Across Stantec, we are building on a highly successful period of growth. We enable the delivery of sustainable development and infrastructure projects that adapt to and mitigate the effects of climate change. We are also responding to the current ecological crisis in the UK by designing infrastructure that conforms to the Eel Regulations 2009.
As part of this role, you will be involved in the whole project life cycle from feasibility and optioneering through to detailed design and construction support including site surveys and investigations. You also be responsible for working and liaising with project managers, technical leaders, design engineers, clients, supply chain partners, contractors, planners, and other stakeholders to achieve positive outcomes for the projects and community. You will also manage and guide the more junior team members and help with their development.
About You
The successful candidate will be an experienced Mechanical Engineer who is ideally chartered with the IMechE, has experience in mechanical design, and is ideally experienced with pump station optioneering, design, construction management, and commissioning.
You will be experienced in producing and reviewing technical outputs such as technical specifications and reports, sizing and designing pumping systems and water systems, schedules, be familiar with collaborative planning reviews and designs of solutions, and providing construction and commissioning services.
You will be able to provide engineering input to design outputs in collaboration with other disciplines, such as General Arrangement Drawings, 3D models, Control Philsophies, and Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams. To be successful in this role, you will have strong communication skills and be able to deliver technical presentations to clients and other design engineers, as well as input into collaborative design discussions, including technical workshops, safety reviews, including HAZOPs and ALMs. You will also be able to provide technical leadership to the Flood and Coastal Mechanical team and support the development of junior engineers.
You will understand how lowland drainage pumping stations operate and gain experience in assessing existing site infrastructure to develop and deliver the mechanical design. You will also have an awareness of the Eel Regulations 2009, and their implications on flood and coastal pumping stations. We would also be interested in speaking with candidates who have experience within the energy, infrastructure & water sectors in a mechanical engineering capacity.
Most importantly, you will embody and support our values of client focus, designing with community in mind, collaboration and service excellence.
