Senior Structural Engineer

Senior Structural Engineer – Leeds

There are plenty of structural engineering roles in Leeds offering "great projects" and "career progression". This one is a bit different. It sits within a growing consultancy that has built a strong reputation through long‑standing client relationships and a consistent stream of repeat work across the commercial, retail and property sectors. Rather than being heavily design‑led, this role is centred around understanding existing buildings, identifying problems, advising clients and becoming the engineer people rely on when something needs investigating properly.

• Carry out structural inspections, surveys and investigations on a variety of buildings.
• Spend roughly three days a week on site, with the remainder focused on reporting, technical problem‑solving and supporting project delivery from the Leeds office.
• Produce clear, detailed technical reports that influence decisions.
• Support and guide junior engineers within the growing team.
• Work flexibly to accommodate off‑hour retail inspections.

• Chartered structural engineer or close to achieving chartership.
• Strong experience carrying out structural inspections and surveys, writing detailed technical reports and managing work independently.
• Solid knowledge of UK structures and building standards.
• Experience in a consultancy setting is expected.

• Direct client exposure and ownership of projects.
• Balance between on‑site work and technical tasks.
• Opportunity to become a recognised technical figure within the office.
