About us

BBN Consulting is a South East QLD based environmental consultancy specialising in identification, assessment and management across contaminated land, defence, infrastructure and industrial projects.

Director-led since 2018 we have recently built our own asbestos identification laboratory at Yatala, operate under an integrated management system and hold CASA drone operating credentials. Our clients span demolition, energy, renewables and government, with recent projects ranging from decommissioning to commercial demolition.

About the role

You'll be based in Brisbane and spend most of your week in the field across South East Queensland, with regular regional travel and some overnight stays. 12 months in, you'll be independently running site inspections, sampling programs and monitoring, and producing reports our clients rely on to make critical decisions, with a director always a phone call away.

Fair warning: this is boots-and-PPE work on live demolition and industrial sites. If you'd rather be at a desk five days a week, this isn't the role.

Key responsibilities

- Conduct hazardous materials surveys and asbestos inspections across commercial, industrial and infrastructure sites

- Deliver contaminated land investigations including PSI/DSI, validation and waste classification sampling and reporting

- Run occupational hygiene and air monitoring programs (airborne asbestos fibres, respirable dust and silica)

- Prepare clear, well structured reports, registers and management plans

- Capture sites using drone photogrammetry and 3D laser scanning (we'll train you on our DJI drones and LiDAR scanners)

- Liaise directly with clients, contractors and site personnel

What we're looking for

- Tertiary qualification in environmental science, environmental health,



occupational hygiene, engineering or a related discipline

- Experience in environmental consulting or a comparable field role (hazmat, contaminated land, occupational hygiene or similar)

- Comfortable working independently on live construction, demolition and industrial sites

- Current driver's licence and construction White Card (or willingness to obtain one before starting)

- Willingness to travel regionally, including some overnight stays

Nice to have:

- Licensed Asbestos Assessor, or ability to obtain in the near future

- Working knowledge of the Queensland contaminated land framework (EP Act, NEPM 2013)

- Asbestos fibre identification/counting or laboratory experience

- RePL (drone licence) or experience with photogrammetry, GIS or 3D scanning
