We'd love to hear from you if you have:

  • Strong understanding of infrastructure design (roads, utilities, drainage, etc.).
  • Proven experience working on large-scale projects in the Middle East is highly desirable.
  • Proficiency in civil engineering design software and tools (e.g., Civil 3D, AutoCAD, InRoads, StormCAD).
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
  • Professional membership with a recognized engineering institution (e.g., ICE, ASCE) is an advantage.

What's in it for you?

What if we can have work-life balance? What if we can be rewarded in ways that support our individual needs? What if we can be accepted for who we are? Here at WSP – we can!
