Principal Geotechnical Engineer
I'm looking for an experienced geotechnical engineer ready to take their career to the next level. You will be leading projects that protect communities, improve infrastructure, and combat the impacts of climate change-all while being part of an employee-owned company with a deep commitment to sustainability and innovation.
Join a forward-thinking team where your technical expertise will shape some of the most significant flood risk and infrastructure projects across Scotland and northern England.
Principal Geotechnical Engineer Role:
Be the Technical Lead:
Step into a leadership role where you'll oversee complex geotechnical analyses, mentor talented engineers, and ensure projects are delivered to the highest standards. You'll contribute directly to the success of multidisciplinary teams and innovative engineering solutions.
Work with Purpose:
You'll focus on flood protection, coastal defences, and dams & reservoirs projects that have a lasting impact. Your work will help safeguard communities and improve resilience against climate change, with projects spanning initial ground investigations to detailed design and construction.
Collaborate Widely:
You'll provide geotechnical expertise to a variety of clients, including Network Rail, local authorities, and industry-leading flood risk initiatives. With access to cutting-edge tools and interdisciplinary collaboration, no two projects are the same.
Principal Geotechnical Engineer Requirements:
Qualifications & Accreditation: A BEng/MEng in Civil Engineering or a related field, with an MSc in Geotechnical Engineering preferred. Chartered membership with ICE or the Geological Society is essential.
Expertise in Geotechnical Design: Proven experience in Eurocode-compliant projects, slope stability, seepage analysis, and a range of geotechnical solutions, from deep foundations to ground improvement techniques.
Technical ability: Proficiency in tools like Slope/w, WALLAP, and PLAXIS is a must, and familiarity with platforms like Leapfrog Works or OpenGround is highly desirable.
Communication & Leadership: Strong interpersonal skills, with a talent for mentoring junior staff and collaborating across disciplines.
This role is a chance to make a real difference while advancing your career in a supportive, purpose-driven environment.
