and climate change scenario aggregation; and efficiency tools to provide numerical model set up, running, post-processing and reporting automation.
- Supporting the wider numerical modelling community, with involvement in groundwater (e.g. water resource management, geothermal energy, pollutant tracking); national and international flood risk (e.g. hydrological assessments, flood risk mapping, flood risk assessments, flood forecasting, river restoration); and integrated water management (e.g. drought forecasting, climate change impact assessments, AQUATOR, Pywr, WSIMOD).
- Providing the technical support needed during bidding to win and influence some of the world’s largest infrastructure projects.
- Mott MacDonald combines heritage, vision and values into an ethos that encourages innovative thinking and career progression, whether technical, management or commercial/client-facing. With us, you will have control of your own career path and technical direction, which we will support by giving you the opportunities to work on diverse projects and
