Senior Project Engineer – Civil Construction

Location: Ballarat. Victoria, Australia

Employment Type: Full time

Take Ownership. Deliver Projects from Start to Finish.

BFC and EVM are recruiting an experienced Senior Project Engineer (SPE) to join our growing civil construction business, delivering a diverse portfolio of infrastructure projects. Ideally the SPE will have aspirations to grow into our General Manager role over time.

This role is ideal for an aspirational engineer who enjoys taking ownership of projects from award through to completion. Rather than managing one component of a large project, you’ll lead the full project lifecycle—working closely with clients, subcontractors and site teams to deliver successful outcomes.

The Opportunity

As a Senior Project Engineer, you will be responsible for the end-to-end delivery of multiple civil construction projects, including:

- Project planning and programming.

- Procurement of subcontractors and suppliers.

- Cost control, forecasting and financial management.

- Client and stakeholder management.

- Contract administration and project reporting.





- Quality, safety and environmental compliance.

- Leading site teams and coordinating construction activities.

- Managing project handover and close-out.

This is a hands-on leadership role where your ability to solve problems, build relationships and make decisions will be valued.

About You

We’re looking for someone who has:

- A degree in Civil Engineering or a related discipline.

- Proven experience delivering civil construction projects from commencement through to completion.

- Strong commercial and contractual understanding.

- Excellent planning, organisational and communication skills.

- The confidence to lead projects independently while working collaboratively with clients and internal teams.

- A practical, solutions-focused approach to project delivery.

Who This Role Suits

This opportunity is best suited to aspirational engineers with a growth mindset, who have managed complete projects and enjoy broad responsibility.

While experience on major infrastructure projects is welcome, we’re specifically looking for someone who has owned project outcomes—not someone whose experience has been limited to a single discipline or package within a large project environment.

What’s on Offer

- Diverse and interesting civil construction projects.

- Genuine autonomy and responsibility.

- Supportive leadership and collaborative team culture.

- Competitive remuneration package valued at $200k to $210k including salary, superannuation and a vehicle.

- Mentoring and coaching to grow into our next General Manager.

- Long-term career opportunities with a growing contractor.
