The role
This is an exciting time to join Hoare Lea as we position ourselves in a fast-changing industry, where we as acoustic engineers have a vital role in developing healthy, attractive, and valuable places for future generations. We are large enough to provide stability and opportunity, and small enough to recognise our people as individuals; this has led to a culture of flexibility, individualism, and organic growth.
“Standing in a building, knowing you helped craft solutions that made it what it is: how it feels, how it functions, how it looks, how it SOUNDS… That’s the moment great design comes to life.”
We are looking for a Graduate Acoustics Engineer with a building acoustics interest to join our Bristol or London based team.

- Undertaking calculations and analysis using in-house developed programs and commercial software.
- Liaising and attending meetings with clients and project teams.
- Producing clear advice in written documents, sketches, presentations, audio demos, and interactive media
- Contributing to a culture of creativity and innovation, influencing improvements in acoustic quality.
What we are looking for
- A bachelors or master’s degree related to Acoustic Engineering.
- A degree in another discipline will be considered if complemented with an IOA Diploma.
- Excellent communication, analytical and organisational skills.
- Ability to work both in a team environment and independently.
