He specialised in the construction of heavy foundations and deep underpinnings, working on constructions such as Unilever House, South Africa House and The Kingsway Underpass London. He began his own practice as a consulting engineer in 1943, working particularly for the aviation industry[3] and was the overall designer for Gatwick Airport in the 1950s. He was made a Commander of the Order of the British Empire on 12 June 1958.[4] He was the president of the Institution of Structural Engineers 1947-1948,[5] and the first president of The Concrete Society.[6] Snow was invested as a knight bachelor on 11 November 1965.[7] He was the father of the Quantity Surveyor, Michael Snow and the artist, Peter Snow.
