Senior Civil Engineer – Milan

You’re a civil engineer who sees more than calculations and drawings.

You see the ground beneath complex ideas.

You understand how thoughtful civil design quietly enables everything above it to perform, scale and endure.

And you’re ready for a role where your judgement, experience and curiosity genuinely matter.

At Black & White Engineering, we’re growing our Central Milan team to meet the accelerating demand of Italy’s data centre market. This is a chance to step into a senior role where your work will shape critical infrastructure, influence design outcomes and help set the standard for what comes next.

What’s in it for you?

This is a role designed around trust, ownership and progression .

A highly collaborative, multi disciplinary environment

You’ll be in an an environment where civil engineering is valued as a critical enabler — not an afterthought.

Work on technically challenging projects

You’ll work on complex projects from early concept through to delivery, with the space to apply your judgement, solve problems creatively and see the real world impact of your decisions.

As our Milan office grows, so does the opportunity to grow with it

You’ll be supported to develop professionally, deepen your technical expertise, and, if you choose, take on mentoring or leadership responsibilities as the team expands. All while being part of one global business that values clarity, integrity and people who enjoy working together.

The impact you can have

In this role, your contribution will be felt quickly and meaningfully.

Your priority impact will come through:

• Delivering robust civil engineering design across complex data centre projects, ensuring technical quality, buildability and compliance at every stage
• Applying sound engineering judgement to solve problems, manage interfaces and support successful project delivery
• Collaborating closely with multi disciplinary teams, clients and external partners to achieve coordinated, high quality outcomes
• Supporting project performance, including programme awareness, budget responsibility and change control
• Helping develop others, sharing knowledge and contributing to a positive, supportive engineering culture as the Milan team grows

In addition, you will be joining a community that prioritises ongoing learning and development through regular knowledge sharing sessions and investment in accredited professional courses and educational programmes. You set the pace for your professional development-whatever direction you choose, you’ll receive full support along the way.
