The opportunity

At SUTHERLAND FACADES, we believe the building envelope is far more than glass and aluminium. It is where architecture, engineering, sustainability and human experience come together. We engineer façades that improve human wellbeing, deliver measurable performance and create lasting architectural legacy across Sub-Saharan Africa.

You will work within a specialist façade engineering team on a diverse range of projects, including high-rise buildings, commercial offices, airports, hospitals, residential developments and landmark mixed-use projects.

The role will expose you to façade structural engineering, glass engineering, wind engineering, thermal performance, building physics, parametric design, digital modelling and site-based quality assurance.

You will work alongside experienced façade engineers, architects and multidisciplinary design teams, with strong mentorship and the opportunity to develop into a specialist engineer.

Requirements

• BEng or BSc in Civil Engineering Degree, or a related qualification;
• A graduate with up to two years’ experience;
• Has a passion for buildings, people and good design;
• Curious about how buildings perform;
• Enjoys solving complex engineering problems;
• Communicates well and works effectively in a team; and
• is eager to learn and develop within a specialist field.
• Experience in structural steel design would be an advantage.
• Experience or a strong interest in Rhino, Grasshopper and Revit would also be beneficial, particularly in parametric design and digital workflow integration.

Our design philosophy
Our work is guided by three principles:

Build Legacy
Design buildings that future generations will inherit with pride.

Design for Human Wellbeing
Create façades that improve the everyday experience of the people who occupy and use our buildings.

Design by Performance
Use engineering, data and measurable outcomes to create buildings that perform throughout their life.

We do not just engineer buildings. We engineer the human experience in and around them.
