You'll be working on a variety of interesting projects, contributing to sustainable drainage and infrastructure solutions, with involvement from planning to, detailed design and construction stages.

Based in a small village in Hertfordshire, near the border of Essex, the offices are easy to reach by train, bus or car. There is also a Cycle to work Scheme. Commutable from areas including Hoddesdon, Broxbourne, Hertford, Welwyn, Harlow, Bishops Stortford, Barnet, Enfield, and Stevenage. And there are train links from Tottenham Hale.
