With excellent interpersonal and communication skills you will have proven ability in negotiating positive outcomes, resource planning, motivation and people management.

With previous consultancy experience, you will appreciate the importance of complementary specialisms such as acoustics, fire engineering and Revit modelling in the design of buildings and be adept at analysing and interpreting their impact on your work.

Why Work For Us?

Our strategy is simple, we want to provide world-class engineering solutions on the best projects with great clients. We want the team to enjoy the projects they do and who they work with, so our portfolio is of high quality, varied and really interesting.

We have access to some of the UKs largest and highest profile projects.
