Structural Engineer Exeter | High-Rise Buildings | Hybrid Working



The Opportunity



This is a genuinely rare opportunity for a Structural Engineer based in the South West to work on major high-rise building projects — without relocating to a major city or sacrificing quality of life.



A well-established, design-led civil and structural engineering consultancy with a strong Exeter presence is expanding its structural team to support a growing portfolio of complex, multi-storey and high-rise developments delivered across the UK.



While the Exeter office remains firmly rooted in Devon, the consultancy operates nationally, meaning you’ll gain exposure to large-scale, technically demanding buildings typically associated with London, Bristol or Manchester — all while staying local.



The Role



As Senior Structural Engineer, you’ll play a key role in the design and delivery of high-rise and complex building structures, alongside a wider mix of commercial and residential projects.



You’ll be trusted with real responsibility, working closely with architects, developers and multidisciplinary teams from concept through to construction.



Key responsibilities include:



Structural design and analysis of high-rise and multi-storey buildings

Producing calculations, drawings and technical reports

Working confidently with AutoCAD and Tekla

Collaborating closely with architects and wider design teams

Supporting project delivery from feasibility through to construction stages

Ensuring designs comply with current codes, standards and best practice

Mentoring junior engineers and contributing to technical excellence

Coordinating with colleagues across the wider business About You



We’re looking for a capable and ambitious Structural Engineer who brings:



A degree in Structural or Civil Engineering

Proven experience within a structural design consultancy

Exposure to high-rise or complex building structures

Competence using AutoCAD and Tekla

Experience with Revit, Site3D or Flow (desirable but not essential)

Strong technical understanding and modern design capability

Clear communication skills and confidence working with project teams

A desire to work on technically demanding projects while remaining Devon-based Chartership is welcomed but not essential for the right candidate.



What’s In It For You

Competitive salary (negotiable depending on experience)

Performance-related bonus

Hybrid working

Exposure to major high-rise building projects desirable but not essential

Clear career progression within a growing consultancy

Supportive, design-focused culture

Attractive benefits package Why This Role?



High-rise structural engineering and Devon rarely go hand-in-hand — but this role offers exactly that. If you’re looking to stretch yourself technically on large, complex buildings without relocating, this is a standout opportunity
