Job Description

The Company 

A well-established and highly respected multi-disciplinary engineering consultancy in the South West is seeking a Senior Structural Engineer to join its growing team.
 This is far from a “production-line” consultancy. Their work is shaped by the landscape, the environment, and the ambition of each project — resulting in a portfolio that is both diverse and technically stimulating. Projects range from clifftop residences and coastal/marine structures to island developments, zoological facilities, sustainable hospitality schemes, and complex refurbishments, alongside bespoke commercial work.
 The business has built a reputation for delivering thoughtful, design-led engineering, working closely with architects and clients to strike the right balance between creativity and practicality. With structural, civil, and geotechnical teams working in true collaboration, they consistently deliver well-integrated, high-quality solutions.
 
The Role 

As a Senior Structural Engineer, you’ll take on a key role that blends technical delivery, project leadership, and client interaction. You’ll be involved in projects from early-stage concept through to completion, contributing to both project outcomes and team development.
 
Your responsibilities will include:
  
Designing and detailing a broad range of structural systems, including:  
Reinforced concrete and steel frames 
Masonry and timber structures 
Retaining walls, basements, and coastal engineering works   
Delivering innovative solutions on complex and unusual schemes, including clifftop properties, marine environments, and specialist leisure projects 
Assessing existing structures for condition, structural capacity, and potential for reuse or adaptation 
Interpreting architectural and M&E information to produce coordinated structural designs 
Preparing and reviewing technical documentation, including design reports, structural appraisals, and condition surveys 
Ensuring compliance with Eurocodes, British Standards, and current regulatory requirements 
Promoting best practice in health & safety across all project stages 
Supporting fee proposals and tender submissions 
Working collaboratively with civil and geotechnical engineers on integrated projects 
Undertaking site visits, inspections, and construction monitoring 
Building and maintaining strong working relationships with clients, architects, contractors, and local authorities  About You 

You’ll be a capable and confident Structural Engineer who enjoys working on varied and challenging projects, bringing:
  
A degree in Civil or Structural Engineering (BEng, MEng, or BSc) 
Typically 4–5+ years’ experience within a structural design consultancy 
Chartered status (IStructE or ICE) preferred, though not essential for the right individual 
Proficiency in AutoCAD, Revit, and MasterSeries 
The ability to lead projects independently or contribute effectively within a team 
Strong technical capability, attention to detail, and clear communication skills 
A proactive approach to CPD and professional development 
A full UK driving licence 
The right to live and work in the UK without sponsorship  What’s On Offer  
Salary: £40,000 – £55,000, depending on experience 
Full-time hours (37.5 per week), with part-time considered 
Hybrid working arrangement 
Permanent position 
28 days annual leave plus 8 Bank Holidays 
Company pension scheme  Training & Progression  
Full support toward Chartership or Incorporated status (IStructE or ICE) 
Structured one-to-one mentoring 
Regular performance and progression reviews 
Financial support for external courses, training, and industry events 
Ongoing in-house CPD covering both technical and professional development 
Clear and achievable career progression pathways  Why This Role? 

If you’re looking to move away from repetitive, standardised projects and instead work on schemes with real character and technical challenge, this is a standout opportunity. You’ll join a consultancy that values engineering insight, creativity, and local expertise — offering you the chance to do genuinely engaging work while advancing your career
