Are you a degree-qualified Civil or Structural Engineer looking to move client-side and deliver projects that make a direct commercial impact?

We’re partnering with a leading organisation in the media and infrastructure sector to find a Project Engineer to join their Infrastructure Operations team. This is a hands-on role working across a portfolio of capital projects that shape the way millions of people experience the city every day.

The Role

• Support Project Managers on the delivery of large-scale CAPEX programmes.
• Review and comment on engineering documentation – ensuring designs are fit for purpose, compliant, and pragmatic.
• Conduct site inspections and quality assurance checks.
• Work closely with contractors and stakeholders to resolve issues quickly and keep projects on track.
• Operate within NEC contract frameworks and CDM regulations.

What We’re Looking For

• Degree qualified in Civil or Structural Engineering (essential).
• Strong background in civil/structural projects (client-side or contractor-side).
• Experience in reviewing and commenting on designs – not delivering design directly.
• Flexible mindset – able to work across office and site, with occasional night work when required.
• Comfortable in fast-paced, revenue-driven environments, where delivery and pragmatism matter most.

Desirable:

• TfL or other regulated transport project experience.
• NEC contract knowledge.
• Safety certifications (SMSTS, NEBOSH, IOSH).
• Chartered status.

Why Apply?

• Join a forward-thinking, innovative organisation at the forefront of infrastructure and media.
• Work on high-impact projects where your input directly affects outcomes.
• Be part of a collaborative, supportive culture with clear progression opportunities.
• Salary up to £60,000 + benefits.
• Immediate start available – if you’re ready, so are they.

Apply now if you’re a Civil or Structural Engineer looking for your next challenge, and want to be part of projects that combine engineering excellence with real-world commercial impact.
