Starting full time in early Feb 2021, we offer two and four-year Graduate Programs that will see you rotating through key business areas.
In each rotation, you'll be overcoming real-life challenges and taking on meaningful assignments. You'll make new contacts, work on different projects and most importantly, bring about a positive change.
We're excited to offer opportunities to graduates from a range of disciplines.
The two-year Engineering Graduate Program is designed for emerging professional Engineers who know they want to pursue a career in the water industry and want to find out everything about it.
These experiences are designed to help you understand where your particular skills and interests best fit within the different types of roles that are on offer – from modelling to analysis, optimisation to design, corporate risk to procurement – one of the hardest decisions you have to make as an Urban Grad Engineering is where to begin your career in the water industry. This program will help you work that out.
For the first time, we also offer a four-year program for Engineers (Civil, Mech and Elec) focused on a career in infrastructure construction.
We are in the unique position to be able to offer you rotations in every aspect of construction from feasibility studies, through design and build to hand over of major infrastructure projects. We do this by working side by side with our design and contractor partners and we offer rotations in their teams on-site as well as ours. The exposure to all sides of infrastructure construction in this program is unrivalled!
Our third Urban Grad program is our hugely successful Data Analytic graduate program that kicked off in 2020. If you love all things data and you know how to bring it to life to hear the story it is telling you – we want you!
You will have the opportunity to work in four 6-month rotations around the business to analyse data and work with us to implement changes based on your findings.
We're looking for Maths, IT, Business or Commerce graduates for these opportunities.

Day to day responsibilities change due to the nature of my work, but generally a meeting or two along with implementing incremental steps to help the business improve without disrupting day to day activities.
