Introduction

About GEC?

As part of the broader Global Group, we’re continuing to grow our project capability and are looking for a talented Project Engineer to join our Brisbane team.

This is an opportunity to step into a role where you won’t be confined to one piece of the project lifecycle. You’ll gain exposure across tendering, planning, commercial management, project delivery and closeout, working alongside experienced leaders and directly with our clients.

Description

About the role

We’re looking for a capable and adaptable Project Engineer with around 2–3 years’ project experience who is ready to take greater ownership and broaden their project delivery capability.

Based in Brisbane, you’ll join a small, agile projects team and work across a diverse portfolio of opportunities and live projects. You’ll be involved from the early stages of understanding scope and developing tenders, through to scheduling, budgeting, execution and project closeout.

This role would suit someone who enjoys variety, thrives in a fast-moving environment and wants the opportunity to see projects through from start to finish rather than owning just one piece of the puzzle.

With purpose, respect and a driven mindset, you’ll contribute by:

- Supporting projects across the full lifecycle, from tender and planning through to execution and closeout
- Reviewing scopes of work and contributing to tender preparation, estimates and project proposals
- Developing and maintaining project schedules, budgets, forecasts and delivery plans
- Supporting procurement, subcontractor engagement and commercial activities
- Monitoring project costs,



progress, variations and key deliverables
- Preparing and maintaining project documentation, registers and reporting
- Working directly with clients and internal stakeholders to solve problems and keep projects moving
- Identifying project risks, priorities and opportunities and proactively driving solutions.

Here’s what you’ll need to thrive in this role:

- A Bachelor’s degree in Engineering – mechanical, civil, project or a related discipline
- Around 2–3 years’ experience within project engineering or project delivery
- Practical experience with project scheduling, budgeting and/or tendering
- Confidence interpreting scopes of work and project requirements
- Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to adapt when priorities change
- Strong organisation skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities
- Clear, confident communication skills and the ability to build relationships with clients and internal stakeholders
- A proactive mindset and genuine desire to take ownership and continue developing your career.

Experience within construction, energy, oil & gas, SMP, pipelines or infrastructure will be highly regarded, but we’re equally interested in the right person with robust project fundamentals, adaptability and the drive to learn.

Why join our team?

- Build genuine end-to-end project experience: Gain exposure from tender and planning right through to execution and closeout
- Accelerate your development:



Work closely with experienced project leaders and take on increasing responsibility as you grow
- Variety without being pigeonholed: Work across different projects, clients and stages of delivery
- Make an impact: Join a small, agile team where your ideas and contribution will genuinely be noticed
- Work directly with clients: Build commercial awareness and stakeholder capability alongside your technical experience
- Flexibility that works: We support flexible working arrangements, with a collaborative Brisbane office environment and the ability to work from home
- Be part of a growing Australian-owned business delivering critical energy and infrastructure projects.
