Together we are Trusted to Serve Scotland. It’s not every job where you make a difference for the people of Scotland. But it’s what’s behind every job here. Our work keeps Scotland’s water flowing, from reservoir to tap - and from sewer to treatment plant. At Scottish Water, we prioritise continuous investment in water and wastewater infrastructure to ensure that these essential services run for homes, businesses and communities across the country. Over the coming years, we have planned £8.3 billion investment to upgrade infrastructure, improve river and coastal water quality, reduce emissions and strengthen Scotland’s resilience to climate change. This work is of national importance and these challenges are no small feat. The engineering decisions made now will be built into assets that need to perform reliably for decades to come. This continuous drive to improve the service we deliver is why we are looking for an experienced Civil Engineer to bring valuable engineering insight, and support technical designs through planning, development and construction; to ultimately improve the quality, consistency and long-term performance of assets delivered across our capital investment programme. What you’ll do You’ll work across a broad range of water and wastewater projects in our capital programme; getting involved at the initial stages where early design decisions are taking shape, tested and agreed, all the way through to live construction of our assets. This role is about engineering judgement. You’ll review designs, be involved in technical innovation and discussion within our industry and ultimately help project teams work through complex engineering problems - allowing for successfully formed design which can be built into assets that will perform safely and reliably for decades to come. You won’t be tied to a single programme. You’ll be weighing up service risk, whole-life cost, carbon, constructability and safety throughout projects within the portfolio of work we deliver; spanning regions and asset types, including both large scale investment and capital maintenance work. This gives you sight of the breadth of challenges and emerging risks faced across the wider sector, but importantly also of the opportunities to contribute to the improvement of how things are done, not just on one project, but across the organisation. At Scottish Water we work hard to deliver our service; however, we continuously strive to better what we do - this is where your experience can make that difference. A key part of the role is shaping how standards are applied in practice. You’ll work with our Scottish Water engineering Requirements daily, helping ensure that they are appropriate, robust, adhered to, and support in the assessment of waivers where needed. This is where skilful engineering judgment in decisions - big or small - makes a big difference. You’ll spend a lot of time talking to people. Delivery teams with construction targets. Consultants with different specialisms. Operational colleagues who know all there is to know about how our assets behave once their built. Your role is to bring in those perspectives, and together with your own judgement, provide clear, experienced engineering guidance where it’s needed. In doing all this, you’ll help build capability across the business, sharing technical insights with colleagues, learning from industry challenges and reduce problems or non-compliance. Safety is fundamental, and you’ll be expected to question designs and approaches where risks can be removed or reduced at the very source. What you’ll need You’ll bring solid civil engineering experience and the confidence to apply your judgement in complex, high-impact situations. You’ll have: • A degree in civil engineering, and be a Chartered Engineer or working towards chartership, • Experience of water and wastewater infrastructure, with a strong understanding of design and construction principles and the regulatory environment, • The ability to review, challenge and provide assurance within civil engineering designs across different stages of project development You’ll be comfortable working with standards and requirements, including supporting their ongoing development and assessing waivers against these where needed. You’ll be able to weigh up technical, safety and regulatory considerations and justify your reasoning clearly where needed. This role involves influencing and supporting successful design rather than directing. You’ll need to communicate well with a wide range of stakeholders, from operational teams and delivery partners to consultants and planners. It is important to be able to challenge constructively and professionally. Character is important to us. Across the whole of Scottish Water, we look for people who are Bold, Responsible, Inspiring and Caring. (And you can expect these characteristics to make an appearance in your interview with us…) Looking out for you While the work we do is important, we know it’s not the only thing that matters. That’s why we make sure you have everything you need to find a good work-life balance. You’ll get plenty of time to recharge with 38 days of holiday every year (including public holidays). And you can even buy five more if you need a little extra time. You can also take paid time off to volunteer in your community. When it comes to major life events we have family-friendly policies around adoption, maternity, and parental leave. And for the everyday? We embrace flexible working. For your future, there’s our pension (the ‘know-what-you’ll-get-when-you-retire’ kind), as well as life assurance. As for some nice extras? You can expect an annual company bonus. Not to mention access to SW Splash - handy rewards that can save you money on holidays, bills, and shopping. The not-so-small print This role will be a Grade 7. If you’re new to Scottish Water, you’ll join us on a starting salary of £44,030. Performance-driven pay progression would then allow you to move through the range to a maximum of £55,000. If you’re interested in this role - or know someone else who might be - we’ll be accepting applications until midnight on 17th February 2026. We operate Balanced Hybrid working at Scottish Water and we encourage people to work half their time in a Scottish Water location. You’ll come together with the team in person for a monthly meeting in Edinburgh, and you’ll spend two to three days a week working alongside Technical Support and Assurance colleagues in a Scottish Water office. Job offers at Scottish Water are conditional, and will be confirmed on completion of our pre-employment screening, e.g. referencing, criminal record checks, license checks, etc. Screening is conducted on our behalf by a third party, and must be completed before your start date. Don’t worry - we’ll only start these checks once you’ve accepted an offer.

This is more than just a summer job – it’s an opportunity to make a meaningful impact. As part of our team, you’ll play a key role in delivering essential services and infrastructure that help Scotland flourish every day. You’ll be joining us at a fascinating time, as we transform into a more agile, innovative organisation that delivers outstanding service, provides great value for money, and works in an environmentally sustainable way that goes beyond Net Zero. Graduating in 2027? Kickstart your career with a 12-week summer placement and start building your future today. What you’ll do As a Zero Emissions Carbon Data Science Intern, you will dive into real-world challenges centred on the core of our Net Zero reporting. You will become familiar with the intricacies of our Net Zero reporting, assist in data analysis, identify areas for improvement, and contribute to the streamlining of emission data reporting. Your strong analytical brain will give you the ability to gather, interpret, and analyse complex data. Utilising tools such as Excel and Power BI, you’ll be able to extract information from large datasets and multiple sources to drive informed decision-making. You'll have a chance to support on interpreting and distilling complex technical information into clear reports and messaging, which you’ll need to communicate to a wide audience in a way that can be understood. You’ll be someone who builds strong, effective working relationships with stakeholders at all levels. This is a chance to work on elements that support our Net Zero targets, improve our data experience and see how a business records emission data in real time. What’s more, you’ll contribute to broader sustainability projects, such as climate change adaptation and biodiversity, supporting Scottish Water’s comprehensive sustainability goals. This internship offers a unique opportunity to tackle real-world challenges, develop valuable skills, and make a tangible difference in our journey toward sustainability. This is a paid summer internship, with an hourly rate of £13.45, aligned with the Real Living Wage. The role is typically full-time (35 hours per week), though we’re open to discussing flexible working patterns where possible. For a 35-hour week, the equivalent annual salary would be approximately £24,574, pro-rated for the length of the internship. What you’ll need You’ll be in the penultimate year of university, or maybe about to do a Masters. Either way, you’ll be on course for at least a 2:2 degree. And it goes without saying that you will be available for the full placement time: 12 weeks. You’ll be studying towards a degree in an environmental or data-led subject, such as Environmental Science, Sustainability, Data Science, or a related field. A strong interest in data analysis is essential, as you’ll be working with both environmental data and sustainability projects. Most of all, you’ll bring curiosity, enthusiasm, and a real desire to learn – along with the motivation to apply what you’re studying in a practical, real-world environment. You’ll need to live within commuting distance of Edinburgh or Stepps as this role will be aligned to one of our key office locations (Fairmilehead and The Bridge). In terms of essential requirements? That’s it. But here’s the thing… We receive thousands of applications for our internship roles each year. So what helps candidates stand out? Here are a few things we love to see: • CVs that tell us more than just your grades. Show us what you’ve learned, what interests you, and what motivates you., • Cover letters that explain why Scottish Water – and why this particular internship appeals to you., • Applications that demonstrate our values: Bold, Responsible, Inspiring and Caring. Looking out for you While the work we do is important, it’s not the only thing that matters. That’s why we support a healthy work-life balance and flexible ways of working where possible. You’ll gain meaningful experience, build your professional network, and get a real feel for what a future career at Scottish Water could look like – all while being supported by experienced colleagues who want you to succeed. What happens next? The closing date for applications is Sunday 8th February. Please submit your CV and a cover letter (maximum 500 words) as part of your application. If shortlisted, final interviews will take place during February 23rd to March 13th and yes, you’ll get the chance to ask us plenty of questions too. If you accept a place on the programme, you’ll complete pre-employment screening during the Spring, including a criminal record check. All interns will start together in June for a 12-week Summer Internship, finishing at the end of August. You’ll take part in an induction, meet fellow interns and colleagues, learn about the organisation, visit operational sites, and hopefully have a lot of fun along the way.
