We assist clients in harmonising design drivers through innovative engineering, architecture, and development services.

What you’ll be doing: This role offers career progression as a Structural Engineer within our reputable industry-leading team, involved in residential foundation and superstructure projects, including low and medium-rise housing and commercial developments.

• Manage staff and coordinate with other consultants.
• Conduct site visits, structural surveys, investigations, and repair schemes for issues such as fires and foundation problems.

Who we’re looking for: You should have a degree in Civil or Structural Engineering (or equivalent), be chartered with ICE, IStructE, or progressing towards chartership.

Additionally you will:

• Have experience in structural investigations and reporting for residential and commercial buildings, including tall structures, with various materials and forms.
• Be experienced in identifying, reporting, and repairing building defects.
• Be familiar with structural safety assessments and the Building Safety Act.
• Have design experience in foundations, masonry, concrete, steel, and timber structures per Eurocodes.
• Be knowledgeable about residential construction, including traditional and framed structures.
• Ideally, be familiar with Tekla (Tekla Designer and Tedds) and AutoCAD/Revit.
• Previous management experience is advantageous.
• Be decisive, motivated, proactive, and innovative.

What’s in it for you? We are an accredited training provider supporting professional development at all levels.
