Civic is a team of system thinkers in the built environment, creating positive impact for people, places and the planet.

We want our work to have a positive impact on the environment — helping people to live healthier, happier lives while respecting natural limits. We build without destroying, explore without exploiting, and seek to reuse rather than just consume. Above all, we listen, learn, and aim to create a lasting legacy.

Thriving together, today we have a team of over 200 members working across the UK, all united by our creative belief, bringing art and science together to solve problems. Our award-winning practice has studios in Manchester, London, Leeds, Glasgow, Edinburgh and Dublin.

Be a system thinker. Be a Civic Graduate.

You will be contributing to the design and engineering of a wide variety of interesting and exciting projects throughout the UK and Ireland – from new and existing buildings to the streets, infrastructure and public realm that connect them. You will have the opportunity to collaborate with industry experts, award-winning designers, archaeologists, sustainability specialists, and high-profile public and private clients.

As a Civic Graduate you will develop both your technical and managerial skills.

We’re looking for talented and motivated graduates with qualifications in Civil and Transport Engineering.

The ideal candidate will be collaborative, curious, ingenious, helpful, and passionate about the built environment and making a positive impact for people, planet and place.

Our commitment to DEI

Civic is made up of brilliant people. Each of us is unique, whether in terms of our background, personal characteristics, experience, skills or motivations. And we value our people for the differences they bring to the table. These differences - this diversity - is powerful.

Nurturing an inclusive culture helps each of us to benefit from a wider range of these different perspectives, experiences and skills. We believe that this creates a happier, more productive working environment for us all.

We encourage applications from individuals who bring diverse perspectives and are passionate about contributing to an equitable and respectful work environment.
