Senior Structural Engineer
Newcastle upon Tyne
A well-established, multi-disciplinary Consultancy is seeking an experienced Senior Structural Engineer to join its growing Newcastle upon Tyne office. The company has built a strong reputation over more than a century for delivering innovative, practical and sustainable engineering solutions. Its Structural Engineering team works across an extensive range of sectors, providing services from concept through to construction on projects of all scales - from small domestic developments to complex, multi-million-pound structures.
This is an exciting opportunity for a skilled Structural Engineer to take a key role in a technically accomplished and collaborative team. The successful candidate will contribute to the design and assessment of new and existing buildings in steel, concrete, masonry and timber, including refurbishment and strengthening of heritage and listed structures. Projects typically span commercial, residential, industrial, retail and public infrastructure sectors, reflecting the Consultancy's broad technical capability and strong regional presence.
You will lead on design coordination, ensuring that solutions are safe, efficient and aligned with client objectives. Responsibilities include preparing detailed calculations and high-quality technical reports, undertaking analysis using recognised software packages such as Tekla Structural Designer, Tedds, CSC/Fastrak, Robot and Bluebeam Revu, and verifying outputs through hand calculations. You will carry out site inspections, structural assessments and condition surveys, and ensure all designs comply with Eurocodes, British Standards and UK Building Regulations. The role also involves liaising with clients, architects, contractors, and other engineering disciplines to deliver fully integrated, buildable design solutions.
Applicants should hold a bachelor's or master's degree in Civil or Structural Engineering and be Chartered or near Chartered with a relevant professional body such as the ICE or IStructE. A minimum of five years' post graduate UK consultancy experience is required, with a strong understanding of design standards, detailing, and construction techniques. Excellent communication, report-writing and project management skills are essential, together with the ability to manage competing priorities and mentor junior team members. Experience of working with existing and heritage buildings will be advantageous.
The Consultancy's Structural Engineering team is recognised for combining creativity with technical rigour, using advanced modelling tools, sustainable design practices and modern methods of construction to deliver safe, efficient and cost-effective solutions. Its collaborative culture encourages innovation, personal growth and shared technical learning. Engineers are empowered to take ownership of their work and contribute to the continued development of the business and the built environment.
This is an outstanding opportunity for a motivated Structural Engineer to join a respected Consultancy with a forward-thinking approach and a varied, high-quality project portfolio.
