Job description

Graduate - Vertical Transportation Engineer - London

See it differently

You see the world through a unique lens and that’s exactly what we need. We embrace how you see things differently – it’s essential for creating a sustainable future.

Arup is a global consultancy with advisory and technical expertise across more than 150 disciplines. We guide, plan and design the future of the built environment. Globally, each year we recruit hundreds of graduates and students who help us see things differently and solve the most complex challenges facing our clients, climate and communities.

The Opportunity

Beyond standard areas of responsibility, Arup expects its vertical transportation engineers to become creative partners in the design process working closely with architects to ensure the movement of people and goods around buildings in an efficient and co-ordinated manner. If you have curiosity, personal drive and an appreciation of (or a willingness to learn about) the Vertical Transportation sector, we would love to hear from you.

At Arup, we are leaders rather than followers in technical advances and sustainability. Through in-house research and development and a host of previous cutting-edge projects, we ensure that clients get the benefit, rather than the risk, of innovation. We look not only at the capital cost of new installations but the space efficiency and energy costs to arrive at optimum solutions.

You will be working in a multi-disciplinary office, preparing designs in co-ordination with project teams as well as external architects, surveyors, contractors and clients for projects across a wide range of markets. You’ll have the opportunity to work on a massive variety of projects, located all over the world and at different project stages. You will gain a thorough understanding of the role of a design engineer, experience the use of software design programmes and visit sites to see the work undertaken while at the same time working towards chartership.

Is this role right for you?

For this opportunity, we are seeking the following qualifications, skills and attributes:

• Studying towards or have obtained an accredited Masters degree in a STEM subject, including Architectural Engineering
• An interest in architecture and the built environment
• Enthusiasm for a career in building design
• Organised approach to planning work and meeting deadlines
• Demonstrate a creative and inquisitive approach to problem solving
• The aptitude to work on your own initiative and to be proactive

To be considered for a graduate opportunity, your application must include a copy of your academic transcript and meet the following criteria:

• Full working rights in the country of application
• No more than 12 months of full-time experience in a comparable role

Alongside your degree, we look for the following core attributes;

Changemakers: A passion for sustainable development and creating a better world is key.

Innovative minds: We’re looking for critical thinkers who embrace new ideas and challenge the status quo.

Growth seekers: You have a growth mindset, always eager to learn and explore new ways of working.

Adaptable adventurers: You’re ready to take on any challenge that comes your way.

Please note, in the event of high applicant volume, this role may be closed ahead of the advertised closing date. Early application is recommended.
