We are looking to appoint a Civil or Structural Technical Director to strengthen leadership within our Leeds office, supporting the continued growth of our Civil & Structural (C&S) capability. This is a key role within a well-established, collaborative team delivering a diverse portfolio of projects across infrastructure, buildings and development sectors.
You will join a multidisciplinary environment where Civil, Structural and wider engineering teams work closely together, combining technical excellence with a pragmatic approach to delivery. With strong relationships across the region and a healthy pipeline of work, this role offers the opportunity to play a visible leadership role within the office while contributing to the wider success of Stantec’s UK business.
As a Technical Director, you will provide technical and strategic leadership across a range of Civil & Structural projects, ensuring high-quality delivery while supporting the growth and development of the team. You will work closely with regional and national leaders, contributing to business planning, client engagement and the successful delivery of complex projects across multiple sectors.
You will act as a senior technical authority, guiding project teams through design and delivery challenges, while maintaining strong client relationships and identifying opportunities for future work. Alongside project involvement, you will support the development of technical capability within the team, mentoring engineers and contributing to a culture of continuous improvement and innovation.
This role plays a critical part in shaping the future capability and direction of our Civil & Structural team in Leeds. Through your leadership, you will influence how complex infrastructure and development projects are delivered, ensuring they are technically robust, commercially sound and aligned with evolving industry and regulatory requirements.
You will support clients in navigating increasingly complex challenges, from sustainable design and environmental pressures to long-term asset performance, while helping to build a team that is capable, confident and forward-looking. Over time, your impact will be reflected not only in the successful delivery of projects, but in the strength, reputation and technical depth of the team you help to grow.
