Job Description

The Opportunity 

An exciting opportunity has opened for an Associate Structural Engineer to join a growing, design-focused civil and structural engineering consultancy in their Bristol office.
 This is a senior-level position suited to a Chartered Engineer who is looking to step beyond pure project delivery. You’ll play a central role in client engagement, business development, and team expansion — with the opportunity to shape and grow your own team within an established office of around 12 professionals.
 The consultancy delivers high-quality commercial and residential schemes, operating with a boutique approach — focusing on carefully selected clients, bespoke engineering solutions, and strong technical excellence, all without the constraints of a large corporate structure.
 
The Role 

As an Associate Structural Engineer, you’ll take on a position that blends technical leadership with commercial and client-facing responsibilities, contributing to both successful project delivery and the continued growth of the Bristol office.

 Key responsibilities include:
  
Leading the design and delivery of commercial and residential structural projects 
Acting as a key client contact and trusted engineering advisor 
Building and maintaining strong, long-term client relationships 
Supporting business development and securing repeat and new work 
Mentoring, managing, and growing a team of engineers 
Maintaining high standards of technical quality and consistency 
Collaborating closely with architects and multidisciplinary design teams 
Contributing to the strategic development and expansion of the Bristol office  This role offers genuine autonomy, influence, and the chance to build something of your own within a supportive and well-established environment.
 
About You 

We’re looking for a confident and commercially aware Chartered Structural Engineer who can bring:
  
Chartered status (MIStructE or MICE) 
Strong experience delivering commercial and residential projects 
Proven ability in client-facing roles and relationship management 
Demonstrable success in business development and winning work 
Leadership experience, or a clear ambition to build and lead a team 
Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills 
A proactive, entrepreneurial mindset  What’s In It For You? 

This consultancy recognises and rewards leadership, trust, and performance, offering:
  
Salary of £65,000 – £70,000 
Competitive overall package including bonus, healthcare, and pension 
Flexible and hybrid working arrangements 
A clear pathway to senior leadership beyond Associate level 
The opportunity to build and lead your own team 
A collaborative, supportive, and design-led culture 
High-quality, interesting projects without corporate bureaucracy  Why This Role? 

If you’re ready to step into an Associate role — or you’re already operating at this level but looking for a stronger platform — this is a rare opportunity to take ownership of clients, shape a team, and grow a regional presence, all within an established and supportive consultancy.
