Disciplines available within Transport and Ground Engineering
Civil Engineering (Click here for more information and to apply)
This opportunity will be based in Edinburgh
Our Civil Engineers can find themselves working in partnership with our experts in buildings, bridges, tunnels, geotechnics, environmental consulting and transport planning. Energy, collaboration, and effective communication is fundamental to bring these elements together as our Civil Engineering teams are often at the core of these disciplines acting as integrators or facilitators. Our teams also work closely with many external bodies to deliver the project, from clients and architects to statutory approval organisations. Our core skills in the Civil Engineering teams typically include masterplan development, sustainable drainage designs, flood risk management, maritime ports, pavement designs, earthworks assessments, access road design and utilities coordination.
We are looking for candidates who are working towards a degree in Civil Engineering .
Highways (Click here for more information and to apply)
This opportunity will be based in Leeds & Manchester
Around the world, we are helping national road operators plan for connected and autonomous vehicles on their networks by advising on key investment decisions, transitional commitments and trialling new technologies. In the UK, Arup is leading the UK Autodrive consortium which is evaluating the complex implementation issues and business models presented by autonomous vehicles. We work with governments to develop future scenarios to help improve planning decisions and supported Highways England as they developed their first innovation, technology and research strategy identifying projects and trials to improve safety and tackle congestion on the UK's roads.
Our core skills in the Highways teams range from geometric alignment design, surface water drainage design and building of intelligent 3D models; through to stakeholder engagement and project management. We are looking for candidates with an appetite to develop their engineering, digital and management abilities whilst working on large multi-disciplinary projects from feasibility stage through to construction.
