build your civil engineering career on major infrastructure work

You are a capable civil engineer who wants to work on infrastructure that actually matters, not another small commercial scheme that gets forgotten the moment it is finished.This is a large, international engineering and infrastructure consultancy with a strong UK presence, working across transport, water, rail and major public infrastructure projects for government and private clients alike. It is employee owned, which shapes a genuinely collaborative culture rather than one driven purely by shareholder targets, and gives staff a real say in how the business is run.If you are currently working on projects too small to properly test your skills, or feel like career progression at your current firm has stalled, this role offers a different scale of work entirely. You will take ownership of technical design work on live infrastructure schemes, work alongside senior engineers across multiple disciplines, and build a portfolio of projects that genuinely stand out on a CV. The size of the business also means clear routes into specialist areas over time, whether that is water, rail, transport planning or major bridge structures, without having to change employer to get there. There is also genuine investment in professional development, including structured support towards chartership for engineers who are not yet chartered.Salary is between 43,000 and 55,000, depending on experience and location.If this sounds like the scale of work you have been missing, get in touch for a confidential conversation.If you've read this far and you're still unsure and would prefer a detailed market insight including salary bands and market trends - then check out our free guide here: https://www.responsumltd.com/uk-salary-guide-2026
