About the role

We are seeking a senior or associate engineer to join our engineering studio in Clerkenwell, London and lead the civil and structural surveys design as part of our interdisciplinary design team. You will have a unique opportunity to work on the Restoration and Renewal of the Palace of Westminster, one of the most iconic buildings in the world. We are currently responding to a challenging employer brief to transform this iconic building into a fit for purpose, sustainable workplace and public building, and are in the early stages of understanding and surveying the existing building.

Communication is key, and you should have a collaborative team-working style which will help foster strong working relationships with architects, engineers, clients and contractors.

Your knowledge of design processes, assessment of existing buildings and contractor coordination will steer the workstream, while your attention to detail and problem-solving mindset will ensure quality outputs and proactive engagement.

You will also have the opportunity to build on your existing digital design skills to contribute to a project that is expected to be at the forefront of modelling innovation, leading the communication of the existing information through 3D models alongside traditional hand sketches and calculations.
