Role Overview
Alternative Heat is seeking a Structural Engineer to support the delivery of decarbonisation projects across the UK and Ireland. This role will suit an engineer with a broad structural background who is comfortable working across both offsite-manufactured steelwork / plantroom structures and more general building works, including steel, masonry, concrete, timber, ground-bearing slabs and existing building assessments. The successful candidate will work as part of the structural engineering team in Banbridge, supporting the design, review and coordination of structural works associated with decarbonisation upgrades, plant installations, modular plantrooms, builders’ works openings, support frames, external gantries, rooftop plant, and associated enabling works. The role requires strong first-principles engineering judgement, practical construction knowledge and the ability to develop buildable structural solutions for both new and existing buildings.
