Job Description
We are looking for an experienced and motivated individual to fill the role of Building Standards Senior Structural Engineer and help us drive forward our programme to continually reshape our services in response to demands.
Edinburgh is a dynamic and growing city, and the Building Standards Team has a key role in the continued development of our capital city by processing around 5000 building warrants a year. We aim to provide a seamless development consent process with close collaboration between professionals in different service areas. You can be part of this exciting journey, helping to facilitate these opportunities whilst ensuring construction works within the city are designed and built to meet safety standards, further sustainable development and ensure the safety of people in and around buildings.
You would be responsible for verifying structural aspects of building warrant applications for compliance with the Scottish Building Regulations and mandatory standards. Further, you may be required to carry out inspections of building works and of dangerous/defective buildings offering structural advice to customers and assisting Building Standards Surveyors. You will have the ability to work as part of a team or on your own initiative to manage a diverse caseload. You will have good communication, IT and organisational skills and be committed to a high standard of customer care.
We are working in a hybrid way at this time and those who are able to work from home will be permitted to do so, as and when necessary. Our modern open-plan offices are in Edinburgh City Centre, 5 minutes’ walk from Waverley Station.
Requirements
If you are interested, you should bring relevant experience, a strong sense of customer service, excellent communication skills, a clear understanding of quality assurance and an appetite for project delivery and continuous improvement. If successful, two references will be required.
We're committed to creating a workplace culture where all our people feel valued, included and able to be their best at work, and we recognise the benefits that a diverse workforce with different values, beliefs, experience, and backgrounds brings to us as an organisation.
