Preconstruction Engineer
============================

West London \| £70,000 – £80,000 \+ Benefits

*Shape Landmark Projects Before They Break Ground…*

Are you an engineer who enjoys solving complex construction challenges long before work starts on site?

We’re working with a leading specialist basement and structural engineering contractor that has been delivering some of London’s most technically demanding projects for over 30 years. With a reputation built on engineering excellence, innovation and problem\-solving, the business continues to secure prestigious high\-end residential schemes across the capital, with project values reaching £15m.

As part of their continued growth, they’re looking to appoint a Preconstruction Engineer to play a key role in shaping project delivery strategies, influencing design decisions and developing innovative construction solutions from the earliest stages.

If you enjoy buildability, temporary works, construction sequencing and finding smarter ways to deliver challenging projects, this is an opportunity to work on some of the most complex basement and structural engineering schemes in London.

The Role
------------

Working closely with technical, commercial and operational teams, you’ll be involved in projects from concept through to handover, helping to develop robust delivery strategies that set projects up for success.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Developing construction methodologies and sequencing strategies for complex basement and structural engineering projects

  • Providing technical input on temporary works, excavation support and ground engineering solutions

  • Assessing buildability and identifying opportunities to improve programme, safety and efficiency

  • Supporting early\-stage cost planning, programme development and risk management activities

  • Collaborating with consultants, designers and project delivery teams throughout the preconstruction process

  • Preparing tender submissions and ensuring smooth project handovers to operational teams
About You
-------------

You’ll have experience within a preconstruction, project engineering or technical engineering role and be comfortable working on complex construction projects where early planning and engineering expertise are critical.

We’re particularly interested in candidates with experience in:

  • Basement construction

  • Structural engineering projects

  • Geotechnical or ground engineering works

  • Temporary works and enabling works packages
You’ll also bring:
  • Strong technical and problem\-solving skills

  • A solid understanding of construction sequencing and buildability

  • The ability to interpret technical drawings and challenge design solutions where appropriate

  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills

  • An engineering qualification or relevant industry experience
Why Join?
-------------

This is an opportunity to join one of London’s most respected specialist contractors and work on projects that genuinely challenge conventional construction thinking.

You’ll benefit from:

  • Working on architecturally significant, high\-value projects across London

  • Exposure to innovative engineering techniques and complex temporary works solutions

  • The opportunity to influence projects from concept through to construction

  • A secure pipeline of long\-term work and continued business growth

  • A collaborative team environment where technical expertise is highly valued

  • Excellent career progression within a recognised industry leader
If you’re looking for a role where your engineering expertise can make a tangible impact before construction even begins, we’d love to hear from you.
