Our client is one of the world's leading technical service providers boasting over 100,000 employees worldwide and an annual revenue of over ???19 billion.

With this, they've become a market leader in modern working practice offering flexible conditions to work around you and your hectic lifestyle.

They now seek a Chartered Principal Structural Engineer to aid their further growth in their busy Hampshire office.

Their work involves the modelling of loading and the response of structures or components. The techniques employed bring value to situations where there is unusual loading, structural form or material when conventional codes of practice do not fully describe the problem. They regularly consider seismic effects, undertake stress analysis and investigate the dynamic effects due to blast or impact.

Members of the team have wide ranging experience and they deliver to clients across the nuclear, transportation, commercial and oil and gas industries.

The Principal Structural Engineering Analyst will lead the delivery of projects incorporating a significant quantity of finite element or computational fluid dynamics analysis in order to bring benefits to their clients

Responsibilities:

*

Lead in the preparation of finite element analyses and/or computational fluid dynamics analyses
*

Lead the preparation of reports on analyses undertaken for client submission
*

Conduct independent technical checking and review of analyses led by others
*

Supervise the production of analyses and client deliverables
*

Control project delivery in order to deliver to results on time and budget

Experienced in the advanced use of a commercially available finite element software package (e.g. ANSYS, LUSAS, STAAD) including non-linear, time and frequency domain methods. Experience using ANSYS preferred.
*

Ability to communicate in the English language, both written and verbal, with an excellent ability to explain complex engineering principals in a manner which can be understood by a non-specialist
*

Able to decide on the level of reliance and accuracy to attach to a variety of results obtained from finite element analysis and to interpret results into practical engineering solutions
*

Demonstrable track record in the delivery of projects for clients, or the ability to demonstrate significant contribution towards project delivery
*

Able to work on a range of projects simultaneously

Preferred Qualifications

*

Masters degree in an appropriate Civil or Structural engineering discipline, ideally with a depth of study in finite element, finite difference, CFD methods or seismic or dynamic analysis or similar subjects
*

Bachelors degree (min. 2:1) in an appropriate Civil or Structural engineering discipline
*
