What our people say

“My career at Binnies has taken me to four different continents and I have been given the opportunity to grow and develop as I have progressed with the company.”

When I joined Binnies as a graduate, I was given plenty of opportunities to work in exciting locations. As I have progressed, Binnies has continued to provide me with new challenges, such as supporting me in becoming an All Reservoirs Panel Engineer.

‘’Binnies have supported me to progress in my career, opening and leading a new office and growing my own team.’’

I joined Binnies in 2021 to open our Birmingham office and diversify our service offering. I’ve joined a national leadership team, been to COP26 and most importantly been given the support and latitude to develop our Midlands Hub team based on the experience I’ve gained after nearly 20 years in the flood and coastal sector.

“At Binnies, the opportunities to expand your knowledge never stop!”

Learning is a lifelong journey. One of the most rewarding aspects of my career with Binnies is the opportunity to work on world-class water and wastewater treatment projects throughout the project lifecycle, from conceptual studies and design, to commissioning and handover. All this is possible through Binnies’ strong culture of mentorship and access to a global pool of technical expertise.

“The people at Binnies create a great working atmosphere: they want you to succeed in your career!”

Being part of the Binnies delivery team has enabled me to work through the full project life cycle. Gaining experience across the Binnies UK business lines in the earlier days of my career has been invaluable as it has given me the knowledge to understand a broad range of civil engineering problems and their solutions.

Binnies has provided me with flexible working hours, enabling better work–life balance, while also supporting me to progress to become a technical director. It’s a challenging role, but it is satisfying to work on schemes that improve the environment and people’s lives – for example, the largest flood protection scheme in Europe.
