* Chartered (or near Chartership) with an appropriate professional body.
* Proven track record in low flows hydrology, including rainfall-runoff modelling.
* Experience in applying UKCP18 and CMIP5/6 projections to climate change impact assessments.

* Awareness of regulatory requirements as regards the UK water resources management planning process.
* Able to guide and mentor junior staff.
* Excellent communication and written skills.

Alongside your technical role, you will have the opportunity to develop your skills in project management and business development through engaging with our water sector and regulatory framework clients.

We offer some fantastic benefits including:

* Health and wellbeing: Private medical insurance for all UK colleagues, health cash plan, access to wellbeing support.
* Financial wellbeing: Employee pension contributions, life assurance, income protection scheme.
* Lifestyle: Minimum of 33-35 days holiday each year, employee saving schemes.
