I'm supporting a long-established international engineering consultancy that is looking to bring an experienced Civil Design Engineer into its growing infrastructure team based in Kingston upon Thames. This is an excellent opportunity to work within a global organisation recognised for delivering practical, efficient engineering solutions across major projects worldwide.

The company has offices across the UK, Australia, India, Argentina, Jordan, and Morocco, offering exceptional exposure to diverse project work and a strong internal culture centred on engineering excellence.

The Role

You'll be supported with ongoing professional development, including ICE membership progression and structured technical training.

• Strong software capability across analytical and design tools
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills
• Awareness of safety, quality, sustainability and compliance within engineering design
• Ability to work onsite Monday-Friday, with flexibility available after probation

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Work on major, high-value infrastructure projects
• Supportive and diverse technical environment
• Clear pathway for career progression and ICE support
• Strong engineering-led culture focused on simplicity, quality and efficiency

Benefits

• Competitive salary (up to £50k, depending on experience)
• Health insurance & critical illness salary protection
