Job Title: Structural Engineer
Location: Central London
Sector: Construction & Engineering
Experience Required: 5–7 Years (Consultancy Background Preferred)

An established and growing construction contractor is seeking a Structural Engineer to join their in-house engineering team, working on a range of high-profile projects across Central London. This is a great opportunity for an engineer with a consultancy background who’s ready to take their skills onto live construction sites and into a more delivery-focused role.

The Role
You’ll be involved in the structural design and coordination of both temporary and permanent works, working closely with project teams, clients, and external designers to deliver practical, buildable solutions in a fast-paced environment.

Key Responsibilities:



Provide structural engineering support from pre-construction through to project completion

*

Assist in the development of safe, cost-effective, and buildable engineering solutions

*

Review third-party designs and contribute technical input as required

*

Produce and check design calculations, drawings, and reports

*

Ensure compliance with all relevant regulations, standards, and codes of practice

*

Coordinate with site teams and subcontractors to resolve on-site engineering challenges

About You:

*

5–7 years of structural engineering experience, ideally gained within a consultancy setting

*

Strong technical knowledge and understanding of UK building codes and standards

*

Proficient in structural analysis and design software (e.g. Tekla, TEDDS, Robot, etc.)

*

Confident communicator with the ability to liaise effectively across teams and disciplines

*

Degree-qualified in Civil or Structural Engineering

*

Progressing toward chartership (or already chartered) is advantageous

What’s on Offer:

*

Competitive salary package

*

Long-term opportunity with a forward-thinking contractor

*

Involvement in high-profile Central London developments

*

Supportive team culture with scope for progression

If you're looking to transition from consultancy into a site-focused engineering role with real influence on project delivery, this is an excellent opportunity to do so

Maths for Robotics Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them)

If you are applying for robotics jobs in the UK it is easy to assume you need degree level maths across everything. Most roles do not work like that. What hiring managers usually mean by “strong maths” is much more practical: you can move confidently between coordinate frames you understand rotations without getting lost you can reason about kinematics, control, uncertainty & optimisation you can turn that maths into working code in a robotics stack This guide focuses on the only maths topics that consistently show up across common UK roles like Robotics Software Engineer, Controls Engineer, Autonomous Systems Engineer, Perception Engineer, SLAM Engineer, Robotics Research Engineer, Mechatronics Engineer & Robotics Systems Engineer. You will also get a 6 week learning plan, portfolio projects & a resources section so you can learn fast without drowning in theory.

Neurodiversity in Robotics Careers: Turning Different Thinking into a Superpower

Robotics is where software, hardware & the physical world collide. From warehouse automation & surgical robots to drones, cobots & autonomous vehicles, robots must sense, think & act reliably in messy real environments. To build that kind of technology, you need people who think differently. If you live with ADHD, autism or dyslexia, you may have been told your brain is “too distracted”, “too literal” or “too chaotic” for engineering. In reality, many traits that made school or traditional offices hard are exactly what robotics teams need: intense focus on complex systems, pattern-spotting in sensor data, creative problem-solving when hardware misbehaves. This guide is written for neurodivergent job seekers exploring robotics careers in the UK. We’ll cover: What neurodiversity means in a robotics context How ADHD, autism & dyslexia strengths map to key robotics roles Practical workplace adjustments you can ask for under UK law How to talk about your neurodivergence in applications & interviews By the end, you’ll have a clearer sense of where you might thrive in robotics – & how to turn “different thinking” into a professional superpower.

Robotics Hiring Trends 2026: What to Watch Out For (For Job Seekers & Recruiters)

As we move into 2026, the UK robotics jobs market is in a strange but interesting place. On one hand, UK manufacturers, logistics firms and warehouses must automate to stay competitive, tackle labour shortages and meet productivity and net-zero targets. On the other hand, the UK still lags badly behind peers in robot adoption, with relatively low robot density in factories compared with other advanced economies – which is both a challenge and a massive opportunity. The National Robotarium +1 Add in AI, computer vision and edge computing, and you get a robotics landscape that is: More selective in hiring. More focused on real operational outcomes. More integrated with software, data and safety standards. Whether you are a robotics job seeker planning your next move, or a recruiter building automation and robotics teams, this guide explores the key robotics hiring trends for 2026.
