Structural Engineer - Steel Structures and Reinforced Concrete

Location: Milan

Work mode: Hybrid

Contract type: Contract/Permanent

Start date: As soon as possible

Compensation: Competitive

Project reference: Structural analysis, design and verification - steel and reinforced concrete structures, onshore/offshore projects

Client: Confidential - engineering organisation active in onshore/offshore wind projects

About the client

Our client is an engineering organisation delivering technical solutions for onshore/offshore wind projects. Its engineering teams cover multiple disciplines, working together to develop, verify and document the structural solutions that underpin each project. The organisation operates in an international context, which means collaboration across locations and with colleagues from different technical backgrounds is part of everyday work. Structural quality, traceability of calculations and consistency between disciplines are central to how the teams deliver.

Project scope

The role covers structural analysis, design and verification of steel and reinforced concrete structures. The engineer contributes to the development of technical solutions and to the preparation of the technical documentation that demonstrates compliance with project requirements and applicable codes and standards.

The position sits within a multidisciplinary engineering team, working in a hybrid pattern and contributing to design reviews, technical discussions and the continuous update of project deliverables. The engineer works alongside more experienced colleagues who review calculations and deliverables, and is expected to grow in autonomy as familiarity with the project and its requirements increases. Clear written communication matters as much as technical accuracy, since calculations, drawings and design notes are reviewed by colleagues from several disciplines and must be understood without further explanation.

Role overview

Carry out structural analysis, design and verification activities for steel and reinforced concrete structures, contributing to the development of technical solutions and collaborating with the engineering teams involved in the project. The role supports the production of technical documentation and ensures that design solutions remain compliant with technical requirements and applicable standards. This is a hands-on engineering position for someone with a solid grounding in structural fundamentals who wants to apply them to complex, multidisciplinary projects and keep developing technically.
