Job Description

We can offer you the opportunity to work on some of the world’s most exciting engineering and design projects. We invest in your learning and development and we value the ideas and innovation you could bring to our work. So, if you’re ready, we can’t wait to get you involved.



First though, we thought you’d like to know how our apprenticeship programme works. An apprenticeship enables you to earn a salary whilst you are studying for nationally recognised qualifications. You’ll get to work alongside and learn from our experts who have a wide range of knowledge, capability and experiences to share with you with a programme designed to provide you with the knowledge and skills to be a competent Engineering Technician.



There’s no such thing as a typical day at WSP Parsons Brinckerhoff.  Your role will be varied and your learning will be fast paced. One day can be completely different to the next. You will have the opportunity to learn new skills using specialist software suited to the area of the business you are working in, such as AutoCAD and Autodesk Revit.



You may be involved with taking concepts, ideas and designs from an architect or engineer and creating drawings using the software to match those given. If you’re pulling together packages of drawings you might need to print, trim and fold these to be sent off to site or the client.



 

Personal Qualities :

You should be able to demonstrate that you are




  • enthusiastic

  • willing to learn

  • punctual

  • reliable

  • committed

  • willing to learn

  • self-motivated



 


Skills Required :

To be a Civil Engineering Technician you should:




  • be good at maths and physics

  • be creative and practical

  • be adaptable and persevering

  • be interested in using computers for design work, calculations, and testing designs

  • be able to produce neat and accurate technical drawings

  • be able to think in a methodical way to design, plan and organise projects

  • work well with other people

  • be able to organise the work of others



 


Future Prospects : Our apprenticeship programme is just the beginning. At the end of the programme we will help you to reflect on what you have learned and discuss how you want to move forward with your career at WSP Parsons Brinckerhoff. You will continue to benefit from mentor support with the opportunity to go onto further study to get a HNC, HND, degree level qualification and maybe even a Master’s Degree.
