• Carry out structural inspections, defect diagnosis, and reporting on existing structures
• Mentor junior engineers and support their progression towards chartership
• Contribute to business development and client relationships alongside senior leadership
• Promote high standards in quality, sustainability, and technical delivery

About You

• A degree in Structural or Civil Engineering (MEng preferred)
• Chartered status (MICE or MIStructE)
• Significant experience in building structures across a range of materials and project types
• A passion for good design and technical problem-solving
• Familiarity with structural inspections and the use of BIM and advanced 3D design tools
• Strong understanding of UK design codes, construction methods, and procurement routes
• Experience working on heritage or conservation projects (desirable, not essential)
• Leadership ability – with experience managing teams, projects, and clients

Why Apply?

• A collaborative, technically focused environment where engineering quality comes first
• Work on both innovative modern structures and some of the UK’s most iconic heritage buildings
• Hybrid working options and support for professional development
• A central Birmingham office with a supportive senior team and a growing project pipeline
