About the Role
Baltic Recruitment are delighted to be partnering with a leading engineering organisation specialising in the lifting, transportation, installation, and decommissioning of large-scale structures and heavy industrial equipment.
This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious Mechanical or Civil Engineering engineer with around 1-2 years' industry experience, who is looking to develop their technical expertise while working on large-scale, high-profile engineering projects. You'll receive ongoing support and mentoring from an experienced engineering team, providing a clear pathway for professional development and career progression.
Key Duties
As a Project Engineer, you'll play a key role in developing both conventional and innovative engineering solutions for complex heavy lifting and transportation projects. Working alongside experienced engineers, you'll be responsible for preparing and developing engineering method statements, technical drawings, calculations, lifting plans, visualisations, manuals, risk assessments, and other supporting documentation to ensure projects are delivered safely, efficiently, and to the highest technical standards.
The Project Engineer will regularly travel to customer sites across the UK, providing hands-on engineering support throughout the delivery of complex lifting and transportation projects.

All travel, accommodation, and transport are fully arranged and covered by the company, allowing you to focus entirely on supporting project execution while gaining invaluable on-site experience across a diverse range of engineering environments.
