The Opportunity
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Structural Engineer to join a fast-growing, design-led civil and structural engineering consultancy based in Exeter.

Working closely with architects, consultants, and clients to develop coordinated design solutions
Producing high-quality structural designs, drawings, and technical reports
Carrying out structural surveys, feasibility studies, and planning-stage input
