Roof Truss Designer
£30,000 - £40,000 + Annual Bonus (up to 15%) + Hybrid/Remote Options
Warrington (Office-based with flexibility for hybrid or fully remote working)

A rare and exciting opportunity for an experienced Roof Truss Designer to join a well-established, family-owned business during a period of expansion, offering long-term progression, training and the chance to work on major national housebuilding projects.

Do you have experience designing roof trusses using MiTek or similar systems? Are you looking for a role with strong career prospects in a company that values its people and operates with a "family business" ethos?

This company is a well-established and trusted supplier within the construction industry, working with leading housebuilders on residential projects across the region and beyond. With a strong and growing workforce, their design function plays a key role in the business, and as part of their ongoing expansion plans, they are looking to strengthen their design team.

As a Roof Truss Designer, you'll be responsible for interpreting architectural drawings, breaking down roofs for design and manufacture, and liaising with site teams throughout the process. The role is primarily design-focused (around 70-80%), with some administrative and client contact elements (20-30%). While the role is Warrington-based, there is flexibility for hybrid or even 100% remote working for the right candidate.

The ideal candidate will have proven experience designing timber roof trusses, preferably using MiTek software, and a solid understanding of residential projects.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a growing business that offers training, clear progression routes, and a supportive team environment.

The Role

• Interpret architectural and engineering drawings to design roof trusses.
• Break down roof structures and prepare detailed designs using MiTek systems.
• Produce accurate costings and input data into the system for pricing.
• Liaise with technical sales managers and site teams to support project delivery.
• Amend designs where necessary and provide technical support during installation.
• Occasionally visit sites (rarely required).

The Person

• Experienced Roof Truss Designer with strong technical skills.
• Skilled in MiTek Pamir or similar truss design software (desirable).
• Background in residential projects and timber frame construction.
• Strong attention to detail and the ability to work independently or as part of a team.
• Excellent communication skills and a "can-do" attitude.
