Job description

Graduate Structural Engineer

Sheffield, with occasional site travel across the UK
£28,000 - £40,000 + Travel Expenses + Great Training + Clear Progression to Associate

This is an excellent opportunity to join a busy and well‑established structural engineering practice that works across a wide variety of sectors and materials. Where they offer in‑depth training and clear progression through the team to Associate.

Are you a Graduate Structural Engineer who is genuinely committed to building a long‑term career in structural engineering? Are you looking for a role where you'll gain exposure to a broad range of projects, receive hands‑on training, and work closely with experienced engineers and architects?

The business delivers structural engineering services across retail, industrial, commercial, and residential projects, with a particular specialism in precast concrete. Despite being part of a larger organisation, the engineering team operates as a small, collaborative unit, giving you the chance to gain wide‑ranging project exposure and real responsibility early on in your career.

You will be involved in producing structural calculations, reports, and specifications, as well as attending meetings with clients and collaborating with other members of the design team. The role is primarily office‑based, with occasional UK‑wide site visits as required.

Therefore, the ideal candidate will hold a degree in Civil or Structural Engineering, have strong communication skills, and be motivated to develop as a professional engineer. Any relevant project experience will be considered, and training will be provided on specialist software such as Tekla Structures where needed.

This is a great opportunity to join a company that invests heavily in training and development, offering regular CPD, software training, and clear progression opportunities all the way up to Associate level.

The Role

• Produce structural calculations and technical reports
• Prepare specifications and assist with design development
• Liaise with architects and other consultants
• Support senior engineers on a wide range of projects
• Based out of their Sheffield office, with occasional site travel nationwide

The Person

• Degree in Civil or Structural Engineering
• Strong communication and report‑writing skills
• Ability to produce structural calculations
• Keen to build a long‑term career in structural engineering
• Commutable distance to their office and happy to travel when needed
