Job Description
Bennett and Game are pleased to be representing a well-established, multidisciplinary consultancy looking for a capable Hydraulic Modeler to take ownership of fluvial modelling assignments, guide junior colleagues and provide clear, defensible advice to clients and regulators across a wide range of infrastructure and development projects. This is an excellent opportunity for a driven and technically confident professional to play a key role in delivering high-quality, practical flood-risk solutions within a collaborative and growing team.
This is a role where your work truly matters. You'll help keep people, places, and infrastructure safer through evidence-led flood modelling and practical mitigation advice.
The position offers real variety, from conducting site walkovers to developing and refining hydraulic models and translating complex data into clear, actionable reports for clients. This role also offers a strong platform for professional growth, with opportunities to mentor junior colleagues and progress your CIWEM journey alongside experienced specialists.
The company culture is collaborative, with planning, ecology and engineering teams working closely together. Impressively, 25% of staff have been with the business for over a decade, a testament to its supportive and rewarding environment. Recently, the consultancy was shortlisted for the Community Impact Award at The Business Desk's Yorkshire Business of the Year Awards a reflection of their strong values, people-first approach and wider contribution to the sector.
The working pattern is balanced: the position is office based in Manchester, with occasional visits to Sheffield and site-based work, while remote/hybrid arrangements will be considered for experienced applicants.
