We are looking for an experienced Principal / Associate Structural Engineer to help establish and grow a new structural engineering capability in Nottingham.

Initially, you will support an established Birmingham team, typically spending 1 day per week in Birmingham, before transitioning into a Nottingham-based team leadership role as the local workload grows.

This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to take ownership, develop client relationships and have a key role in building a new team.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead structural design projects from concept through to construction.
  • Provide technical leadership across the Midlands team.
  • Work across steel, reinforced concrete, timber, and masonry structures.
  • Lead design reviews and provide technical assurance.
  • Ensure designs comply with Eurocodes and British Standards.
  • Build and maintain client relationships.
  • Support bids, tenders, and new business opportunities.
  • Mentor engineers and support the recruitment and development of a local team.
  • Progress into a Nottingham Structural Team Lead / Studio Lead position.

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.
