Location: Cardiff, 3 days in office per week

I am working with a well-established multidisciplinary engineering consultancy to appoint a Principal or Associate Engineer into their Cardiff-based civils and structures team. With a strong pipeline of rail and infrastructure work secured, this is a key hire to support both technical delivery and team development.

You will work across a diverse portfolio of projects including bridge design and refurbishment, station upgrades, minor works frameworks, airport infrastructure and temporary works schemes.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a growing team within a wider business, offering exposure to all aspects of engineering consultancy - from technical delivery through to client interaction and business development.
