Opportunities exist in our Advanced Technical Services division in the London office for highly motivated Engineers interested in advanced engineering analysis.
The role will involve solving complex structural engineering problems by application of a range of sophisticated analysis and design techniques. A good theoretical and practical knowledge of the finite element method for non-linear and dynamic analysis would be very beneficial, as would experience in the development of software tools for solving engineering problems. Previous exposure to software development, wind engineering, seismic design, offshore structures, Computational Fluid Dynamics and numerical analysis techniques generally would also be desirable. Familiarity with UK and European design codes, standards and regulations is expected.
The ability to work independently or within a team structure and a practical approach to solving problems is essential. You will have excellent organizational, time management and communication (both written and verbal) skills.
