The Opportunity

Arup is seeking to appoint an experienced geotechnical engineer to join the established Geotechnics Group in the Arup London office, which comprises some 100 geotechnical engineers and engineering geologists. Along with maintaining a high level of geotechnical engineering capability, the role will also focus on driving the use of digital tools and techniques in our design work.

• Lead geotechnical engineering design teams
• Development long term working relationships with key clients
• Drive the use of digital tools in ground engineering and geotechnical engineering design
• Actively train and mentor staff in the key skills, attributes and approach needed to integrate digital tools into our design processes.

Is this role for you?

The candidate should have a proven track record in delivering geotechnical consultancy services, working within multidisciplinary design teams. This should include preparation of desk studies, ground investigation specification, interpretative reporting and design of foundations, basements and other geotechnical structures. A good understanding of working on UK based projects and ground conditions is essential. A proven track record in the management and financial control of projects is also required.

The successful candidate will also have significant experience in the use of digital tools such as GIS and Leapfrog, along with the ability to lead the automation of design tools and processes. An ability to drive and support the development of other team members in the use of digital tools and other technological advances is essential.

The successful candidate will demonstrate the skills required to win new work and build long term successful client relationships. The candidate must be a team player with good interpersonal skills, and keen to provide guidance and mentoring of less experienced staff.

The role would suit a dynamic individual with the motivation and ability to drive innovation.

Requirements

• MEng degree or equivalent in civil engineering or a related field
• Chartered (CEng MICE or equivalent).
