Are you a Chartered Structural Engineer looking to take full ownership of a team and play a key role in growing a consultancy, rather than waiting years for a leadership opportunity to arise?
On offer is the chance to step into a genuine leadership position where you'll lead an established Structural Engineering team, influence business strategy and help drive the practice towards larger and more complex projects, all whilst remaining heavily involved in technical engineering work.
This multidisciplinary consultancy provides Structural Engineering, Quantity Surveying and Building Surveying services across London and the South East. Working on projects ranging from high-end residential developments and listed buildings through to commercial refurbishments, schools and community buildings, they offer a unique environment where engineers work closely alongside commercial and surveying teams to gain greater project influence and responsibility.
