Senior 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

How to Write a Semiconductor Job Ad That Attracts the Right People

Semiconductors sit at the heart of modern technology. From consumer electronics and automotive systems to AI, defence, telecoms and advanced manufacturing, semiconductor professionals play a critical role in designing, fabricating and testing the components that power the global economy. Yet many employers struggle to attract the right candidates. Semiconductor job adverts often receive either very few applications or a high volume of unsuitable ones. Experienced engineers and scientists frequently ignore adverts that feel vague, generic or disconnected from the realities of semiconductor development and manufacturing. In most cases, the issue is not a shortage of talent — it is the clarity and quality of the job advert. Semiconductor professionals are detail-oriented, process-driven and highly selective. A poorly written job ad signals weak technical understanding and unclear expectations. A well-written one signals credibility, precision and long-term intent. This guide explains how to write a semiconductor job ad that attracts the right people, improves applicant quality and strengthens your employer brand.

Maths for Semiconductor Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them)

If you are aiming for semiconductor jobs in the UK it is easy to assume you need a PhD level maths toolkit. In practice most roles do not. Whether you are targeting device engineering, process engineering, yield engineering, product engineering, test, reliability, RF, analogue, digital design, EDA, packaging or applications engineering, the maths you actually use clusters into a few workhorse areas. This guide strips it back to the topics that genuinely help you get hired & perform well on the job: Exponents, logs & “physics curves” (Arrhenius style behaviour, subthreshold, leakage) Calculus in plain English (rates, gradients, differential equations intuition) Device electrostatics & transport basics (Poisson equation intuition, drift & diffusion) Complex numbers for AC & RF (impedance, phasors, frequency response) Signals maths (Fourier intuition, bandwidth, noise density) Probability & statistics for manufacturing (SPC, DOE, yield models, reliability basics) Basic optimisation habits (fitting models, tuning trade-offs, making decisions with data) You will also get a 6 week plan, portfolio projects & a resources section you can follow without getting pulled into unnecessary theory.

Neurodiversity in Semiconductor Careers: Turning Different Thinking into a Superpower

Semiconductors sit quietly at the heart of everything: phones, cars, medical devices, satellites, data centres & everyday appliances. Behind every chip are people designing circuits, running fabs, testing wafers, modelling devices & solving problems most users never see. Those people are not all “textbook” engineers – & that’s a good thing. If you’re neurodivergent (for example living with ADHD, autism or dyslexia), you may have been told your brain is “too distracted”, “too literal” or “too disorganised” for a high-precision, high-reliability industry. In reality, many of the traits that made school or traditional offices hard can be huge strengths in semiconductor work: intense focus on detail, pattern-spotting in test data, creative thinking around yield & process issues. This guide is written for semiconductor job seekers in the UK. We’ll cover: What neurodiversity means in a semiconductor context How ADHD, autism & dyslexia strengths map to chip & fab roles Workplace adjustments you can ask for under UK law How to talk about your neurodivergence in applications & interviews By the end, you should have a clearer sense of where you might thrive in the semiconductor industry – & how to turn “different thinking” into a genuine career advantage.
