Are you ready to lead the way in marine civil engineering?
If you’re a motivated, forward-thinking engineer with a passion for maritime structures and infrastructure, this opportunity is for you.
We’re partnering with an innovative engineering consultancy that’s redefining the maritime civil engineering industry. They specialize in delivering cutting-edge solutions across high-profile projects, including:

The Role
As a Senior Maritime Structural Civil Engineer with at least five years of experience, you’ll play a pivotal role in delivering transformative maritime projects. Your responsibilities will include:
  • Client Engagement: Understanding client needs, developing solutions, and fostering strong, long-term relationships
  • Project Leadership: Leading the design and delivery of marine structural and infrastructure projects, from ports to waterfront developments
  • Proposal Development: Drafting, presenting, and securing project proposals with new and existing clients
  • Technical Delivery: Producing practical, high-quality technical designs and reports while offering jargon-free expertise
  • Project Oversight: Managing project finances, budgets, and timelines to ensure successful outcomes
  • Mentorship: Supporting and guiding junior engineers to grow their skills
You’ll be a key figure in their client-facing approach, attending site visits and maintaining a hands-on presence throughout the project lifecycle—from concept to completion.

To thrive in this role, you’ll need:
  • A degree in Civil Engineering (or equivalent)
  • Proven experience in civil structural engineering, including hands-on technical expertise
  • A genuine passion for the marine environment and its challenges
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills, with the ability to work collaboratively with contractors, clients, and partners
 
Why Join This Company?
This consultancy isn’t like traditional firms. They pride themselves on being agile, progressive, and focused on creating a collaborative environment where your contributions truly matter.
You’ll benefit from:
  • Flexible Working: Split your week between home and their modern offices in Portsmouth (Port Solent) or London (Blackfriars)
  • Generous Time Off: 25 days of annual leave (plus statutory holidays), a Christmas break, and the option to purchase an additional 5 days
  • Career Development: A commitment to your growth, with tailored opportunities to advance and diversify your skills
  • Comprehensive Benefits: Salary sacrifice schemes, pension contributions, life assurance, cycle-to-work schemes, and more
Here, you’ll be more than just an employee—you’ll be part of a team shaping the future of the maritime civil engineering sector.
