You'll be stepping into a position where your decisions have a direct impact on quality, efficiency, and the successful delivery of major steel projects.
THE OPPORTUNITYAs Chief Engineer, you'll become a key technical leader within the business.
You'll work closely with detailing, project management, production and quality teams
, ensuring engineering decisions translate effectively from calculations and drawings into the shop and ultimately onto the project.
You'll also have the opportunity to develop junior engineers and improve engineering processes
, giving you genuine influence over how the function operates.
Lead engineering activities and oversee structural steel connection design
Review and approve engineering calculations
Work closely with detailing and project management
Troubleshoot and resolve complex technical issues
Develop and improve engineering processes
Support production and quality teams
Mentor and develop junior engineers
Provide technical leadership across projects
We're particularly interested in engineers with:
Strong structural steel engineering experience
Solid connection design knowledge
Experience leading or mentoring engineering teams
Strong understanding of AISC standards
PE License preferred
Bridge experience would be beneficial
The confidence to make technical decisions and take ownership
This is an opportunity to move beyond being "the engineer on the project" and step into a true technical leadership position
.
You'll have the scope to influence engineering standards, develop people, solve challenging structural problems and work alongside multiple departments to make sure projects are delivered correctly.
If you're an experienced structural steel engineer who is ready to take ownership at Chief Engineer level, this could be the next chapter you've been waiting for.
