Joshua Evans BEng (Hons) IEng MICE

Barry,Vale of Glamorgan

Summary

With over 7 years of experience within the water industry, I have had the opportunity to demonstrate core competencies across potable and sewer pipeline design, concrete structure design, and project management. My ability within the Civil Engineering field was formally recognised when I received Incorporated Engineer Status on behalf of the Institution of Civil Engineers. I am naturally a team player and want those around me to succeed, whether that be through me providing support when I have been the lead designer on programmes of work or with their professional development as a part of the ICE.
