• Liaise with clients, engineers, architects, subcontractors and suppliers to clarify technical requirements and maintain design progress.
• Monitor compliance with relevant design codes, project specifications, health and safety requirements and quality procedures.
• Provide technical support during fabrication and erection, including responding to site queries and managing design revisions.
• Contribute to value engineering, sequencing reviews and practical design solutions that improve buildability, cost and programme outcomes.
Required Qualifications & Experience
• Degree, HND or equivalent qualification in Civil Engineering, Structural Engineering, Construction Engineering, or a related discipline.
• Relevant experience in structural steel design, steel detailing, fabrication co-ordination or construction delivery.
• Good understanding of structural steelwork, connection design principles, fabrication processes and site erection requirements.
• Experience working with design and detailing software such as Tekla Structures, AutoCAD and, where relevant, Revit or other BIM platforms.
• Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, general arrangement drawings, fabrication drawings and specifications.
• Knowledge of relevant design standards, quality procedures and project documentation requirements.
• Experience of working within multi-disciplinary construction or engineering project teams.
Essential Skills
• Strong technical understanding of structural steel design and detailing.
• Excellent co-ordination and communication skills with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Good planning, organisation and time management skills.
• Ability to manage multiple design issues and priorities across live projects.
• Problem-solving ability with a practical and buildable approach.
• Attention to detail and commitment to drawing accuracy and document control.
• Competence in Microsoft Office and common project/document management systems.
• Awareness of health and safety, quality assurance and design change control processes.
