Are you a Chartered (or nearly Chartered) Structural Engineer who wants to do more than crunch numbers?
Work on Projects That Challenge You. Join a Team That Values Technical Excellence.
Location: Wokingham, Berkshire
Salary: Competitive + Excellent Career Development
Join a consultancy where you'll work alongside architects from the earliest design stages, helping shape projects, not just make them stand up. From investigating existing buildings to solving complex structural challenges, you'll have the opportunity to deliver practical, elegant engineering on projects that genuinely make a difference.
At Michael Aubrey Structural Engineers, we're a multi-award-winning consultancy known for taking on the projects others shy away from. Whether it's nationally recognised RAAC investigations, complex refurbishments, or bespoke residential, commercial and heritage developments, we deliver innovative, buildable solutions with technical excellence at their core.
We're looking for an experienced Chartered (or nearly Chartered) Structural Engineer to help lead our growing portfolio of exciting and challenging projects. If you're looking for greater variety, real collaboration, and the chance to make an impact, we'd love to hear from you.
The Role
You'll take ownership of a diverse range of structural engineering projects, from initial inspections and investigations through to detailed design and construction support.
Your work will include:
- Leading structural surveys, investigations and defect diagnosis.
- Designing in steel, reinforced concrete, timber and masonry.
- Delivering structural designs for new-build, refurbishment, alteration and extension projects.
- Supporting in house REVIT technicians to communicate designs using BIM, models, drawings and sketches
- Collaborating closely with clients, architects and contractors to develop practical engineering solutions.
- Taking projects from concept through to completion with genuine autonomy.
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.
