CivilConstruction Management
Site Engineer
Site Engineers translate engineering designs into physical infrastructure on a construction site. They manage setting-out, quality control, contract compliance, and the daily coordination between designers, contractors, subcontractors, and skilled trades. The role sits squarely at the design-delivery interface — exactly where most engineering failure modes live, and where most knowledge gets lost.
UK band: £32,000 – £52,000
5 Pathways
CivilGeotechnical
Geotechnical Designer
Geotechnical Designers analyse ground conditions and design the foundations, retaining structures, and earthworks that everything else stands on. Deep-pile design in London clay, dewatering schemes below the water table, slope stability on cuttings — the work that determines whether the rest of the engineering above ground stays where it's meant to.
UK band: £35,000 – £58,000
5 Pathways
MechanicalBuilding Services (MEP)
Building Services Engineer
Building Services Engineers design the mechanical, electrical, and public-health systems that make buildings habitable — HVAC, hydronic systems, electrical distribution, water and drainage, lifts, fire safety integration. They sit at the intersection of three disciplines and increasingly own the net-zero retrofit conversation. CIBSE chartership pathway is the standard route.
UK band: £34,000 – £62,000
5 Pathways
CivilStructural
Structural Designer
Structural Designers conceive and analyse the load-bearing systems that hold buildings, bridges, and infrastructure up — steel frames, concrete shells, composite floor systems, lateral stability schemes, foundation interfaces. The role demands rigorous Eurocode application combined with engineering judgement on what the standards don't quite cover. IStructE chartership is the standard track.
UK band: £35,000 – £65,000
5 Pathways
CivilRail Infrastructure
Rail Systems Engineer
Rail Systems Engineers design and deliver the infrastructure that makes railway operations possible — track, signalling, power supply, station structures, tunnel ventilation, depot facilities. The work spans Civil, Electrical, and Systems disciplines, with intense regulatory oversight from Network Rail, ORR, RSSB, and IRSE. UK rail investment programmes (HS2, Northern Powerhouse Rail, TfL upgrades) make this one of the highest-demand specialisms.
UK band: £38,000 – £68,000

Trade Specialist + Master Trade roles

City & Guilds · NVQ · MCS · NICEIC · Gas Safe pathway roles across the skilled trades that deliver what the chartered tier designs.

RenewablesSolar PV Installation
Solar PV Installer
Solar PV Installers turn renewable-energy designs into installed, certified, grid-connected systems. The work sits at the intersection of electrical and mechanical disciplines — roof anchoring, DC array sizing, inverter selection, BS 7671-compliant grid interfacing, MCS certification compliance. As the Net Zero transition accelerates, this is one of the fastest-growing trade-tier roles in the UK.
UK band: £28,000 – £48,000
