Structural Engineer

Criterion Capital is a family-owned, entrepreneurial private property company with a growing portfolio across hospitality, residential, and commercial sectors. Due to continued expansion, we are seeking an experienced Structural Engineer to join our Architectural and Development team. Operating as a developer, asset manager, and owner/operator, Criterion Capital delivers a growing pipeline of redevelopment, refurbishment, and commercial-to-residential conversion projects across Greater London.

You will lead structural design from feasibility through technical design and construction, with a focus on existing building conversions, refurbishment, adaptations, and new-build projects. Working closely with architects, consultants, contractors, and internal development and construction teams, you will deliver safe, cost-effective, and buildable solutions in line with programme, budget, and quality requirements.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead structural design, analysis, calculations, and assessments for redevelopment, refurbishment, conversion, and new-build projects.
• Produce and review structural drawings, specifications, calculations, and technical reports for planning, tender, and construction.
• Ensure compliance with UK Building Regulations, Eurocodes, and relevant British Standards.
• Coordinate structural design with architectural, building services, and other engineering disciplines.
• Manage external consultants and resolve technical issues throughout design and construction.
• Identify structural risks, value engineering opportunities, and cost-effective solutions, particularly for existing buildings.
• Support statutory submissions, building control approvals, contractor queries, and design changes through delivery.

About You

We are looking for a technically capable, commercially aware Structural Engineer with strong UK design experience and a practical understanding of construction. You will take ownership of structural design, coordinate consultants, and deliver pragmatic engineering solutions that balance compliance, cost, programme, and buildability.

Skills & Experience

• A bachelor's or master's degree in Structural Engineering, Civil Engineering, or a related discipline.
• A minimum of 3 years' post-graduate structural design experience, with UK experience essential.
• Experience in redevelopment, refurbishment, building conversions, or adaptive reuse projects.
• Strong knowledge of UK Building Regulations, Eurocodes, and British Standards.
• Proficiency in structural design software such as MasterSeries, Robot, ETABS, or TEDDS, alongside AutoCAD and/or Revit.
• Experience producing structural calculations, technical reports, and construction drawings.
• Strong coordination, communication, and problem-solving skills, with experience managing consultants and working with contractors.
• Chartered status with IStructE or ICE, or working towards chartership, would be advantageous.

The Person

You will be a hands-on, solutions-focused engineer with the confidence to challenge design assumptions, manage consultants, and resolve complex structural and construction issues. You will understand the practical challenges of working with existing buildings and deliver solutions that balance structural integrity, compliance, cost, and programme.

Commercially aware, proactive, and detail-oriented, you will take accountability for design quality and timely delivery while working collaboratively across development, architectural, and construction teams.

If you are an experienced Structural Engineer with strong UK design experience and the technical judgement to deliver redevelopment, refurbishment, and conversion projects, we would welcome your application.
