You’ll contribute to high‑impact UK projects, applying both your engineering expertise across a range of technically demanding sites.

• Designing and specifying structural engineering solutions aligned to British Standards, Eurocodes and project deliverables.
• Producing drawings, specifications, reports, site surveys, and construction‑stage support.
• Checking calculations and drawings to ensure quality, compliance, and buildability.
• Collaborating closely with architects, civil engineers, mechanical/electrical teams, and project managers.
• Reviewing subcontractor designs and ensuring technical alignment with project intent.
• Contributing to fee estimates, scopes, tender reviews and change control documents.
• Supporting and mentoring early‑career engineers and championing best practice across the team.

 

What You’ll Bring

• Solid experience delivering design in at least one relevant sector - power, life sciences, industry, or similar complex environments.
• Solid experience working in design for a design consultancy.
• Proficiency in MasterSeries, STAAD, Tedds or similar analysis tools.
• Strong understanding of CDM Regulations, UK technical standards, and structural design codes.
• Ability to train and mentor graduate engineers
• Clear, confident communication -  able to translate complex engineering into simple, actionable ideas.

 

Why You’ll Love It Here

• Work on high‑impact and complex projects shaping the UK’s most innovative sectors.
• Join a supportive engineering community that values technical excellence, continuous learning, and collaboration.
• Opportunities to develop leadership skills and mentor others.
• Real responsibility, real visibility, and real career progression.
• Support in reaching chartership and beyond!

If you're ready to engineer structures that power industries, enable scientific breakthroughs, and drive the next wave of industrial innovation - we’d love to hear from you.

This role is perfect for someone who has been working as an engineer for some time after completing their graduate programme who is seeking support to get to chartership and wants to gain exposure to more complex projects.
