Apply NowWe have an opportunity for a Structural Engineer to join the consultancy division of an engineering contractor based in Slough, delivering a diverse portfolio of structural projects across the UK. This role will support a close-knit and highly experienced team, being a hands-on role offering a mix of design, analysis, and site-based engineering, ideal for someone who enjoys solving real-world structural challenges.
This opportunity offers exposure to an incredibly varied project portfolio, including listed buildings, historic monuments, churches, bridges, and residential properties. You’ll work alongside a collaborative team of engineers and site specialists, contributing to both temporary works and permanent refurbishment designs. The role goes beyond pure calculations – you’ll be actively involved in assessing existing structures, advising on strengthening solutions, and developing practical, buildable designs. With a strong emphasis on long-term development, the business is committed to supporting chartership and nurturing engineers through to senior leadership – evidenced by team members who have progressed from junior roles to director level.
The client is looking for a proactive and technically capable engineer who combines strong analytical ability with practical problem-solving skills. This is not a role for someone who wants to sit behind a desk all day – it requires curiosity, communication, and a willingness to engage with projects from concept through to site delivery.
What’s On Offer
• Strong support towards Chartership with mentorship from experienced engineers.
• Exposure to a wide variety of complex and heritage-focused projects.
• A clear progression pathway within a business known for long-term staff retention.
• Opportunity to work across both consultancy and contractor environments.
• Close-knit team culture with real influence on project outcomes and business direction.
What You Need To Succeed
Minimum of 4+ years’ experience in structural engineering (post-graduate).
Experience in both temporary works (TW) and permanent works / refurbishment design.
Strong skills in structural analysis, calculations, and design development.
Ability to assess existing structures and propose strengthening or repair solutions.
Comfortable undertaking site visits and liaising with contractors and clients.
A problem-solving mindset with a focus on practical, buildable solutions.
Good communication skills and ability to work collaboratively within a team.
Ambition to progress professionally and work towards Chartership.
Chartered with IStructE or ICE (preferred but not essential).
MEng or BEng in Civil Engineering (or equivalent)
