Sr. Associate, Urban Water Resources Planning Lead, US Water, South - ( 240002VX )

Description

Many of the world’s top engineers and scientists come together in our Water business because they view a community’s interaction with water a bit differently—as a single holistic system, rather than unconnected networks divided by jurisdictional boundaries. Working throughout the hydrologic cycle, we are delivering sustainable solutions to make sure water is where it should be and available when needed. Our experts guide our work with scientific rigor, an innovative spirit, and a vision for growth. Every day, we help communities improve, reuse, and protect this precious resource for future generations. By 2025 we’re hiring 2,000 people (like you) to join our team. Grow with us, H2O+U.

Your Opportunity

At Stantec you can work with some of the best technical people in the world on projects you can be proud of! We pride ourselves on bringing a focus on technology-forward solutions to the challenges our communities face in the world of water.

Stantec is seeking an experienced and versatile civil engineer with design and construction experience including paving, grading, erosion control, stormwater, potable water design and sanitary sewer design and other site development and water/sewer conveyance elements. This is an opportunity for a driven individual to serve as a civil lead on local and regional water treatment, wastewater treatment, and conveyance projects, supporting critical client infrastructure improvement projects throughout Idaho and Stantec’s Northwest and Southwest Regions.

Are you ready to advance your career with a collaborative team that puts people first, lives its corporate values, and works on some of the most challenging water projects in the world? Join us!
