Do you have at least 5 years’ experience designing or assessing reinforced concrete and steel structures subject to dynamic loading such as seismic or blast?
Have you produced technical justification or safety case documentation for engineering changes within a high hazard or regulated industry?
Would you like to apply your civil and structural engineering expertise on complex infrastructure projects where safety, design integrity, and long-term performance are critical?
The Opportunity
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Civil Structural Engineer to join a highly performing engineering team working in a safety critical environment. You will play a key role in supporting complex infrastructure projects, ensuring design integrity, safety compliance, and long-term asset performance. This is a highly technical position offering exposure to challenging engineering problems, major programmes, and a stable workstream within a regulated sector.
Your duties and responsibilities will be
- Author, develop, assess, and maintain civil and structural design substantiation documentation
- Support design changes and concessions ensuring compliance with safety and regulatory requirements
- Produce and review technical justification for structural modifications in a high hazard environment
- Contribute to safety case documentation and periodic safety reviews
- Develop and manage Examination, Inspection, Maintenance and Testing schedules
- Present technical information to engineering and safety governance panels
- Review third party technical submissions and contractor deliverables
- Carry out independent technical assessments and peer reviews
- Check calculations and technical reports produced by other engineers
- Provide technical guidance to internal and external stakeholders
- Apply engineering principles across the full asset lifecycle from design through to decommissioning
You will have the following qualifications & experience
- Minimum 5 years experience in civil or structural design or assessment
- Experience working with reinforced concrete and steel structures
- Experience designing for dynamic loading such as seismic, blast, wind, or environmental loads
- Experience working on marine or coastal structures such as seawalls or jetties
- Ability to produce robust technical justification for engineering changes
- Experience working within high hazard or highly regulated industries
- Knowledge of British Standards and Eurocodes
- Minimum HNC or equivalent in a relevant engineering discipline
- Incorporated Engineer or equivalent experience
It’s great if you also have the following
- Experience within nuclear or similarly regulated environments
- Familiarity with safety case methodologies such as HAZID or HAZOP
- Knowledge of nuclear industry regulations and standards
- Degree in Civil or Structural Engineering
- Chartered Engineer status
The setting for the role
This role offers a hybrid working environment, combining remote working with time spent on site within a secure and highly regulated engineering setting. You will work as part of a multi-disciplinary team delivering engineering solutions in a safety critical infrastructure environment.
