You’ll be joining the Engineering Consultancy that everyone (from all walks of life) has heard of and the organisation that’s put such icons as the Bahrain world trade centre and the Burj Al Arab hotel on the map.We operate a ‘one team-one vision’ across the Water Operations business. Whilst you’ll be expected to take ownership of your own projects and be expected to deliver you will reap the benefits offered by being part of one of the largest modelling teams in the UK. Our passion is for training and development and you will be actively encouraged to identify a professional institution suitable to your academic qualification and to work towards achieving professional membership. Typically this is Chartered status (Engineer/Environmentalist/Scientist) with the Chartered Institution of Water and Environmental Management (CIWEM) but your chosen career path will be fully supported. We don’t suffer from silo thinking. Cross office co-operation and communication means that we deliver high quality services to all of our clients. Communication is encouraged and means that at all levels in the business our staff are aware of opportunities for career development and forthcoming new and interesting projects. You will get involved with a number of projects for a number of clients from an early stage in your career with Atkins. This may mean extending your existing knowledge of Synergee/ Infoworks or another modelling package in work for new UK and international clients. Whether your heart lies in technical skill, commercial management, project management or leading a team there’s a career path for you. Atkins has grown to be the No1 employer by recognising talent, rewarding achievement and by allowing people to reach their potential. There’s a great energy in the team and the work / life balance is what you would expect of a a Sunday Times Top 20 large Company to work for. For example, last year the Distribution Networks team in the Midlands/North went to Centre Parcs for the weekend as recognition of their contribution to record delivery. What will we do this year?
