Before joining Engenuiti in September 2021, I studied Civil and Structural Engineering at Sheffield University for 4 years. I specialised in Structural Engineering, with my Masters dissertation focusing on disaster relief structures which could be built from the local flora of a region.
Over the last few months, I’ve learned that one of the best things about Engenuiti is the support you get from everyone on the team. When I first arrived, I was nervous I would be left on my own. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Everyone was more than willing to help me if I was struggling with a specific piece of work. Also, Engenuiti has a great social life. There are regular team drinks and activities, which create a tight knit team environment.
The job has been busy from the first week. My first task was designing timber connections for a project. This is a specific area that I had never really covered at university, so it was fantastic to get the opportunity to work on something I had never done before. It was a steep learning curve in the first two weeks, however, the job was made a lot simpler with the fantastic support I received
One of my first projects was a leisure centre. It was a great project to work on in my first two months as it allowed me to design several different elements such as steel beams, concrete columns, retaining walls and pile caps. The project also enabled me to learn different design software. Getting all this experience in my first two months at Engenuiti was brilliant and kept me very busy.
If you are someone who wants to work in a successful and happy team environment, taking on significant and important work from your first day, then Engenuiti is the place for you.
