The Role: Structural Analysis Engineer
Location: Sole UK National required (with Security Clearance eligibility)
You’ll lead end-to-end structural and stress analysis for marine mechanical and hybrid structures, assessing both new and ageing assets to ensure structural integrity, safety, and compliance in dockyard environments.
Key Responsibilities
- Deliver end-to-end structural and stress analysis for marine mechanical and hybrid structures, including load path assessment, through-life degradation, and integrity challenges.
- Scope, plan, and execute analysis with minimal oversight, creating robust hand calculations, analytical models, and evidence-based recommendations.
- Balance technical precision with practical delivery timelines, ensuring all outputs meet safety, environmental, and regulatory standards.
- Engage directly with customers and multidisciplinary teams to clarify requirements, present findings, and build trusted engineering relationships (a critical customer-facing aspect).
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Responsibilities (Expanded)
- Scope and execute structural and stress analysis projects across marine mechanical and hybrid structures.
- Evaluate load paths, environmental loads, ageing mechanisms, and integrity challenges in dockyard settings.
- Produce high-quality hand calculations, analytical models, and supporting documentation for engineering decisions.
- Present findings to internal stakeholders and external customers, translating complex analysis into clear, actionable recommendations.
- Work independently, leading complete packages from scoping to final delivery—minimising reliance on oversight.
- Ensure all outputs align with regulatory, safety, and environmental compliance.
Requirements
