Design Manager - CSA

Basic of £65-80,000 Benefits Listed

Strong foot hold across Data Centres & Technology

Main Contractor - Great career growth opportunities

Potential Travel & International work in the future

We are seeking a Civil & Structural Engineer to be based on site handling Design & Technical Management for the Civil , Structural & Architecture packages on 10 + Mega Watt Data centres.

Managing design development from concept through construction, ensuring buildability, cost efficiency, compliance, and integration with site operations. The desire is for this individual to have a BIAS towards the civil & engineering elements.

This person will feel comfortable pulling a project out the ground and handling an array of subterrain elements from earthworks excavation, muck shift , de-watering, piling, concrete slabs and general substructure works.

A lot of time, money and energy is spent ensuring that the design is fit for purpose to compliment aggressive programs. These technology clients want a return upon the investment ASAP so it's all about program and thinking outside the box.

The projects you will be based on range from the London Region to the Midlands. Depending upon timings and your location you will be placed on the project most suitable. For these reasons & to fit the culture of the business you need to be able to drive and be open to working away as the site locations aren't all next to public transportation locations.

Responsibilities

* Lead the in-house design of:

* Piling systems (e.g., CFA, driven, rotary bored piles)

* Ground-bearing and suspended concrete slabs

* Associated substructures (pile caps, ground beams, rafts)

* Manage design programs to align with construction sequencing

* Ensure all designs comply with relevant standards (e.g. Eurocodes, British Standards)

* Co-ordinate between construction teams, temporary works & geo-technical

* Ensure design solutions are practical, buildable, and aligned with methodology.

* Review and improve when you can. Is there a value engineering option ?

* Resolve technical queries (RFIs) during construction.

* Support in procurement & commercial inputs if called upon working in the SLT.

Software

Structural design software (e.g., Tekla Structural Designer, Robot, STAAD)

AutoCAD / Revit (for coordination)

Excel for design/calculations

Reporting Line

Reports to: Head of Design & Project Director

Interfaces with: Project Managers, Site Managers, Commercial Team, External Consultants

Success Measures (KPIs)

Timely delivery of design packages

Reduction in design-related site issues

Cost savings through value engineering

Compliance and zero major design NCRs

Smooth coordination between design and construction

Requirements

* Degree in Civil or Structural Engineering

* Chartered or working toward chartership (e.g., ICE or IStructE).

* Clear communicator able to act concisely and calm

* Strong technical understanding of concrete slab, temporary works & sub-structures

What We Offer

* Salary range of £65-80,000 Basic

* Up to 11 % Car allowance

* Business related travel paid

* If you need to stay over fully expensed apartment or Hotel will be provided

* Competitive Pension & BONUS

* Opportunities for career development and RAPID progression.

If this position is of interest & keen on a confidential discussion, please send an updated CV in word format including project experience

Where to Advertise Robotics Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising robotics jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. The candidate pool spans mechanical engineers, software developers, controls specialists, computer vision researchers and systems integrators — a multidisciplinary mix that general job boards are poorly equipped to reach. The strongest robotics candidates are often embedded in research groups, defence programmes or advanced manufacturing environments, and move between roles through specialist networks and industry events rather than mainstream platforms. This guide, published by RoboticsJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise robotics roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Robotics Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Robotics is having a moment that feels qualitatively different from the cycles of hype and disappointment that have characterised the sector in previous decades. The convergence of advances in AI, computer vision, battery technology, and hardware manufacturing has brought robotics to an inflection point — one where the gap between what robots can do in controlled laboratory conditions and what they can do in the unpredictable complexity of the real world is closing faster than at any previous point in the discipline's history. For job seekers, this inflection point is creating a jobs market that is expanding rapidly across a far wider range of industries and role types than robotics has historically occupied. Automotive and manufacturing remain significant employers, but they are now joined by logistics and warehousing, healthcare, agriculture, construction, defence, and the emerging category of humanoid robotics — each generating distinct hiring demand and drawing on overlapping but meaningfully different skill sets. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years are those who understand where the sector is heading — which application areas are scaling from pilot to production, which technologies are defining the architecture of modern robotic systems, and how the definition of a robotics career is evolving beyond the mechanical engineering core toward a much richer intersection of software, AI, and systems engineering. This article breaks down what the UK robotics jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career at the leading edge of one of the most exciting technology transitions of the coming decade.

New Robotics Employers to Watch in 2026: UK and Global Companies Transforming Automation Careers

Robotics is moving rapidly from factory floors into healthcare, logistics, agriculture, autonomous systems, and consumer products. As automation becomes embedded in everyday life, companies are investing in robots that operate alongside humans, analyse environments in real time, and learn from data. In 2026, demand for robotics engineers, software developers, system integrators, and AI specialists continues to surge. For professionals exploring opportunities on www.RoboticsJobs.co.uk , understanding the employers that are scaling, winning contracts, securing investment, or expanding into the UK market is crucial. This article highlights top robotics employers to watch in 2026, spanning innovative startups, high‑growth scale‑ups, and established global technology leaders with strong UK presence.
