Opportunity Type : Staff

Shape the infrastructure that supports the next generation of nuclear facilities!

The success of a nuclear power station depends on far more than reactor technology. Behind every nuclear facility is a complex network of buildings, structures and engineered systems that must be designed to the highest standards of safety, resilience and performance.

We are seeking an experienced Senior Structural Engineer to support the design and delivery of critical infrastructure for nuclear projects across the UK and internationally.

This is not a nuclear science or reactor technology role. Instead, we are looking for engineers with experience designing the physical structures and infrastructure that enable nuclear facilities to operate safely, including reinforced concrete structures, steel-framed buildings, foundations, equipment support structures, seismic-resistant systems and safety-related facilities.

Based in
Glasgow or London
, you will work as part of multidisciplinary engineering teams delivering solutions for nuclear new-build, plant improvement and infrastructure modification projects.

The position will primarily involve office based engineering work, with occasional travel to project, client or plant locations.

The Opportunity

As a Senior Structural Engineer, you will provide technical leadership and specialist expertise across a range of nuclear infrastructure projects.

To be considered, you must have the legal right to work within the United Kingdom.

Whether your experience comes from nuclear new build, nuclear plant modifications, defence, power generation, petrochemical or industrial processing environments, we would welcome your application

• Developing structural engineering concepts from feasibility through detailed design.
• Delivering reinforced concrete and structural steel designs for buildings, plant structures and supporting infrastructure.
• Producing structural calculations, design reports, specifications and technical documentation.
• Supporting the design of foundations, equipment supports, platforms, access structures and containment-related infrastructure.
• Reviewing and assuring technical outputs to ensure quality and compliance.
• Coordinating closely with mechanical, civil, electrical and instrumentation engineering teams.
• Supporting design reviews, constructability assessments and engineering assurance activities.
• Managing engineering deliverables in line with project schedules, budgets and quality requirements.
• Providing mentoring and technical guidance to developing engineers.
• Interfacing directly with clients, project teams, contractors and stakeholders.

Required Experience:

We are particularly interested in candidates who understand the engineering challenges associated with designing the infrastructure of complex industrial and nuclear facilities.

Relevant experience could include:

• Industrial facility structures.
• Equipment support structures.
• Seismic-resistant structural systems.
• Foundations and below-ground structures.
• Blast-resistant or hazard-resilient…
