The Role

This role involves hands-on modelling, analysis, and interpretation of water and wastewater network performance to support client projects across the UK water sector. It’s ideal for someone with a strong technical grounding in hydraulic modelling who enjoys problem-solving and working collaboratively in multidisciplinary project teams.

Key Responsibilities 

• Lead and deliver hydraulic modelling of complex water and wastewater treatment and distribution systems.
• Develop, calibrate, and maintain hydraulic models for wastewater and water networks and infrastructure.
• Collaborate effectively with engineers, analysts, and consultants to integrate modelling outputs into wider project solutions.
• Analyse model results to identify network performance issues, optimise system operation, and support decision-making.
• Contribute to the design and implementation of innovative modelling approaches and digital tools.
• Participate in project meetings, contribute to client discussions, and support the achievement of project milestones.
• Ensure modelling outputs are accurate, well-documented, and aligned with project requirements and quality standards.
• Support data preparation, validation, and analysis using relevant software and tools.

Person Specification

• Technically minded and analytical, with a passion for understanding how hydraulic networks and systems behave and can be optimised.
• Collaborative team player who communicates clearly and works well within multidisciplinary project environments.
• Proactive problem-solver, able to manage tasks independently while meeting project deadlines.
• Detail-oriented and committed to producing high-quality technical work.
• Curious and innovative, with an interest in digital transformation and the application of new technologies in the water sector.

Skills and Experience

• Experience within a UK water company, consultancy, or regulated utilities environment.
• Strong knowledge and experience in the operation, analysis, or modelling of water and wastewater networks.
• Hands-on experience with hydraulic modelling software (e.g., InfoWorks ICM / WS Pro, EPANET, or equivalent).
• Understanding of wastewater networks and water supply distribution systems, network hydraulics, and performance drivers.
• Ability to work autonomously and manage workload across multiple projects. 

Education and Qualifications

• There are no specific qualifications or educational requirements needed for this position.
