Field Architectural Building Engineer

CHANCE Recruitment is looking for an experienced Field Architectural Building Engineer to support a major Decommissioning & Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) project based at Point Of Ayr, Talacre.

This is a site-based opportunity for an engineer who understands what it takes to take architectural requirements from design and specification through to practical delivery onsite.

You'll work across architectural, structural, and multidisciplinary interfaces, helping ensure building modules and associated architectural works meet project requirements while supporting the wider delivery team.

And with a £550 per day rate and Outside IR35 status, this is a strong opportunity for an experienced contractor looking for their next project.

Your role

As Field Architectural Building Engineer, you'll support architectural engineering activities across the project, working closely with the client, subcontractors, procurement and wider engineering teams.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Reviewing client technical documentation and project requirements, maintaining accurate project technical files.
• Coordinating external architectural engineering subcontractors and reviewing their design deliverables.
• Reviewing design specifications and coordinating architectural and structural design for building modules onsite.
• Supporting the main structural aspects of buildings and defining appropriate materials, with consideration for structural integrity.
• Preparing design specifications for architectural works and supporting civil work specifications relevant to buildings.
• Developing functional architectural layouts using input from multiple disciplines.
• Preparing material specifications and the architectural basis of design for buildings onsite.
• Supporting Procurement with technical interfaces relating to architectural vendors.

This is a role where technical knowledge, attention to detail and the ability to coordinate across disciplines will be critical to your success.

Who we're looking for

We're looking for an experienced architectural building professional who is comfortable working in a construction-site project environment and understands the demands of complex engineering projects.

You'll need:

• 5+ years' experience in architectural building activities within a construction-site environment.
• Industry experience within Oil & Gas, Industrial or Commercial projects.
• Strong knowledge of architectural documentation and material management.
• Experience reviewing technical and design documentation.
• The ability to coordinate with subcontractors, clients, procurement and multidisciplinary project teams.
• Strong communication and client relationship skills.

We're particularly interested in people who can combine architectural expertise with practical onsite understanding - someone who can look beyond the drawing or specification and understand how the solution needs to work in the field.
