Overview

Let’s make great design possible

Are you ready to take up a vital role in shaping some of our exciting projects? How about joining our talented team, where everyone has a voice, and together we face our clients’ problems head‑on. It’s a diverse and inclusive work environment where world‑class talent knows no distinctions. We know that different people have different priorities, which is why we’re here to support you. Flexible and remote working is a central part of our culture. So, talk to us about what’s ideal for you – from reduced weeks to buying more leave over school holidays. And if you’re returning from a career break, ask us how we can help you transition back into work with us.

Join us at an exciting point in our journey as we launch our new Intelligent Transport and Infrastructure practice. We have brought together a team of 180 consultants and engineers with deep expertise across asset management, intelligent mobility, smart technology, and digital and data solutions within the transport environment. This newly formed, externally facing business is designed to align closely with our clients’ evolving needs, while creating fresh opportunities for our people to grow, develop, and thrive as part of a collaborative and innovative practice.

In Asset Management, we help our road, rail, and transportation customers to get the most out of their built infrastructure assets. We provide the information they need to make key plans and decisions about the future, such as when to invest in their assets and what maintenance activities to prioritise.

Asset management is one of Atkins priorities for growth, and we are seeking a Structures Asset Management Engineer to support our existing portfolio of projects and provide capacity to grow the business and support future opportunities. The person we’re seeking to employ will enjoy contributing across a portfolio of consultancy projects and will thrive in a busy, innovative and challenging environment. You’ll be technically excellent, whatever your level of experience and will be equally happy presenting to a client or developing technical details back at the office. The role will involve providing strategic direction to clients in defining and implementing their asset management policies, to using data and analysis tools to develop works programmes at the tactical level. The focus of the role will be project delivery, with some support activities including project bidding. In addition, there will be opportunities to manage your own projects as part of your role. We also advise clients on the implementation of national guidance and best practice, such as the uptake of risk‑based approaches to asset management. This often involves working closely with clients to understand their needs and aspirations, followed by developing and implementing improvement or transformation plans. The projects we work on are varied, dynamic and stimulating, providing plenty of opportunity for new challenges and personal growth.
