🌊 Senior Flood Engineer – Build Your Legacy, Not Just Your Career

• Immerse and Lead: From day one, you’ll lead diverse projects — quoting, tendering, reviewing models, and delivering high-quality outcomes. You’ll be supported, but trusted to drive results.
• Mentor and Grow: Within your first six months, you’ll begin mentoring junior engineers, transitioning from technical expert to team leader. You’ll play a key role in shaping the next generation of flood modellers.

You’re exceptional at what you do, building RORB and TUFLOW models, writing tenders, managing projects from subdivisions to major flood studies, but you’re craving more.

• Software & Analysis: Strong GIS capability (QGIS, ArcGIS); HEC-RAS experience a bonus.
• Project Scoping & Management: Proven ability to quote, tender, and manage multiple concurrent projects, from small-scale developments to complex flood studies.
• Hydrological & Hydraulic Modelling: Expert-level skills in RORB and TUFLOW (1D/2D).
• Technical Reporting: Ability to translate complex model outputs into clear, actionable advice for clients and stakeholders.

Imagine a year from now: you’re a recognised leader within a growing consultancy, mentoring a talented team, winning work, shaping strategy, and directly sharing in the success you helped build.

This isn’t a “sink or swim” environment, it’s a “we’ll teach you to swim like a champion” environment.

• Build and Own: You’ll be actively involved in business development and strategic growth, helping shape SWM’s future. For the right person, this path includes partnership or significant leadership opportunities.
• Flexibility to work hybrid or remote, with autonomy and impact.
• Stagnation: Career growth stalls while the same types of projects repeat.
• Real influence and ownership opportunities.
• A trusted leadership team that invests in your growth.
