Flood Risk & Hydraulic Modeller Lincolnshire 3 days on site per week 43,929 - 48,456 + Local Government Pension Scheme + 9-Day Fortnight Most modellers never get to see whether their work actually made a difference. In this role, you will. You'll be building the hydraulic models that help shape major infrastructure investment decisions across critical drainage networks, pumping stations and flood risk assets. More importantly, you'll see those same projects progress from survey and modelling through to funding approval, construction and delivery. Few modelling roles offer that level of influence, ownership and visibility. This is a genuinely specialist modelling appointment. The vast majority of your time will be focused on hydraulic and hydrological modelling, supporting a significant ongoing programme of capital investment and asset refurbishment. You won't simply be reviewing consultant reports or inherited models. You'll be responsible for developing and building the models that provide the technical evidence behind real engineering, operational and investment decisions. Working across a variety of complex catchments, you'll use topographical survey information to develop hydrology, assess catchment behaviour and understand how proposed interventions will impact water levels, drainage performance and flood risk. Your modelling will support major pumping station refurbishment projects, flood risk infrastructure improvements, funding applications and long-term investment planning. Every piece of analysis has a purpose and every recommendation has the potential to influence how future projects are delivered. Unlike many consultancy environments, you'll have the opportunity to see the direct impact of your work. You'll follow projects from the earliest stages through to completion, gaining a genuine understanding of how your modelling contributes to protecting homes, businesses, agricultural land and critical infrastructure. You'll work closely with engineers and operational teams who rely on your expertise to make informed decisions about some of the most important infrastructure assets in the region. What really sets this opportunity apart is the wider purpose behind the work. Every model you build, every scenario you test and every recommendation you make contributes towards reducing flood risk and improving resilience for local communities. It's rare to find a role where you can draw such a clear connection between your technical expertise and the positive impact it has on the people and places around you. We're keen to hear from experienced hydraulic, hydrological or flood risk modellers who are comfortable building and developing models themselves. Experience using HEC-RAS or TUFLOW is essential, together with a strong understanding of catchment behaviour, hydrology, water level management and the factors that influence modelling outputs. Experience working with GIS, LIDAR, topographical survey data and environmental datasets would also be highly beneficial. Beyond the role itself, Lincolnshire offers an excellent quality of life. With a lower cost of living than many parts of the UK, beautiful countryside, open landscapes and stunning coastline, it's a place where you can enjoy a better work-life balance without compromising on the scale, complexity or importance of the projects you're involved in. In return, you'll join an organisation with a long-term infrastructure investment programme, a strong sense of purpose and a culture that genuinely supports work-life balance. Alongside a salary of 43,929 - 48,456, you'll benefit from membership of the Local Government Pension Scheme, hybrid working, generous annual leave and a nine-day fortnight, giving you every other Friday off. Most modelling roles end when the report is finished. This is one where you'll still be seeing the results years later. If you're looking for a role where modelling remains at the heart of what you do, where your expertise directly influences major investment decisions and where you can see the lasting impact of your work on communities, infrastructure and the environment, we'd love to hear from you.
