About The Opportunity

Are you an experienced drafter looking to take ownership of major projects while helping shape the next generation of drafting talent?

At Holcim Australia, we are passionate about building progress for people and the planet. Our Humes precast concrete division is looking for a collaborative, technically skilled Senior Draftsperson to join our Technical Services team based in our Milton (Brisbane) office.

Reporting directly to the Lead Design Draftsperson, you will play a pivotal role in delivering high‑quality engineering shop drawings for precast reinforced concrete elements used in projects across Australia. This is a fantastic opportunity to work independently,



set the pace for drafting excellence, and act as a supportive mentor to our junior team members.

What You’ll Do (Key Responsibilities)

- Document engineering shop drawings for precast reinforced concrete elements, ensuring they are accurate, timely, and perfectly suited for manufacture.
- Actively oversee timelines for multiple projects to ensure efficient workflows and swift responses to team requirements.
- Utilise high‑level AutoCAD proficiency (2D and 3D) to enhance templates, optimise library components (e.g., Dynamic Blocks), and work on new product developments.
- Support and guide junior drafting staff, helping to elevate their skills, maintain high quality standards, and foster a positive team environment.
- Conduct independent drafting checks as part of our QA processes, maintain accurate project records, and champion a safe system of work.
- Apply critical thinking to ensure drawings are not just accurate on a screen, but are highly practical, optimised for production, and suitable for manufacture in our factories.
- Build strong, constructive relationships with internal engineers, factory staff, and external consultants to resolve bottlenecks smoothly.

What You’ll Bring (About You)

- Credible drafting experience, specifically within structural or precast concrete environments.




- Advanced expertise in AutoCAD (both 2D and 3D applications).
- An Advanced Diploma from a technical college (or equivalent). Tertiary qualifications are highly regarded but not essential.
- A proven ability to look at complex designs critically, anticipating manufacturing or construction challenges before they arise.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills, a strong work ethic, and the natural ability to train and mentor others.
- The ability to prioritise workload effectively to meet competing deadlines using the wider drafting team as needed.
