Structural Engineer
Are you ready to work on complex industrial facilities where structural engineering directly supports real‑world production and operations?
My client is seeking a Structural Engineer to join their multidisciplinary team supporting industrial and process‑driven facilities, with a strong emphasis on pulp & paper and general industrial projects.

Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Civil or Structural Engineering
- 4-8 years of experience in structural engineering
- Experience with industrial or process‑related structures strongly preferred
- Exposure to steel, concrete, and foundation design

- Gain exposure to complex, integrated projects early and often
- Build a long‑term career with a firm that values people as much as technical excellence
