Structural and Bridge Engineer

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a talented Structural and Bridge Engineer to contribute to the design, assessment and delivery of a diverse range of infrastructure projects. The role will involve working across highways, bridges and civil structures, supporting projects from initial feasibility through to detailed design, construction and completion.

You will work closely with clients, contractors, architects, engineers and other stakeholders to develop safe, practical and sustainable solutions. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to take responsibility for technical outputs, contribute to project planning and support the development of less experienced colleagues.

Key responsibilities

  • Design and assess bridges, retaining walls, culverts and other structural and highway-related assets.
  • Prepare calculations, specifications, drawings, technical reports and other project documentation.
  • Undertake inspections, surveys and condition assessments of existing structures.
  • Use appropriate design standards, guidance and software to deliver robust and economical solutions.
  • Support feasibility studies, optioneering, risk assessments and constructability reviews.
  • Coordinate with internal and external project teams, responding to technical queries throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Provide technical input during construction, including reviewing contractor proposals and supporting site-based activities where required.
  • Manage assigned tasks and deliverables to agreed programmes, budgets and quality standards.
  • Promote best practice in health and safety, sustainability, quality assurance and engineering excellence.

About you

You will have a degree or equivalent qualification in civil or structural engineering, together with relevant experience in bridge or structural design. Professional registration, or a clear commitment towards achieving it, would be advantageous. Experience of working with recognised UK design standards and inspection procedures is expected.

Strong analytical, communication and report-writing skills are essential, along with the ability to organise competing priorities and work effectively both independently and as part of a multidisciplinary team. Familiarity with structural analysis, design and drafting software would be beneficial.

This role offers the opportunity to work on technically varied projects, develop your professional expertise and make a tangible contribution to the safety and resilience of the built environment.
