Skilled Careers are currently working with an award-winning, design-led structural engineering consultancy in the West End of London who are looking to add a Graduate Structural Engineer (+1) to their growing team.
Based close to Tottenham Court Road, the consultancy has recently moved into a brand-new office, making this an exciting time to join a business that is continuing to grow.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a Structural Engineer who is still relatively early in their career and is looking to develop their technical experience within a genuinely design-focused environment. The consultancy works closely with architects and other design professionals, delivering bespoke structural solutions across a variety of architecturally led projects.
The Company
The practice brings together significant technical expertise, practical knowledge and experience gained from leading design-focused practices across the UK and Europe.
Working as part of a multi-national and multi-lingual team, the consultancy uses the latest analysis and design software to deliver bespoke, efficient structural solutions across projects of varying scale and complexity.
Their current portfolio includes:
- Residential developments, including new-build, contemporary refurbishment and basement projects
- Commercial developments
- Mixed-use schemes
- Hotels & resorts
- Offices and retail
- Education projects
This is an excellent environment for someone who wants exposure to interesting, architecturally led schemes rather than working on repetitive projects.
