Graduate Environmental Physics & Wind Consultant

The Opportunity

A large proportion of our work focusses on the control of indoor thermal environments, design of urban spaces to improve liveability and assessment of wind impacts on structures. However, we also use our core skills to support Arup in a diverse range of areas, such as the design of hydraulic structures, electromagnetic systems and offshore wind farms. We routinely deliver cross-disciplinary projects with other engineers and specialists in Arup; a broad understanding of how our work interacts and affects wider design and engineering considerations is key to our success.

Your role will be to undertake analysis and design on behalf of clients or in collaboration with other teams within Arup. You will use analytical and numerical methods such as CFD and dynamic thermal modelling as well as wind tunnel and other forms of testing to inform the design process. You will regularly interact with architects, developers and engineers on projects in diverse sectors including buildings, energy, industry and transport.

Is this role right for you?

For this opportunity, we are seeking the following qualifications, skills and attributes:

• Masters or bachelor's level degree, ideally in engineering science, mechanical, civil, or aeronautical engineering (2:1/60% or higher or equivalent) but other degree courses with an emphasis on mathematics and modelling will also be considered.
• A keen interest in fluid dynamics and how it impacts the built environment.
• A keen interest in numerical, statistical and/or physical modelling.
• Experience with coding languages, such as Python or MATLAB is an advantage.

We're looking for people who are curious and ready to evolve how you think and work. Our strength comes from how we respect, share and connect our diverse experiences, perspectives and ideas. At Arup, you belong to an extraordinary collective – in which we encourage individuality to thrive. If you can share your knowledge and ideas and encourage others to do the same; whilst having a desire to deliver excellent services for clients – we'd like to hear from you.

You should be able to start this opportunity in September 2025.
