Are you a senior structural/civil marine engineer looking for the next step in your career? With us, you will work on significant projects locally and internationally, collaborating with leading maritime professionals.

What Will You Do

Your role involves developing engineering design solutions for maritime civil structures in ports and shipyards, using materials like steel, concrete, and timber, in accordance with relevant codes. You will contribute throughout all project stages, from inception to demolition and recycling. Your technical and commercial experience, along with your ability to liaise with multidisciplinary teams, will be vital. You will act as a Project Manager for small to medium projects or a Technical Manager for larger, complex projects, providing guidance to junior staff.

  • Prepare designs and analysis for maritime structures.
  • Conduct inspections and surveys.
  • Produce and review design calculations and models.
  • Check drawings before issuance.
  • Prepare Bills of Quantities, Contracts, and Specifications.

You will also give presentations, provide engineering advice, and review reports. Your commercial awareness will help deliver profitable results, and you will contribute to business development through proposals and client interactions.

Where You Will Work

We are an employee-owned consulting firm with 6,000 colleagues across 75 offices worldwide. Our Maritime team specializes in port planning, design, and development, working on international projects to create successful ports and infrastructure. We are leaders in port feasibility studies and master plans globally.

What You Bring

You have strong analytical skills, can lead design work independently, and communicate effectively. You maintain a professional client-facing approach, think creatively, and are solution-oriented. You are organized, disciplined, personable, and empathetic.

  • Experience in developing shipyard infrastructure (quays, dry docks, docks, lifts).
  • Commitment to training junior staff.
  • Degree in Civil/Structural Engineering (BSc, MSc, CEng, etc.).
  • Experience in maritime structural design and familiarity with standards.

Even if you do not meet all requirements, we encourage you to apply and highlight your additional skills.
