Are you a Structural Engineer looking for a progressive opportunity in Bristol? We are working with an award-winning structural and civil engineering consultancy with a reputation for thoughtful design, technical excellence and creative collaboration. From their central Bristol office they work across a diverse portfolio of projects – from contemporary residential and commercial developments to heritage restorations and community buildings. We’re looking for a talented Structural Engineer to join their growing Bristol team, contributing to innovative, sustainable, and beautifully crafted structures.
This is an exciting opportunity to become part of a close-knit and design-led practice that values engineering ingenuity and teamwork. You’ll join an experienced group of structural engineers and technicians, working directly with architects, clients and contractors on a variety of projects across the South West and beyond. With support from senior colleagues, you’ll have the freedom to take ownership of your own projects – seeing them through from concept to completion – and play a key role in shaping the future of our Bristol office as it continues to expand.
We’re looking for a Structural Engineer with around four to five years’ experience, confident in working with the four main structural materials and comfortable taking a proactive role in design meetings and project delivery. You’ll have a keen eye for detail, the ability to communicate ideas clearly, and a genuine enthusiasm for well-considered structural design.
