The posting

Location: Peterborough (Hybrid) Salary: £44,328

Our Team

Anglian Water is investing £3bn in infrastructure across the East of England. Our Asset Standards Team ensures everything we build is safe, efficient and sustainable by defining our engineering standards and standard products.

The Role

This role is ideal for a Design or Infrastructure Engineer looking to broaden their impact.

Rather than delivering designs, you’ll use your experience to develop and improve standards, specifications and standard products that guide projects across the business.

Important – Please Read Before Applying

This role requires experience in engineering design or infrastructure delivery. If you do not have this background, this position is unlikely to be suitable.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and update engineering standards, specifications and design guidance
  • Support standard product development and continuous improvement
  • Collaborate with engineering, procurement and operational teams
  • Support governance and ensure standards are practical and compliant

What We’re Looking For

Essential:

  • Degree (or equivalent experience) in an engineering discipline
  • Experience in engineering design or infrastructure projects
  • Understanding of construction processes and technical standards
  • Strong communication and problem-solving skills

Desirable:

  • Water, utilities or regulated infrastructure experience
  • Exposure to standards, specifications or governance processes

Application Requirement

Please include a short supporting statement (max 1 page) covering:

  • Your experience in engineering design or infrastructure projects
  • Any experience with standards, specifications or design guidance
  • How your skills align if you don’t meet all requirements
  • Why you are excited to work for Anglian Water and shape our future standards

Applications without this information may not be progressed.

Why Join Us

  • Influence how major infrastructure is designed and delivered
  • Work on a £3bn investment programme
  • Develop your career in a collaborative, supportive team

Working Arrangements

Hybrid working with an average of 2–3 days per week in our Peterborough office, plus occasional site visits.

Benefits

As a valued employee, you’ll receive:

  • Personal private healthcare
  • Life cover – 8x annual salary paid to dependents
  • 26 days’ annual leave (rising with service) plus bank holidays, with flexibility to swap for alternative religious holidays
  • Flexible working options
  • Competitive pension scheme – Anglian Water double-matches your contributions up to 7%
  • Annual bonus scheme
  • Flexible benefits to support your wellbeing and lifestyle

Closing Date: 18th November 2026

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
