• You'll join a friendly, supportive team where collaboration, sustainability, and learning are at the heart of the culture.

Key Responsibilities

• Take the lead as a Senior Structural Engineer, managing projects or major parts of larger schemes from start to finish.
• Support and mentor junior engineers, helping them grow in confidence and capability.
• Develop practical and creative design solutions across steel, concrete, timber, and masonry.
• Work directly with clients, architects, and other consultants to turn ideas into reality.
• Contribute to project planning, proposals, and the commercial side of consultancy.

What They're Looking For

• Chartered status (CEng, MICE, MIStructE) with at least 6 years' experience.
• Solid technical design skills, with the ability to work from first principles.
• Experience using structural analysis software (GSA, SCIA, ETABS) and 3D modelling tools (Rhino, Grasshopper).
