Senior Structural Engineer

A structural engineering group is looking for an experienced structural engineer to join their newest regional office in the centre of Bristol.

This business has done an excellent job recruiting local talent and now requires a structural engineer with building structures experience to bridge the gap between the design team and senior management.

The benefits of joining a team at this stage are clear to see with significant scope for progression within the business. The general remit for this role is flexible depending on experience but in essence it will involve running and delivering projects while acting as the point of contact for technical queries, delegating to the design team and working directly with office lead.

• Managing a design team of engineers and technicians with their technical duties
• Mentoring and assisting the team in the personal journeys

• Monitoring projects from inception through to completion

Technical experience is certainly important however, personality is key as this person will not only be required to inspire members of their design team, but act as an ambassador for the business in the local market.

Projects are focused on a diverse mix of interesting and challenging bespoke building structures, typically ranging up to £30m in value. This is business is proud to hold a place on frameworks for recognisable organisations which directly contribute to developments across the Southwest.

• Education
• Defence
• Heritage
• Marine
