Alchemy Recruitment Consulting - Brisbane QLD
We're seeking an experienced Project Engineer to support the early-stage development of a major resources project in South Australia.
This is an initial 3-month contract working closely with the Principal Engineer and broader project team, helping progress engineering packages through the early phases of project definition and development.
The Role
This is an early-stage project engineering position, rather than a construction-focused role. You'll be involved in developing scope, coordinating engineering activities and ensuring packages are sufficiently defined to progress into later project phases.
Responsibilities will include:
Support the Principal Engineer across early project development activities
Develop and refine scopes of work, technical requirements and engineering deliverables
Coordinate engineering across internal disciplines, consultants and vendors
Support option studies, design reviews and technical evaluations
Manage interfaces and identify scope gaps between engineering packages
Coordinate vendor/package engineering and technical queries
Review drawings, specifications, calculations and vendor documentation
Support cost, schedule, risk and constructability discussions
Track engineering actions and deliverables through to closeout
Ensure engineering work aligns with project standards and governance requirements
Project Scope
The role will have a strong water infrastructure focus, including:
Pipelines and piping systems
Pumps and pumping infrastructure
Water treatment systems
Dams and associated infrastructure
Mechanical, Civil and/or E&I; interfaces
About You
Approximately 5-10 years' project engineering experience
Experience across study, concept, definition or early engineering phases
Ability to develop and manage engineering scopes and packages
Strong multidisciplinary and vendor coordination skills
Mechanical, Civil or E&I; engineering background
Mining, resources or major-project experience highly regarded
Robust stakeholder management and communication skills
Location & Contract
Adelaide based - approximately 95% office-based
Occasional site travel as required
Initial 3-month contract
Adelaide-based candidates preferred, although candidates able to travel into Adelaide and work from the office each week may also be considered
This is an excellent opportunity for a Project Engineer who enjoys the front-end of major projects, working closely with senior engineering stakeholders to develop and define packages ahead of execution.
