F-3008 - Head of Engineering (Structures)
Mekdam Technical Services
This role isn't typical for recent grads, but it's worth understanding what senior engineering leadership looks like. If you're early in a structural engineering career, studying how experienced heads of engineering operate—their technical depth, their oversight of teams, their work across oil and gas and offshore projects—gives you a roadmap for the next decade.
The Head of Engineering will oversee structural design, construction, and operations for complex facilities. You'll manage contractor and vendor relationships, ensure compliance with design standards and safety codes, coordinate across large organizations, and drive engineering administration. This is senior-level responsibility in a technical discipline.
You need a bachelor's degree in structural engineering and 10 years of industry experience (including 6 years in oil and gas, 3 years offshore, and 2 years in a supervisory role). Strong command of English, structural analysis software, project management systems, and Microsoft Office is essential. You'll also need solid planning, communication, and analytical skills.
