The successful candidate will be responsible for developing structural designs in response to client briefs, producing detailed engineering calculations in accordance with Eurocodes and utilising the latest 3D design software to deliver practical and efficient solutions. Working closely with architects, contractors, specialist consultants and other design disciplines, they will contribute to coordinated BIM-led project delivery while supporting the production of detailed drawings and specifications for tender and construction purposes.

Beyond the design office, the role offers valuable exposure to site-based activities, including construction inspections, progress monitoring and structural assessments of existing buildings.
