Process Engineer

As part of a continued service to a key client, we are looking to strengthen our Engineering team with a Senior Process Engineer. Based in a designated region, you will report directly to the Regional Discipline Lead (Process), which will catalyse your development.
Our challenging programme of work, across a variety of water and wastewater schemes, is expected to be in the region of £400M.
Offering hybrid working conditions and competitive remuneration packages, we strive to create and deliver practical, sustainable outcomes. Our engineers pioneer and perfect demonstrable solutions, while the variety and interest in our work provides a platform for our people to continue to master their subject and build fruitful, purposeful careers.
Responsibilities:
Produce high-quality standard process design documents and drawings, such as process calculations, P&IDs, PFD, Control Philosophy, ensuring compliance with health & safety requirements, specifications, and standards.
Ensure regulations and client standards are met on each project.
Conduct and co-ordinate studies related to Process Safety, a critical aspect of our design and a key client requirement.
Collaborate with other disciplines (civil, mechanical, EICA, environmental) to produce a complete design for various projects.
Assist other disciplines in their design production and technical specifications with any process and Process Safety input, developing trust and synergy within the team.
Provide active support to the delivery, commissioning, and management teams on technical issues, offering effective solutions.
Provide feedback to the Regional Discipline Lead and the Design Manager of each project.
Ensure effective design solutions considering the overall cost, including design time, material costs, erection costs, and any impact on other disciplines.
Assist the design manager at different design stages with deliverables.
Mentor graduates by providing support and guidance during their development scheme.
Maintain files and records throughout the duration of contracts.
Assist the management team in fostering a culture where customer satisfaction is recognized as key to achieving other objectives, with customers including both end users and internal departments.
Ensure designs fully consider all health and safety requirements.
Essential Skills and Experience:
Knowledge of clean water, wastewater, re-use, and/or sludge treatment process design; experience from other industries is highly valued.
Proven track record in developing process calculations such as mass balance, energy balance, and hydraulic calculations.
Ability to think clearly under pressure.
Strong organizational skills and the ability to meet deadlines and milestones on projects.
Excellent communication skills within the project team and with external stakeholders.
Ability to rationalize designs and produce cost-effective process solutions.
Ability to work effectively as part of a team

Semiconductor Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK semiconductor hiring has shifted from credentials & tool lists to capability‑driven evaluation that emphasises shipped silicon, yield/reliability gains, verification coverage, DFM/DFT maturity, robust bring‑up, safe/efficient fab operations and measurable business impact (PPM, YMS wins, time‑to‑yield, test cost, opex). This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews and how to prepare—especially for RTL/ASIC/SoC, analog/mixed‑signal/RF, verification, physical design, DFT/ATPG, product/test, failure analysis & reliability, process/device, equipment/maintenance, EHS, supply chain & operations roles. Who this is for: Digital design & verification engineers, PD & timing closure, analog/mixed‑signal/RF designers, DFT/ATPG/BIST, STA/PDN/SI/PI specialists, product/test engineers (ATE/DFT), yield/reliability & FA, device/process (FEOL/BEOL), equipment & facilities, EHS/compliance, supply‑chain/outsourcing (OSAT/Foundry), and programme/product managers across the UK semicon ecosystem.

Why Semiconductor Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Semiconductors power everything from smartphones to advanced computing to automotive systems. The UK semiconductor industry is expanding amid renewed global interest in chip sovereignty and lithography innovation. But the demands on professionals in semiconductor roles are shifting too. Today, semiconductor careers are no longer limited to clean-room engineers or circuit layout designers. Because chips affect data privacy, critical infrastructure, supply security and performance constraints, careers in this sphere are becoming deeply multidisciplinary. Knowledge in law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design is increasingly relevant to semiconductor engineering. In this article, we’ll explore why semiconductor careers in the UK are becoming more multidisciplinary, how those allied fields intersect with semiconductor work, and what job-seekers & employers can do to adapt.

Semiconductor Team Structures Explained: Who Does What in a Modern Semiconductor Department

The semiconductor industry underpins nearly all modern electronics—from smartphones and servers to sensors, automotive control systems, artificial intelligence accelerators, and more. In the UK it plays a growing role in chip design, MEMS, optoelectronics, and foundry services. Building performant, reliable, competitive semiconductor products requires tightly coordinated teams that span design, fabrication, testing, packaging, yield engineering, reliability, verification, quality, and supply chain. If you’re applying for semiconductor roles via SemiconductorJobs.co.uk or building a semiconductor team, this guide will help you understand the typical roles, how they collaborate across the product lifecycle, what skills UK employers expect, salary expectations, common challenges, and how to structure teams to succeed.
