I've previously worked for SWECO, BWB, Fairhurst, Mason Clark Associates, all small and medium sized multi disciplinary civils consultants doing. They do allsort from Large Highways inc bridges, development - resi & commercial, sewage treatment.... Curently work for JBA, more flood defence stuff.

Others like Atkins, Arrups, Mott Macdonald would be a good shout. Also Contractors like BAM and Kier have design sections.

why does he need training abroad?

you`ll need to look at the multinational copmpanies. i cant believe many will send a traineee abroad for a jolly.

theyll have much more luck UK based. If they fancy getting into surface water management/flood risk and dont mind small/diverse projects let me know.

I think he's saying he wants to come to the UK to work for 4 months, not the other way around.

Lot's of big energy/oil/gas projects at the moment, possibly not the most interesting from a civils perspective as it'll just be leveling/grading/piling type designs but Fluor, ENI, Wood, Bechtel, Worley Parsons, KBR are all struggling to recruit enough engineers at the moment.

I'd be looking at large international companies so that if it goes well then there may be a role wherever they want to work at the end of their course.  With that in mind Ramboll and Arup might fit the bill.
