Graduate Structural Engineer – Glasgow

Your Impact In This Position
As a Graduate Structural Engineer, you’ll play a key role in supporting the technical delivery of projects. You’ll gain hands‑on experience across the full project lifecycle—from concept design to construction— and contribute to solutions that improve lives and shape cities.
You’ll collaborate across disciplines, attend client meetings and site visits, and produce technical drawings and calculations that meet industry standards. With mentorship from senior engineers and access to a structured development programme, you’ll build the skills, confidence and experience needed to progress toward chartership and beyond.

* In‑depth technical training in your core discipline, plus exposure to 15 technical and 8 interpersonal topics.
* Quarter‑ly development reviews to track your progress.
* Opportunities to shadow senior colleagues and contribute to diverse projects.
Your Pathway
You’ll be assigned a location, cost centre, line manager and a “home” technical discipline based on your qualifications and business needs. If you wish to explore a different discipline at the end of the programme, we’ll consider this based on your interests and business requirements.
Chartered Management Institute (CMI) Partnership
As part of the scheme, you’ll have access to the CMI Foundation Chartered Manager pathway through flexible, online bite‑size programs. Choose from a range of topics—including Managing Change, Leading in a Digital Age, Conflict Resolution, Project Management and Data‑Driven Decision Making—to build your leadership and management skills.
Application and Selection Process
To apply for the Tetra Tech 2026 Graduate Scheme, candidates must submit an up‑to‑date CV detailing their academic background, relevant experience and motivation for joining the programme. All applications will be acknowledged upon receipt.
Following initial screening, shortlisted candidates will be invited to complete an online assessment designed to evaluate key competencies and problem‑solving skills relevant to consultancy work.
