Structural Drafter - AutoCAD / Revit / Teckla / Rhino | Temporary Works
AWE Consulting Group Pty Ltd - Elsternwick VIC
AWE Consulting Group is a boutique Melbourne-based structural engineering consultancy with over 18 years of hands-on industry experience. We specialise in temporary works engineering -formwork, falsework, scaffolding, propping, façade retention, crane assessments and more -across residential, commercial and civil projects.
We're not a big corporate firm and we have no intention of becoming one. What we are is a tight-knit, expert team that punches well above its weight - regularly delivering on Tier 1 projects alongside some of the most interesting construction challenges in Melbourne. With a growing team, we're now looking to bring an experienced structural drafter into the fold.
Who we're looking for
We're advertising this role at an intermediate to senior level - and we mean it. If you have 2+ years of experience and the right background, we want to hear from you. If you have significantly more and bring deeper technical capability or the ability to lead drawing quality across a team, we'd structure the role and the package to reflect that.
What matters most is that you have genuine temporary works experience (formwork, falsework, scaffolding, propping or similar) and you have a excellent attention to detail.
The role
This is a hands-on drafting role at the heart of AWE's design process. You'll work closely with our engineers to produce accurate, buildable structural drawings across a wide variety of temporary works projects. It's not a production-line drawing role, temporary works is a specialist discipline where drawings need to be coordinated with complex construction sequences, tight site constraints, and engineering intent that evolves as projects progress.
You'll be based in our Elsternwick office with great parking nearby,



working alongside our engineers in a collaborative environment where your contribution is visible and your development is genuinely supported.
What you'll actually be doing
Producing 2D structural drawings in AutoCAD for temporary works designs - formwork, falsework, scaffolding, propping, façade retention and demolition works
Developing 3D models to support design coordination and client/contractor communication (experience with Tekla; or Revit; or similar)
Working directly with engineers to interpret design intent and translate it into clear, accurate, site-ready drawings
Preparing and updating drawing registers, revision management, and QA checks on your own work
Coordinating with project stakeholders (including site teams and contractors) to resolve drawing queries and incorporate design changes
Contributing to continuous improvement of AWE's drafting standards, templates and workflows
At senior level: reviewing others' drawings, mentoring junior team members, and helping shape AWE's drawing quality standards
What we need from you
Essential - you'll need these to be considered:
Construction and/or temporary works background (formwork, falsework, scaffold, propping or similar preferred)
Ability to read and interpret structural engineering drawings and calculations
Victorian Driver's Licence
Preferred - these will set you apart:
AutoCAD 3D or other 3D drafting experience
Revit and/or Tekla and/or Rhino structures drafting experience
Experience reviewing or mentoring other drafters (senior candidates)
What's in it for you
Competitive salary package
Genuine variety, no two temporary works projects are the same, and the drawing challenges reflect that
A small team where your work is noticed and your development is taken seriously
Direct access to experienced engineers who understand the discipline and are happy to explain the 'why' behind the design
Elsternwick office with great parking and genuine flexibility in working hours
Training support and encouragement to grow your skills across 3D platforms and specialist temporary works drafting
