Take the Lead on Projects That Challenge You
We’re looking for a Senior Structural Engineer who thrives on solving complex technical problems, delivering high‑quality structural design, and supporting others to grow.
If you want real responsibility, interesting work, and the chance to influence how structural design is delivered - this role has your name on it. This role can be based in either our Warwick or Bristol offices.
What You’ll Be Doing
Leading structural design packages for small–medium projects, or owning key design elements within major multidisciplinary schemes
Producing and reviewing structural calculations, models, drawings, and specifications
Applying deep knowledge of UK design codes (Eurocodes, National Annexes, British Standards)
Carrying out detailed structural analysis using industry‑standard software
Contributing to project programmes and providing progress updates to senior engineers
Supporting tenders, fee proposals and technical scope development
Introducing practical, smart structural solutions that improve buildability and sustainability
Mentoring junior structural engineers and supporting their development
What You Bring
Chartered Structural Engineer (CEng MIStructE or CEng MICE with strong structural focus)
Strong experience delivering structural design for complex building or infrastructure projects
Technical expertise across:
Steel, concrete, timber and masonry design
Foundation design (shallow & deep)
Structural assessments and refurbishment
Dynamic or seismic analysis (advantageous)
High proficiency in tools such as Tekla Structural Designer, STAAD, Robot, or Tedds
Experience working within integrated multidisciplinary project teams
Knowledge of BIM workflows and Navisworks
Understanding of CDM duties and structural safety
CSCS card, eligibility for SC clearance, and full UK driving licence
Why This Role Stands Out
This isn’t a “just keep things moving” type of position.
You’ll have ownership, visibility, and the chance to apply your structural expertise on projects that genuinely stretch your skills.
Ready?
