Director (Structural Engineer)

Director (Structural Engineer)

Company: Aldwych Consulting Salary: £70,000 – £85,000 per annum Type: Full Time Region: UK – South East Town/City: Dorking, Surrey Posted: 02/07/2026 Listed in: Building Engineering Reference: BBBH4822_1782992420

Are you an ambitious structural engineer looking for your next step up? Are you looking to progress and further your career in a varied role within an award-winning Civil & Structural Design consultancy?

Would Dorking be a good location for you?

This role would suit an experienced structural engineer, ideally Chartered, who is:

  • Technically excellent
  • Commercially astute

The Opportunity

This is an opportunity to take a leading role in a very established structural design project and be involved in co-leading the current team of 15 staff.

  • There is a very real option to take shares in the business, with the possibility of becoming a co-owner swiftly if desired.
  • If staying purely salaried appeals more, this is acceptable too.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
