An opportunity for a structural engineer to enjoy the considerable rewards of a career in the forensic investigations sector. You will learn to apply all of your existing engineering expertise and talent in a role providing exceptional variety and technical intrigue. This industry sits outside the mainstream tender (and framework) driven consulting sector, fee margins are lucrative and demand remains strong throughout economic cycles. The position will ideally suit an engineer who thrives on technically stimulating work and is keen to make career progress. The Company A leading international forensic investigations consultancy, highly regarded for their built environment expertise. Their civil and structural engineers investigate and determine the root cause of civil engineering and structural failures within the buildings, highways, rail, development infrastructure, industrial and energy sectors. Their findings are regularly used to settle litigation cases and act as a catalyst to improve existing design and construction methods. They are an admired employer providing generous terms and conditions of employment, plus excellent career development opportunities. Your Role You will be investigating the cause and origin of civil and structural defects through to catastrophic failures, and your findings will be used to resolve legal disputes, claims and to improve standards in the UK and internationally. During initial site investigations you will typically oversee field testing, gather photographic evidence and interview witnesses. This information will enable you to unravel the cause of the failure. You will then prepare a report that provides a clear explanation of your findings. This needs to be expressed in a way that can be understood by those from a non-technical background, whilst being robust enough to pass scrutiny should litigation arise. Your assignments will be aligned to your technical expertise with the support of civil, structural, geotechnical and materials colleagues. Your Profile A degree qualified engineer with upwards of five years consulting engineering experience. This could have been gained working within building structures, civil structures or civil infrastructure. Naturally inquisitive with the ability to apply lateral thinking skills to resolve complex engineering problems. A good communicator capable of preparing well written reports and clearly articulating engineering concepts. Training & Progression Support will be provided to enable you to apply your specialist technical expertise from a forensic investigation perspective. You will learn how to carry out investigations and present your findings. Growth and consistent demand for their services provide plenty of scope for career progression to director level, and you will have the opportunity to benefit from additional training to become an expert witness. Additional Remuneration In addition to the base salary their profit share scheme offers significant additional income.

Interpret and communicate results into clear, decision-ready advice for clients and design teams (mitigation optioneering, levels/FFL strategy, safe access/egress, residual risk, exceedance routing, floodplain compensation concepts where applicable). Produce and sign-off technical reports/appendices suitable for regulator review and planning/design submissions; respond to technical queries and challenge. Lead and manage stakeholder engagement with EA/LLFAs/LPAs and other technical reviewers (method agreement, meetings, review responses). Coordinate interfaces with drainage, civils, highways, geotechnical and planning teams to ensure consistent assumptions and integrated outcomes. Resource-plan and delegate tasks; mentor junior modellers; maintain consistent standards, templates, and auditable file/version control. Contribute to bids: scope, methodology, programme, assumptions, risks and fee inputs; identify follow-on opportunities. For your part you will possess:- Strong UK consultancy experience leading hydrology and hydraulic modelling projects, including delivery governance (scope/programme/budget/risk/QA). Demonstrable hydrology competence: flow estimation and hydrograph development; confident selection of methods appropriate to catchment type, data availability and study purpose; able to communicate uncertainty and sensitivity clearly. Strong hydraulic modelling understanding (stability, mesh/timestep, roughness, structures representation, boundary conditions, calibration/validation where possible). Confident client-facing communicator with excellent technical writing and project management discipline. Advanced capability in one or more of: TUFLOW, Flood Modeller, InfoWorks ICM. Strong GIS skills (QGIS/ArcGIS) for data preparation and mapping outputs.
