We are looking for proactive, curious, and motivated graduate civil engineers to join us.
About the Opportunity
Bryden Wood is a leading international company of creative engineers, architects, designers, and analysts. We’re shaping the future of construction by bringing integrated expertise, innovation, deep experience, open minds, and creativity to unravel the most complex problems and create exceptional, sustainable design solutions – all for a better built environment.
We are leaders in the theory and practice of Modern Methods of Construction (MMC), the Platform approach to Design for Manufacture and Assembly (P-DfMA), generative design, creative technologies, integrated design, and automation in construction.
As a civil engineer, you’ll have the opportunity to work in a cutting-edge and dynamic design environment, collaborating with – and learning from – the multiple disciplines across the company. Our projects range from data centres to hospitals to carbon-neutral buildings.
About the Role
You will work in our London office in the Civil Engineering department on a variety of projects across a range of industries. You’ll be given real responsibility from day one, contributing to designs through modelling, analysis, and report writing. You will also have the opportunity to visit live sites and participate in meetings with design teams and clients across your projects. We’re committed to helping our engineers thrive, offering guidance, mentorship, ICE support, and hands-on experience.
