Job description

Flexible / Home-Based – Betts Associates

• Nr Chester

We’re looking for an experienced Structural Engineer to join us on a flexible, home-based basis — working in a way that fits around you.

You’ll conduct site inspections and structural surveys, and prepare reports and designs for remedial work, drawing on real depth of hands‑on experience.

Our sites have a wide geographical spread, so your home location isn’t critical.

As this isn’t a full-time site role, an interest in passing on knowledge to our younger engineers — mentoring as much as delivering — will be a real advantage.

What We’re Looking For

• Chartered (MIStructE or MICE) — a surveyor or qualified site engineer will also be considered
• Comfortable working independently on site inspections, surveys and remedial reports
• Flexible, home-based working to suit your own pattern
• An interest in mentoring and developing our junior engineers

In return, you’ll have genuine flexibility over how and when you work, autonomy on your own inspections and reports, and a real opportunity to shape how our junior engineers develop.
