So, now that you'd consider relocating, let us tell you about this amazing opportunity for a Principal Civil or Structural Engineer just like you. Remember playing with Lego as a child? What did you build? Castles, Houses and Bridges? How creative did you get? So creative that all you ever wanted was extension packs to finish a huge project? Did you drive your parents mad asking for blue bricks to finish the river under your bridge? Did you take that early engineering promise through to Uni and beyond? We hope so because we're looking for a Principal Civil or Structural Engineer on behalf on an internationally renowned client of ours. They can trace their links to companies as far back as the 19th century and have a distinguished record in the construction of landmark structures around the world.

What now? If you're a chartered engineer with a good degree (2:1 minimum) in civil/structural engineering, and a minimum of 12 years post-graduation experience in the analysis and design of structures, particularly in steel, then we want to hear from you.
