Job description

Joining Arup

Arup’s purpose, shared values and collaborative approach have set us apart for over 80 years, guiding how we shape a better world.

Our Bridge and Civil Structures team delivers resilient, safe and innovative infrastructure across a wide range of environments. Working closely with engineers, technicians and specialists, we support projects across heavy civil infrastructure, rail, roads and streets, partnering with both public and private sector clients across the region.

From long‑term resilience programmes to major upgrades and renewals, our teams collaborate across disciplines to develop practical, buildable solutions that improve infrastructure and communities.

The Opportunity

We are seeking an enthusiastic Bridge / Civil Structures Engineering Technician to join our growing team across the North West & Yorkshire.

You will play a hands‑on role in producing RC detailing, 2D drawings and 3D models across all stages of project delivery — from early concept design through to detailed construction. Working closely with multidisciplinary teams, you will support BIM coordination, contribute to high‑quality deliverables and help ensure outputs meet client and project requirements.
