Are you into flood risk management and looking for your next exciting opportunity? We are looking for senior flood modellers to join our thriving business, working on our great projects across the UK. If this is you, we want to hear from you and discuss how we can help you develop your career!
We have recently been named as a Delivery Partner for the Environment Agency’s latest framework - to help better understand the impact of climate change and risk of flooding for communities in England. Under the 2024 Mapping and Modelling Framework, AtkinsRéalis will provide the Environment Agency with survey, mapping, modelling, incident management, hydrological and other professional services to help identify and plan for climate events. This is a significant programme that will help the Environment Agency understand better the impact of climate change and reduce the risk of flooding to communities across England, including the vital response required to support communities that have been flooded. The Mapping and Modelling Framework underpins the work of the Environment Agency, enabling it to make informed investment decisions based on data and evidence.
As a result of this and other committed projects, we have vacancies UK wide for enthusiastic and ambitious individuals in a predominantly technical area.
