Senior Civil Engineer in Solihull

A nationally recognised multidisciplinary consultancy is looking to appoint a Senior Civil Engineer to support the continued growth of its civil engineering presence in the South Birmingham area.

This is a particularly exciting opportunity because the office is in a significant growth phase, meaning the successful candidate will work closely alongside a Partner as a genuine right-hand person within the team. For an ambitious engineer, this creates a clear platform for progression, leadership responsibility and long-term career development within a highly respected consultancy environment.

The business has an exceptionally strong pipeline of residential development work, while continuing to expand further into commercial, logistics, education, infrastructure and mixed-use sectors.

The Role

You'll play a key role in the design and delivery of development infrastructure projects across residential-led schemes alongside an increasingly diverse portfolio of commercial and infrastructure developments. Projects typically include highways, drainage, earthworks, flood alleviation, SuDS, external works and wider infrastructure coordination from planning stage through to detailed design and construction delivery.

The role will involve working closely with multidisciplinary teams across planning, structures, transport and wider engineering disciplines while supporting project delivery for developers, architects, contractors and public sector clients. You'll also have the opportunity to take ownership of projects, mentor junior engineers and contribute to the continued development and growth of the Birmingham civil engineering team.

What We're Looking For

• Strong experience within development infrastructure design, particularly across residential development projects.
• Good working knowledge of highways and drainage design including S278, S38 and S104 agreements.
• Experience producing drainage strategies, levels, external works and infrastructure designs from planning through to detailed delivery stages.
• Proficiency with software such as Civil 3D, AutoCAD and MicroDrainage / Causeway Flow.
• Strong communication and coordination skills with the ability to work collaboratively across multidisciplinary teams.
• Ambition to progress technically and professionally within a growing office environment.

Why Apply?

This is a genuinely unique opportunity to join a nationally respected consultancy at an important stage of growth within the Birmingham region. Rather than joining a large, fully established hierarchy, you'll have the chance to work directly alongside senior leadership and play a visible role in shaping the future growth of the office.

The consultancy offers exposure to high-profile and technically varied projects across residential, commercial, logistics, education and infrastructure sectors, alongside strong long-term progression potential for high-performing individuals. You'll also benefit from a collaborative culture, multidisciplinary project exposure, Chartership support and the backing of one of the UK's most established engineering consultancies.
