Apply your structural engineering skills to buildings that matter most — schools, hospitals and care facilities where safety, durability and operational continuity are paramount.

At Architecture Social, we partner with specialist structural engineering firms, healthcare design practices and education-sector consultancies who regularly need structural engineers with experience in regulated building environments. Our clients work within strict frameworks including healthcare technical memoranda and DfE design guidelines, and they value engineers who understand both the technical demands and the operational sensitivity of these building types. We maintain active shortlists so that we can connect you with the right project at the right time.

What our clients typically ask for:
— Chartered or near-chartered status with IStructE or ICE with at least four years of post-graduate experience
— Experience designing structures for schools, hospitals, laboratories or care facilities
— Familiarity with healthcare technical memoranda, BB103 school design guidelines and DfE design frameworks
— Proficiency in Tekla Structural Designer, AutoCAD and Revit
— Ability to produce calculation reports, drawing packages and structural specifications
— Experience coordinating with architects and building services engineers on complex, serviced buildings
— Skills in condition surveys and structural assessments of existing public sector buildings

If your structural engineering experience includes a commitment to the quality and safety of public buildings and you want to work on projects that directly serve communities, we want to hear from you.
