Urban Drainage Modeller

The water industry is undergoing unprecedented transformation with AMP8 driving massive investment. At Stantec, we're not just observing this change—we're at the technical vanguard, helping major water companies across the South West & Wales engineer the next generation of urban drainage systems.

We're seeking innovative Urban Drainage Modellers to expand our capacity and execute complex projects across the entire lifecycle.

You'll join an established, high-performing team, leveraging your specialism to tackle core challenges in catchment growth, flood risk mitigation, and water quality enhancement. Our work is data-intensive and demands a deep understanding of urban drainage's role in the wider hydrological cycle.

Expect to:

• Develop and calibrate advanced hydraulic models to simulate real-world urban runoff, sewer capacity, and pollution events.

• Engineer strategic solutions that improve environmental compliance, manage urban pollution, and secure long-term system resilience.

• Contribute to multi-disciplinary projects with clear, measurable community and environmental benefits.

This is a chance to move beyond routine tasks and contribute to mission-critical infrastructure delivery. If you thrive on complex modelling and seeing your technical expertise drive tangible results, this is your platform.

Opportunities are available in Birmingham, Redditch, & Derby.
