Position Purpose

TAIT is seeking an experienced Senior Structural Engineer to join our Wakefield team, supporting the delivery of complex, bespoke projects across the live entertainment, experience, and automation sectors.

This role is suited to a highly capable engineer who can take ownership of structural analysis and design from concept through to delivery. Working within a multidisciplinary environment, you will apply strong analytical and problem-solving skills to develop safe, efficient, and innovative solutions for dynamic and often unconventional structures.

Responsibilities

Lead and deliver structural engineering analysis and design across a range of bespoke systems including structures, machinery, and rigging
Perform detailed calculations using hand methods, engineering judgement, and advanced analysis software
Translate conceptual designs into robust engineering solutions that meet client, regulatory, and internal requirements
Collaborate closely with design studios, project managers, and manufacturing teams to support project development and execution
Provide clear and timely communication of engineering results, risks, and recommendations
Ensure compliance with relevant UK and international standards and codes
Support and guide junior engineers, contributing to knowledge sharing and team development
Engage with external engineering partners and third-party consultants where required
Contribute to the continuous improvement of engineering tools, processes, and standards within TAIT
Participate in design reviews, project meetings, and technical discussions

Position Requirements

Bachelor’s degree (or higher) in Structural Engineering, Civil Engineering, or a related discipline
Extensive professional experience in structural engineering, with a strong focus on analysis and design
Demonstrated experience delivering complex or bespoke structures, ideally within entertainment, temporary works, or similarly challenging industries
Strong understanding of structural behaviour including stress, deflection, stability, and dynamic effects
Proficiency with structural analysis tools (e.g. RISA-3D, SAP2000, Robot, or equivalent)
Familiarity with relevant codes and standards (e.g. Eurocodes, BS standards, or international equivalents)
Experience designing with materials such as steel and aluminium; knowledge of composites is advantageous
Proven ability to work independently with minimal supervision while managing multiple priorities
Chartered Engineer status (CEng) or actively working towards chartership is desirable
Experience in entertainment engineering, stage machinery, or kinetic structures
Exposure to dynamic or moving structures and load cases
Experience working in a design-for-manufacture environment
Experience mentoring or supporting junior engineers

TAIT Benefits:

Competitive pension scheme with employer contributions
Life assurance (4x salary)
Medicash health cashback plan (covering dental, optical, and more)
Employee Assistance Program (EAP) with 24/7 support
Cycle to Work scheme
Income protection / critical illness cover
Optional private medical insurance (role/level dependent)
Paid annual leave starting at 22 days, increasing with service
UK bank holidays
