Referment is partnering with a leading engineering and construction business to recruit a Senior Temporary Works Design Engineer to join a highly respected in‑house design team delivering complex structural, demolition, and heavy civil engineering projects across the UK.
This is an opportunity for an experienced engineer who enjoys solving technically challenging construction problems and wants to work closely with project delivery teams from tender stage through to installation on site.
You’ll play a key role in developing innovative temporary works solutions, leading design checks, supporting live projects, and mentoring junior engineers within a collaborative engineering environment.
The Role
You’ll Be Involved In
- Temporary works design and checking
- Formwork & falsework engineering
- Needling, propping & structural support systems
- Basement retention & excavation support
- Demolition sequencing & construction methodology
- Tower crane foundations and grillages
- Existing structure appraisals
- Value engineering during pre‑construction
- Technical support to project and site teams
- Reviewing external consultant designs
- Site inspections and constructability assessments
You’ll work alongside senior engineering and operational teams on technically demanding projects where engineering excellence genuinely drives project success.
What We’re Looking For
We’re keen to speak with engineers who have:
- Strong experience in temporary works and structural engineering
- Background in construction, demolition, heavy civils, or specialist engineering
- Experience producing and checking calculations and technical reports
- Understanding of construction methodologies and sequencing
- AutoCAD and technical drafting capability
- Ability to communicate confidently with project teams and clients
- A proactive and solutions‑focused mindset
Experience with Network Rail projects, demolition engineering, crane bases, or complex temporary stability works would be highly advantageous.
Why Apply?
- Complex, high‑profile engineering projects
- Strong technical environment with genuine career progression
- Opportunity to influence design standards and engineering methodology
- Collaborative culture with experienced engineering leadership
- Visible impact across live projects and pre‑construction phases
If you’re interested in confidentially exploring the opportunity, apply now to avoid missing out.
