We are in search of individuals who possess the motivation and enthusiasm to embrace future challenges. AtkinsRéalis ardently supports career advancement and upholds a strong commitment to technical development and mentorship. Our extensive knowledge and wide-ranging expertise empower you to cultivate a rewarding career in this dynamic and rapidly evolving field.

Key Responsibilities:
We are looking for a diverse range of professionals to assume Senior, Principal, or Chief Geotechnical Engineering roles within our Ground Engineering division. Candidates should be capable of leading intricate geotechnical projects with minimal oversight, engaging in technical reviews, and assisting colleagues in enhancing their understanding of advanced geotechnical principles and offshore geotechnics.

Qualifications:
- A solid academic foundation with a relevant degree, ideally complemented by an MSc or PhD in a pertinent field.
- Demonstrated experience in geotechnical analysis and design, particularly within the Offshore sector.
- Proficiency in leading offshore design projects, including offshore foundation design (monopile, jacket foundations, and suction caissons), driveability, cable burial trench ability, and deep-water anchoring.
- In-depth knowledge of advanced constitutive soil models, parameter selection for such models, soil-structure interaction, and familiarity with numerical modelling software (FLAC, PLAXIS 2D / 3D, etc.) alongside standard geotechnical software.
- Experience in validating geotechnical numerical analyses and calibrating numerical models.
- Ability to manage the geotechnical numerical analysis process within an interdisciplinary project environment.
- A passion for driving digital innovation and enhancing AtkinsRéalis' capabilities in offshore geotechnics and advanced geotechnical analysis.
- Exceptional communication skills and the confidence to engage with clients and engineers from various disciplines.
- Strong report writing skills with the ability to self-review and produce precise work.
- A willingness to travel for short assignments, both domestically and internationally.
- Progressing towards or holding Chartered status.
- A valid UK driving licence.

We support flexible working arrangements and are eager to discuss how we can accommodate individual needs. We recognize the importance of a diverse and flexible workforce, where work-life balance is paramount. Consequently, AtkinsRéalis offers flexible working options, eliminating the constraints of a fixed 9-to-5 schedule, the necessity for a 5-day workweek, and the requirement for full-time contracts.
