CAD Designer – Environmental Projects
Location: Bury St Edmunds
Salary: Competitive, based on experience

I’m currently working with a contractor renowned for their expertise in designing and delivering water-based projects across the UK. Their portfolio includes lakes, reservoirs, wetland creation, river restoration, and desilting works. With a strong reputation for quality and a growing demand for turnkey solutions, they’re looking to expand their design team.

This is an exciting opportunity for a CAD Designer who wants to work on meaningful projects that combine creativity, technical precision, and environmental impact.

The Role:
As a CAD Designer, you’ll play a key role in delivering innovative designs for a range of environmental projects. You’ll work closely with internal teams and external consultants to produce high-quality drawings and contribute to the success of each project.

Key responsibilities include:

• Producing detailed designs and drawings using AutoCAD (Civils 3D experience is a bonus).
• Supporting the design process for projects such as lakes, rivers, wetlands, and reservoirs.
• Collaborating with specialists in areas such as ecology, hydrology, and environmental management.
• Contributing to the planning and permitting stages of projects where required.
• Ensuring designs meet client requirements and comply with relevant standards.

What We’re Looking For:

• Proficiency in AutoCAD is essential; Civils 3D experience is desirable but not mandatory.
• A background in environmental design, construction, or engineering is beneficial, but we’re open to candidates from other sectors with transferable CAD skills.
• An interest in waterscape or environmental design.
• Strong attention to detail, organizational skills, and the ability to work collaboratively.
• A proactive attitude and a desire to grow within the role.

Why This Role?
This is more than just a design role—it’s an opportunity to contribute to projects that have a tangible impact on the environment. You’ll have the chance to work across varied and meaningful projects while being part of a supportive and forward-thinking team.

If you have the CAD skills and are looking for an opportunity to work on unique and impactful projects, I’d love to hear from you.
