The Opportunity
We are looking for an enthusiastic Pavement Engineer with excellent design, technical and software skills who enjoys working collaboratively within multi-professional design teams. With teams in Birmingham and Nottingham, you can choose which office to be based from on a hybrid basis. The role will have a focus on pavement design including airfield, highways and maritime environments. You will assist in the production of drawings, specifications and reports to support the project team. If you have demonstrable previous experience in pavement design for infrastructure projects, we want to hear from you!
At Arup, you belong to an extraordinary collective – in which we encourage individuality to thrive. Our strength comes from how we respect, share and connect our diverse experiences, perspectives and ideas. You will have the opportunity do socially useful work that has meaning – to Arup, to your career, to our members and to the clients and communities we serve.
Is this role right for you?
You will support the Senior Engineer and deliver a variety of projects across a number of infrastructure workstreams including but not limited to aviation, highways, rail and ports and heavy industries. You will deliver the preliminary and detailed design of infrastructure projects, primarily in the airside infrastructure space but be flexible to provide support expert advice commissions and other engineering disciplines. This will involve producing calculations, reports and drawings using your experience and knowledge of civil pavement design. In this role you will showcase your experience in pavement investigation, evaluation techniques and pavement strengthening design, along with your knowledge of pavement design principles (flexible, rigid and composite pavements).
Requirements:
- You will have a degree in Civil Engineering and demonstrable enthusiasm for pavement work.
- Knowledge and understanding of earthworks and pavement materials (Concrete, Asphalt and Hydraulically Bound Materials).
- Experience in analytical pavement design.
