Job Description

Structural Engineer - Warwick

Step into a pivotal role with an ambitious multi-disciplinary consultancy in Warwick, where your expertise will bridge the gap between a robust management team and a dynamic group of Graduate Engineers. This permanent position offers a unique platform to elevate your career while contributing to the growth and success of the organisation.

Why This Role Stands Out:

- Diverse Projects: Engage in a variety of stimulating projects across commercial, retail, leisure, rail, and residential developments, including high-rise and prestigious landmark buildings.
- Professional Growth: Benefit from a supportive environment that encourages your professional development and progression towards senior roles.
- Influential Role: Play a significant part in shaping the future of the consultancy by contributing to business strategies and mentoring junior engineers.

Key Responsibilities:

- Prepare and review structural engineering designs, drawings, specifications, reports, and correspondence.
- Liaise with external professionals and clients, representing the consultancy at meetings and site inspections.
- Manage project timelines and performance, ensuring high standards are maintained.
- Supervise and guide Graduate Engineers and Technicians in their tasks.
- Prepare structural reports on buildings and other structures.

Essential Qualifications and Experience:

- Degree-qualified Engineer, aspiring to or working towards Incorporated or Chartered Membership of either the Institution of Structural Engineers or Institution of Civil Engineers.
- 2-4 years of post-graduate experience in structural engineering.
- Proven ability to manage and lead teams, with excellent communication skills.
- Experience in contract negotiation and a commercial understanding of fee management.
- Demonstrated ability to ensure client satisfaction throughout the design process.

Technical Proficiency:

- Expertise in designing structural members in steel, reinforced concrete, masonry, and timber.
- In-depth knowledge of UK Building Regulations and codes of practice.
- Familiarity with design software such as Tekla Structural Designer, S-Frame, TEDDS, SCIA, and CADS.
- Proficiency in Microsoft Office and other administrative software.

Competencies:

- Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to produce concise, accurate, and technically correct reports.
- Capability to manage personal workload within agreed timeframes and budgets.
- Aptitude for contributing to the workload management of engineers and technicians.

This role not only promises a challenging and rewarding career but also the chance to be part of a forward-thinking company that values innovation and professional growth. If you possess the drive, determination, and technical acumen, this could be the perfect next step in your career.
