About the Company
Our client is a dynamic and growing engineering consultancy headquartered in Greater Manchester, renowned for delivering inventive structural solutions across a wide range of sectors. The company have a great portfolio spanning residential, commercial, industrial, and adaptive reuse projects.
What sets them apart:

- Innovative, Practical Solutions: They’re committed to balancing cutting-edge design with robust, buildable engineering that stands the test of time.

- Collaborative Culture: Small-to-mid-sized teams allow for direct mentorship opportunities, cross-disciplinary collaboration, and early exposure to client interaction.
The Role
You will join as a Structural Engineer with around two years of post-graduate experience. You’ll be embedded within project delivery teams and supported by senior engineers and directors to build your skills in a supportive, yet autonomous environment.
Key Responsibilities:
- Develop structural designs and calculations for multi-material projects—including steel, concrete, masonry, and timber.
- Prepare reports, drawings, and specifications aligned with current British Standards (BS) and Eurocodes (UK–compliant).
- Collaborate with architects, MEP consultants, and contractors to ensure seamless integration of structural elements.
- Conduct design reviews, checking and quality controlling work across junior team members’ output.
- Visit sites as required for feasibility studies, inspections, and to support project execution.
- Engage in technical meetings and support presentations to clients and delivery teams.
- Contribute to internal continuous improvement such as optimising design workflows or enhancing digital tools/software processes.
Your Profile
Essential:
- Bachelor’s or Master's degree in Civil or Structural Engineering.
- Minimum of 2 years’ relevant experience in structural design, including use of analysis software (e.g., Tekla, SCIA, SAP2000, IDEA Statica) and CAD/BIM platforms (e.g., AutoCAD, Revit).
- Strong technical knowledge of steel, concrete, masonry, or timber design in accordance with UK regulations.
- Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, with attention to detail.
- Clear communication abilities, both verbal and written—confident in producing reports and presenting to internal teams and clients.
- A proactive, team-oriented attitude; keen to learn and progress.
- Familiarity with sustainability or embodied carbon assessment tools.
- Experience with multidisciplinary project delivery and client-facing exposure.
- Chartered status (ICE, IStructE) or clear route toward professional accreditation.
What You’ll Gain
- A structured progression path, with regular feedback, CPD opportunities, and technical support.
- Exposure to diverse project types—from urban residential developments and commercial refurbishments to light industrial and educational projects.
- A friendly, open culture with hybrid working flexibility based in their modern Sale office.
- Competitive benefits such as pension, annual performance bonus, and access to training programs.
