About the Role
Imagine a career where your expertise directly transforms urban environments and safeguards water quality for generations to come. At Stantec, you will pioneer the future of sustainable water management across the UK and Ireland, working on a vibrant portfolio of projects backed by long-term client partnerships. This role is not just about modelling; it is about leading the charge in creating smarter, healthier communities.

As our next Principal Urban Drainage Modeller, you will be instrumental in elevating team capabilities by guiding and training colleagues, fostering a new generation of experts. You will plan and coordinate critical urban drainage initiatives from concept to completion, championing technical excellence and best practices to ensure our innovative solutions consistently exceed expectations.

You will collaborate with a dynamic interdisciplinary team of 175 specialists across the UK, Pune, and our client and partner networks. This is your chance to make a tangible difference on industry-leading projects, driving innovation and leaving a lasting legacy in the water sector.

- Culture of inclusivity celebrating diversity and prioritising doing what’s right
- Award-winning consultancy committed to ambitious environmental goals

Experience
Proven ability to successfully lead projects in an urban drainage environment, demonstrating technical expertise across a wide range of urban drainage modelling activities. Experience managing and developing junior modellers is beneficial but there is scope to focus on a primarily technical role.

Qualifications
Degree qualified with membership to a relevant professional institution such as CIWEM or ICE.
