Site Engineer – Urban Development (Subdivisions)
Location: South East Queensland Build It Right—From Day One Every
subdivision looks clean and straightforward when it's finished. Straight
roads. Level lots. Services exactly where they need to be. But
anyone who's worked on one knows the reality—it's complex,
fast-moving, and full of variables. At our client, getting it right
starts on site. As a Site Engineer, you'll be at the heart of
delivery—working alongside supervisors, project managers, and crews
to make sure projects are built accurately, efficiently, and
without surprises. This is a role for someone who wants to be close
to the action—not stuck behind a desk. Why This Role Matters
Subdivision projects are won on paper—but they succeed or fail in
the field. Your role is to: Turn drawings into reality Solve
problems before they impact program or cost Keep the job moving
while maintaining quality When this role is done well, projects run
smoother, risks are reduced, and teams perform better. What You'll
Be Doing You'll be embedded in delivery, working across all aspects
of subdivision construction. You'll: Support the day-to-day
delivery of subdivision projects on site Interpret drawings and
ensure works are constructed to specification Manage QA
documentation, ITPs, and compliance requirements Coordinate
subcontractors and suppliers Assist with programming and tracking
progress against key milestones Identify and resolve site
issues—especially around services and ground conditions Support
cost control, variations, and reporting Work closely with survey
teams on set-out and verification You'll be part of the team making
sure the job actually works—not just looks good on paper. What




Makes This Role Different At our client, you won't be boxed into a
narrow function. You'll: Be exposed to the full lifecycle of
subdivision delivery Work closely with experienced supervisors and
PMs Get hands-on with real site challenges—utilities, drainage,
staging, sequencing Be trusted to take ownership as your capability
grows There's a clear pathway into Project Engineer and Project
Manager roles. About You You're someone who enjoys being on site
and solving real problems. You likely: Have wxisting experience in
civil construction (ideally subdivisions or similar) Hold a degree
in Civil Engineering or similar Understand how civil works are
actually built—not just designed Are proactive, organised, and
detail-focused Communicate well with crews, subcontractors, and
management Want to learn and take on more responsibility over time
Typical Projects Greenfield subdivisions Bulk earthworks and lot
shaping Roadworks and pavements Stormwater drainage systems Sewer
and water infrastructure Staged developments with live constraints

a focus on practical delivery and quality outcomes. What that means
for you: You'll be part of a growing contractor—not a large, rigid
structure Your work will be visible and valued You'll learn
directly from experienced delivery teams You'll grow quickly if you
take ownership What Success Looks Like Work delivered right first
time Issues identified early and solved quickly Strong
relationships with supervisors and crews Progress kept on track
with minimal rework If This Sounds Like You This is a chance to
build your career in a role where you: Learn fast Take ownership
And see the results of your work on the ground
