Structural Engineer

Opportunity

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Structural Engineer to join a fast-growing, design-led civil and structural engineering consultancy based in Exeter. This is far from a volume-driven consultancy. The business focuses on carefully selected, high-quality residential and commercial schemes, delivering bespoke engineering solutions with genuine autonomy and technical involvement. You will have input from early feasibility and planning stages through to final delivery, helping shape projects rather than simply processing them.

If you are looking for variety, responsibility, and the chance to work closely with architects and clients, this role offers a refreshing alternative to a corporate environment.

As a Senior Structural Engineer
, you will play a key role in project delivery while supporting the continued growth of the consultancy.

• Working closely with architects, consultants, and clients to develop coordinated design solutions
• Producing high-quality structural designs, drawings, and technical reports
• Carrying out structural surveys, feasibility studies, and planning-stage input
• Managing client relationships and maintaining clear communication throughout projects
• Ensuring high technical standards across all deliverables
• Designing on a range of residential and commercial schemes from concept to completion
• Taking ownership of projects and making confident technical decisions

We are looking for a capable and motivated Structural Engineer who can demonstrate:

• A degree in Structural or Civil Engineering
• 5+ years of relevant industry experience
• Strong AutoCAD and Tekla proficiency
• Experience with Revit, Site3D, or Flow (advantageous, not essential)
• Strong communication, IT, and report-writing skills
• The ability to manage workload independently and deliver to deadlines

• Competitive salary
• Flexible working arrangements
• Performance-related annual bonus
• Private healthcare
• Clear and realistic career progression
• Accredited training and development programmes
• Friendly, collaborative team culture
• Your birthday off

This is a business in a strong position able to carefully select the projects it takes on and deliver work it genuinely takes pride in. You will join a team that values trust, technical excellence, and a balanced approach to working life.
