  • Lead and coordinate the design and delivery of civil and/or structural elements of major infrastructure projects, from feasibility and concept development through detailed design and construction.
  • For civil engineering projects, develop practical and buildable solutions across roads and site infrastructure, drainage, utilities, earthworks, site development and associated civil works.
  • For structural engineering projects, develop safe, efficient and buildable solutions involving reinforced concrete, structural steel, masonry, foundations, retaining structures and associated temporary and permanent works.
  • Undertake and oversee engineering analysis and design appropriate to your discipline, including the preparation and review of calculations, drawings, specifications, technical reports and tender documentation.
  • Take ownership of projects and design packages, coordinating internal and external resources to deliver high-quality engineering solutions.
  • Work as part of multidisciplinary teams alongside civil, structural, geotechnical, mechanical, electrical, environmental and other specialists.
  • Ensure designs comply with applicable Eurocodes, British Standards, Irish and UK requirements, client standards and health and safety obligations.
  • Manage project programmes, budgets, resources, risks and deliverables to achieve time, cost and quality objectives.
  • Work directly with clients and stakeholders, participating in design and project meetings, providing clear technical advice and helping to resolve engineering and delivery challenges.
  • Provide technical support through procurement and construction, including responding to technical queries, reviewing contractor submissions and attending site where required.
  • Provide technical guidance and mentorship to engineers, graduates and technicians, helping to develop the wider team.
  • Promote high standards of technical quality, sustainability, innovation and client service across all projects.

Key Requirements

  • Degree in Civil Engineering or Structural Engineering (BEng, BSc, MEng or equivalent).
  • Chartered Engineer status or actively working towards chartership or professional registration with Engineers Ireland, ICE, IStructE.
  • A minimum of seven years’ relevant experience in civil or structural engineering.
  • Strong technical knowledge within your chosen discipline. This may include civil infrastructure such as roads, drainage, utilities, earthworks and site development, or structural engineering involving reinforced concrete, structural steel, masonry, foundations and retaining structures.
  • Experience delivering civil or structural engineering projects from feasibility and concept development through detailed design and construction support.
  • Strong knowledge of recognised engineering design standards and codes relevant to your discipline, with the ability to apply these effectively in practice. Previous Irish or UK project experience would be advantageous but is not essential.
  • Experience working within multidisciplinary teams and coordinating internal and external design resources.
  • Strong communication, leadership and project management skills, with the confidence to engage directly with clients, contractors and other project stakeholders.
  • Proficiency in relevant engineering design and analysis software. This may include Civil 3D, AutoCAD, InfoDrainage or similar for civil engineering candidates, and Tekla Structural Designer, Tedds, Autodesk Robot, MasterSeries or similar for structural engineering candidates.
