About the position:

We are seeking a Plant Engineer Civil to spearhead technical and engineering support for our regional maintenance function. In this role, you won't just be managing assets—you will be the driving force behind improving the health, reliability, and longevity of critical regional civil infrastructure (including roads, aqueducts, drainage systems, and intakes).

As a technical leader, you will bridge the gap between high-level engineering strategy and hands-on maintenance, mentoring teams on the ground while managing risks, defects, and minor improvement projects.





This is a full-time 100% site based, Drive-in Drive-Out (DIDO) role based in Cabramurra, with on-site accommodation and facilities provided. The position operates on an alternating 4-day work week roster (8 days per fortnight).

Key Responsibilities:

- Serve as the regional subject matter expert. Coach, mentor, and upskill on-site maintenance teams to build overall engineering capability.
- Conduct site inspections and technical condition assessments. Evaluate current maintenance routines, identify improvement opportunities, and optimise asset longevity.
- Lead investigations into civil defects, conduct root-cause analyses, and implement proactive mitigation strategies for aging infrastructure to ensure maximum operational safety.
- Plan, manage, and execute minor civil maintenance projects. Supervise contractors and represent the region's interests in major capital projec
