Techniche Global Ltd Looking for Principal CS&A Engineer at Warrington Full Time

Techniche Global are supporting an engineering defence contractor to appoint a Principal CS&A Engineer. You will form a leading role within a dynamic design team undertaking the design of a major nuclear decommissioning project. After completion of that project there may be opportunities for further work on traditional, bespoke and innovative designs of reinforced concrete, steel and masonry structures for nuclear decommissioning and nuclear new build projects, as well as support to operating nuclear sites. 

The projects you undertake will principally be in relation to design of structures associated with state-of-the-art  mechanical handling equipment and their process and electrical systems, but can also involve stand-alone civil/structural tasks for a range of sectors. For example, structural inspections and site surveys. These surveys will be undertaken primarily for sites across the UK with some projects based internationally. Due to the nature of our projects, you will design to various normal and extreme loading scenarios, including seismic design.  You will provide technical leadership and expertise, and you will take on the role of Technical Lead on specific projects when required.

The initial project will require that the suitable candidate has a good understanding of reinforced concrete structures and any modification of same. A clear knowledge of steelwork structures and piling foundation systems will be required. A knowledge of marine / dockside and water retaining structures would be advantageous but not essential. This role will be undertaken under the CNL agile working procedures and may entail both working from home and office based work.
