Graduate Structural Engineer
Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire
We are problem solvers first, willing to take on virtually any challenge, and are driven to unlock the true potential of every project. We bring the project vision to life through clear solutions and instructions, whether that’s in designing a simple beam or a large site development.
We’re looking for someone who can bring that same focus when they join our young, dynamic team.
You’ll be working in a professional design office and can expect to face a steep but rewarding learning curve. In return, we’ll give you room to grow, and support will be available from our directors when you need a little help.
Responsibilities
Help to deliver a wide range of projects (residential, education, community and health, heritage, university and colleges, and industrial projects) and procurement methods; traditional, design and construct contracts.
Key Skills
A belief that you can do it. Be confident and able to tackle new situations/challenges.
The ability to sketch/draw by hand.
Basic working knowledge of designing elements in steel/ concrete to Eurocodes.
Confident in verbal and written communication with others.
Requirements
Testimonial
A degree in Structural or Civil Engineering.
A valid driving license is preferred but not essential.
We believe in recruiting, developing, and rewarding the best people. If you have ambition and drive, or if you believe that you have untapped potential, then we would love to hear from you.
SOLID is proud to be an equal opportunities workplace. We thrive on diversity and provide a safe, friendly, working environment free from discrimination. We choose our employees based on their suitability and motivation for the role, not on the path they have taken to get here.
‘Beyond SOLID’s fascinating projects, its most valuable asset are the people that make up this remarkable company. With immediate involvement on projects, and responsibility being passed on from early stages, it has allowed me to mature as an Engineer and develop my confidence not solely in this field, but as a person too. The amiable and humble employees that make up SOLID are the core of what throttles this company’s accomplishments.
With an outpouring of ideas and knowledge from an integrated team, I have truly learned the value of collaborative working in our industry. Working at SOLID is equally as rewarding as it is challenging. Having colleagues with a wealth of knowledge and experience up their sleeves has stretched my development as an Engineer and has given me new motivations to thrive in this field. In summary, placing here has been the greatest blessing of my career!’
