Amey has announced a major engineering recruitment drive to support growth in transport, energy and nuclear sectors.
The company plans to recruit approximately 600 professionals over the next 18 months, as part of a targeted investment in the skills and capabilities required to support future growth across priority infrastructure markets, such as highways, energy and nuclear, which will bring additional expertise into the business to support major project delivery and help clients respond to the long-term challenges of infrastructure resilience, renewal and enhancement.
The recruitment drive, says Amey, will strengthen the Consulting business’ engineering capability and support its expanding portfolio of work.
The campaign will initially target approximately 200 new hires during 2026, with opportunities available nationwide across a broad range of Consulting roles including in technical, engineering, project delivery and specialist disciplines.
Alongside experienced hires, Amey will welcome a further 100 engineering graduates and apprentices in September, underlining its commitment to developing future talent across the infrastructure sector. Through its early careers programme, they will gain practical experience on live projects, supported by structured development, professional mentoring and opportunities to build the skills, certifications and experience needed for thriving long-term careers.
Gert Vermeiren, Engineering Sector Director, Amey, said: “We are entering an exciting period of growth, driven by increasing demand for the skills, insight and expertise needed to plan, design and manage critical national infrastructure.
“As our pipeline of projects continue to grow, we are looking to attract talented people who can help us deliver complex projects that create lasting value for local communities and the wider economy. For those joining the business, this is an opportunity to work on some of the UK’s most significant infrastructure programmes while building a rewarding career, supported by opportunities for growth and professional development here at Amey.”
