Engineer/Senior Engineer – Advanced Structural Analysis

•    Structural fire engineering
•    Nonlinear and dynamic analysis
•    Wind and seismic engineering 
•    Blast and impact analysis 

We work across a diverse portfolio including tall buildings, stadia, long-span roofs, transport hubs, and critical infrastructure, developing structural solutions that are both resilient to extreme events and commercially viable. The team is uniquely positioned to provide independent, technical advice, using state-of-the-art analytical tools to solve some of the most challenging engineering problems. We offer a collaborative environment with opportunities to develop expertise across multiple advanced engineering domains.
 

A little more about the role..

• Developing advanced structural models using finite element analysis (FEA) for complex engineering problems 
• Undertaking detailed analysis of structures under a range of loading scenarios, including nonlinear and dynamic behaviour 
• Contributing to structural fire engineering assessments and performance-based design approaches 
• Carrying out advanced structural analysis for complex, multidisciplinary projects 
• Developing high-fidelity FEA models of concrete and steel structures, applying appropriate material constitutive models
• Supporting the development of innovative and efficient structural solutions 
• Contributing to research and development initiatives within the team 
• Producing clear, high-quality technical reports and presentations 
• Engaging with clients and project teams when required, and collaborating with multi-disciplinary teams
