As an Engineer within our team, your work will be diverse and challenging and will include overseeing and checking of code compliant calculations, reviewing and approving technical documents, managing design activities and outputs (CAD designs and drawings), as well as liaising with the project manager and director in supporting commercial matters and bidding activities.
We achieve success by working in close partnership with our clients, by matching our skills to their needs, being flexible, and by using our resources efficiently. Whether we’re delivering high quality engineering and technical services or programme management, we always deliver the solution that’s right for them.
