Eugenio Mayol
Director - Structural Engineering
The Structures Engineer, who floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee.
Professional Overview
Eugenio Mayol is a senior structural engineer and team leader who thrives on tackling complex, multi-disciplinary problems with passionate, high-performing people. He’s driven by variety and challenge, particularly in constrained environments, where constructability, staging, and interfaces decide success. Eugenio pairs deep technical rigor with client-facing pragmatism, enjoys the Construction Phase Support /on-site end of delivery, and pushes for early site exposure so designs are practical from early conceptualisation stage. His work style blends quiet, independent problem-solving with collaborative whiteboard sessions; he leans on advanced digital tools (Revit, 3D coordination, modern analysis suites) for clarity in 3D space while insisting that sound engineering judgement—not software—remains the final check. He actively mentors younger engineers, lifting their practical understanding alongside their technical skills, and values a strong team culture at CSS.
Looking ahead, Eugenio aims to continue leading major rail assignments while continuing to expand into resources, power and water programs, supporting renewables and critical infrastructure. A memorable project highlight was a forensic investigation of a partially collapsed timber cooling tower, combining drone reconnaissance, materials expertise, and modelling to reconstruct failure mechanisms illustrating his curiosity and calm under pressure. Outside work, he keeps active with boxing and cross-training, and unwinds in the garden, hands-on with a growing collection of fruiting plants. Time is limited and precious to Eugenio so he works on balancing leadership, delivery, and spending time with family, but his ethos is constant: practical, buildable solutions, thoughtful use of technology and a commitment to delivering outcomes clients can construct safely and confidently.
