Overview of the role

Mott MacDonald is a unique company with a strong sense of purpose to improve society by considering social outcomes in everything we do, relentlessly focusing on excellence and digital innovation, transforming our clients’ business, our communities and employee opportunities. We are engaged on major AMP8 frameworks with most UK water companies and through our global reach support regulators, asset owners and investors worldwide. The current public and political pressure to resolve water quality issues in our watercourses has resulted in a significant increase in demand for these services, and in response to this we are keen to engage talented scientists and modellers to drive innovation, work across disciplines on modelling projects, support the development of our people and strengthen our client offering. We combine heritage, vision and values into an ethos that encourages innovative thinking and career progression, whether technical, management or commercial/client-facing. Our employee-owned structure brings us the flexibility to pursue our values freely. With us, you will have control of your own career path and technical direction, which we will support by giving you the opportunities to face new challenges and take on more responsibility.
