Job Description
Associate Civil Engineer
Manchester | Permanent | Competitive salary + benefits | Hybrid working
I'm working with a forward-thinking civil engineering consultancy that's doing things differently - design-led, sustainability-focused, and genuinely committed to improving places and communities through infrastructure. Based in Manchester, their team delivers standout projects that blend engineering, landscape, and urban design-from green streets and active travel schemes to low-carbon retrofits and town centre transformations.
They're now looking for an Associate Civil Engineer to step into a key leadership role in their growing civil team. This is a brilliant opportunity for someone who combines technical confidence with natural team leadership - someone who enjoys developing others, steering delivery, and working closely with clients to shape outcomes from day one.
The Opportunity
·Take the lead on major infrastructure and regeneration projects-managing design delivery from early concepts through to construction.
·Manage and mentor a growing team of engineers and technicians-guiding technical development, supporting career progression, and ensuring high standards of delivery.
·Own project resourcing, support fee and programme planning, and contribute to the commercial health of the studio.
·Be the day-to-day point of contact for clients, consultants, and design collaborators.
·Help shape the direction of the civil engineering team - bringing in best practice, supporting recruitment, and embedding a strong team culture.
What They're Looking For
·A Chartered Civil Engineer (ICE / CIWEM / CIHT / IStructE or equivalent) with strong consultancy experience.
·Strong technical background in civil infrastructure-drainage, highways, utilities, flood risk and earthworks.
·Confident using Civil 3D, MicroDrainage / Causeway Flow, AutoCAD and other relevant software.
·Proven experience managing people - from performance reviews and training plans to everyday support and mentorship.
·Commercially aware - able to plan resources, monitor budgets, and support business growth.
·A collaborative mindset - you'll be working alongside landscape architects, urban designers and planners to deliver genuinely integrated design.
Why This Role Stands Out
·A senior leadership role in a growing team where you'll have genuine influence over how things are done.
·Projects that align with values - creating better, greener, more inclusive places for people.
·A people-first culture with hybrid working, flexible hours, and support for professional development.
·Clear path to future progression, with support from directors who value input and initiative.
