    Precast Technical Solutions – Senior Structural Engineer

    CEMC Worksop (preferred) / Manchester (Full time and Part time considered)

Take a look inside our facility:

    The Opportunity

    We are looking for a Senior Engineer to join our growing Precast Technical Solutions team. Precast Technical Solutions (PTS) is an integral part of the Explore Manufacturing Design Centre, established to provide end-to-end leadership and best practice in precast design and engineering throughout the full design process. This role is an opportunity to be at the forefront of Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DfMA) in the UK, with teams developing and delivering innovative solutions, utilising products that we produce through our own manufacturing facility, the Centre for Excellence for Modern Construction (CEMC).

    The Senior Engineer role is required to lead structural engineering input on Tenders and Pre-Construction Service Agreement (PCSA) engagements for all DfMA projects across Building Structures, Facades and Infrastructure. The individual will work closely with bid teams to assess existing designs and develop alternative, DfMA product-based designs during the tender process to enable robust pricing and identification of technical risk. Additionally, we are seeking an engineer to take our product sets to the next level, by utilising experience in the implementation of parametric design to optimise the design process of DfMA components and deliver zero carbon products. This will be a critical role in delivering on Laing O'Rourke's target to be a net zero carbon company before 2050.

    What will the role look like?

    • Conceptualising how insitu schemes can be converted and broken down into precast components, and developing associated connection strategies and designs.
    • Provide tender RIBA Stage 2/3 structural design assessments for cost allowances, utilising the CEMC product set.
    • Take an innovative approach in determining the best solution for engineering problems, that deliver efficiencies and savings in carbon and material.
    • Fully understand Design for Manufacture and Assembly principles (DFMA), ensuring good knowledge of materials, processes, & manufacturing constraints, and undertaking conversion designs to ensure feasibility
    • Maintain awareness of ongoing product development and provide input where required to ensure effective development of existing products and introduction of new products
    • Consider the full lifecycle of each product, ensuring all precast elements can be safely and efficiently manufactured, stored, transported and installed

    What Skills and Experience are we looking for?

    Essential

    • A passion to lead the industry through structural design innovation and excellence.
    • Self-motivated and proactive individual capable of leading activity and working under own initiative
    • Good problem-solving skills and confidence to enforce safe designs
    • Reinforced concrete design experience
    • Experience in using CAD packages, including Revit, and is keen to extend their learning in this area
    • Knowledge in the use of design and analysis programs (e.g TEDDS, Scia Engineer)) is beneficial to the role.
    • Degree-level Engineering education; Chartered Structural Engineer or working towards within 24 months
    • At least 4 years' experience in a structural design engineer role

    Desirable

    • Structural Steel design experience
    • Concrete reinforcement detailing knowledge
    • Good understanding of site construction techniques and building design principles
    • Understanding of precast concrete manufacture
    • A good understanding of associated assembly methods and costs
    • Coding/scripting skills e.g. grasshopper / Solibri / Dynamo
