Graduate Structural Engineer – Bath

Join a dynamic and friendly team of engineers and technicians in our Bath office. Candidates will have up to 3 years’ experience, a degree in Structural Engineering and be undertaking professional development towards Chartered Engineer status with either the ACE or IStructE. The ideal candidate should have some experience in working to Eurocodes/British Standards and have experience using 3D modelling software (Tekla Structural Designer, Robot, ETABS etc.), as well as having strong communication and interpersonal skills in the English language. The successful candidate should be keen to develop professionally with the aim of leading projects and growing EirEng.

As a graduate engineer in a relatively small company (30-40 staff split between the Dublin and Bath offices) you will gain ownership and responsibility for projects quickly but will always have the close support from our senior staff. The role will primarily be office based but may ultimately involve some international travel (primarily to EU) as your career progresses. EirEng Consulting Engineers work on projects throughout Ireland, UK, Europe, North America, Asia, & the Middle East.

The successful candidate will be expected to work alongside more senior engineers and technicians in both our Bath and Dublin offices on all stages of the structural design of projects in logistics, residential, retail, and commercial sectors at a wide range of scales. This will include:

Developing Structural Engineering designs in steel, concrete and timber; including steel portal frames, mezzanine structures, composite structures, connection design, muti storey structures, floor slabs, foundations, and retaining walls.
Using 3D structural modelling software to analyse and design structures.
Preparing reports and specifications.
Preparing sketches by hand and using software to communicate design principles.
Working closely with technicians to prepare drawings and other project deliverables.
Checking and reviewing of engineering designs and deliverables.
Liaising, collaborating and coordinating with internal project team members.
Carrying out site visits and surveys, accompanying our senior engineers initially.
Assisting with project management.

This role is a fantastic opportunity to be part of a growing team where you will be well supported in the progression of your career. We are a company continually striving to improve how we do things and support staff in making proposals of new ways to operate. We look to our younger staff to bring in new ideas, push boundaries and challenge the status quo.

We offer bi-annual bonuses, sports/social activity contributions, company-wide overnight outings, and support in CPD, training and chartership.
