From your first day, you will join an unrivalled community of experts, where everyone is supported in their career path and encouraged to work towards a professional qualification. You will help us to deliver effective and professional services for a range of varied and high-profile clients.

You will regularly interact with architects, developers and engineers on projects in diverse sectors including buildings, energy, industry and transport. Is this role right for you? For this opportunity, we are seeking the following qualifications, skills and attributes: Masters or bachelor's level degree, ideally in engineering science, mechanical, civil, or aeronautical engineering (2:1/60% or higher or equivalent) but other degree courses with an emphasis on mathematics and modelling will also be considered. A strong interest in fluid dynamics and how it impacts the built environment. A strong interest in numerical, statistical and/or physical modelling. Experience with coding languages, such as Python or MATLAB is an advantage. We're looking for people who are curious and ready to evolve how you think and work.
