"I used to be a teacher so I think co-ordinator and trainer are pretty accurate descriptions! And definitely the developer - I love getting stuck in with problem solving. I like the initial options stage of a project, where you can be really creative thinking of solutions, and getting stuck in with calculations and software to find the final answers."

"I'm usually working on design and maintenance of highway structures like bridges. I review existing information, use AutoCAD to draw structures, undertake calculations on excel and model performance on various software packages. I sometimes visit structures or sites in my Hi-Vis PPE and this involves assessing risks.I enjoy problem solving and improving efficiency using technology. I also enjoy finding ways to make the world a better place in a sustainable way.The starting salary for the graduate scheme is around £26,500."

"I took A-levels in Maths, Physics and Chemistry. I studied Civil and Structural Engineering at University of Sheffield. I spent 3 years teaching secondary science before starting a graduate programme in civil engineering at Amey."

"I have a young son and love spending time with him. Since he was born, I've started volunteering at a local sling library and taken on a local nappy library (give it a google if you're not sure what these are!).I spend time out in the Peak District as often as I can - it's great for climbing. I often cycle to work.I get involved in STEM activities including EDT summer schools and university activities to help inspire people to follow a career path into engineering."

"I'm currently working on designing some repairs to a bridge near Manchester which supports the M60. Mostly this includes reviewing other people's inspections, and the initial drawing, to make a model to try replicate the current situation. This uses different software packages and specifications such as Eurocodes. Once I've come up with a design and done some calculations, I sketch up the design in AutoCAD and ask my colleagues to review my work."
