Job description

About the role:

We are looking for an experienced Structural Design Engineer / Structural Designer to lead and execute structural calculations, 3D modeling, and design detailing. This role goes beyond CAD drafting—we are seeking a hands‑on technical designer capable of performing structural assessments, designing steel/aluminium connections, and ensuring structural stability across engineering projects.

Key responsibilities:

• Perform structural calculations, load assessments (including wind loads and imposed loads), and connection designs for aluminium and steel structures

• Develop detailed 3D models and BIM workflows using Tekla Structures and/or Revit

• Produce accurate general arrangement (GA) drawings, fabrication drawings, and detailed connection drawings using AutoCAD

• Prepare precise Bills of Materials (BOM) and material take-offs to support project estimation and procurement

• Ensure all structural designs maintain overall stability and adhere strictly to industry design codes and project specifications

Job Qualifications:

• Must be an experienced design engineer/designer capable of handling structural calculations and design logic (not purely a CAD drafter)

• Proven background in structural engineering, structural design, and load analysis for steel and/or aluminium structures

• Proficient in AutoCAD

• Strong working knowledge of Tekla Structures and/or Revit (3D Modeling & BIM)

• Experience working with Eurocodes / UK Standards is a strong advantage

• Deep understanding of wind loading, imposed loads, connection design, and overall structural stability principles
