SENIOR PROJECT ENGINEER / PROJECT ENGINEER
Luxury Developer-Builder | Gold Coast
$125M Camilla | CA → PE Candidates Encouraged | Immediate Start
Build More Than Buildings. Build a Legacy.
Join QNY at the beginning of our next chapter.
Following the success of our flagship development,
No.21 Broadbeach
, QNY is preparing to commence
Camilla, our $125M luxury residential development
.
We're looking for an ambitious
Senior Project Engineer or Project Engineer
who wants more than a traditional contractor role and is ready for greater ownership, broader exposure and a genuine pathway toward
Project Management
.
High-performing Contract Administrators ready to transition into project delivery are strongly encouraged to apply.
At
QNY
, we're a privately owned, integrated developer-builder. We control the complete development lifecycle—from site acquisition and feasibility through design, procurement, construction, sales and delivery.
That creates a very different career chance.
You won't be one of twenty people managing a small piece of a project.
You'll have visibility across the whole development, direct access to the people making the decisions and the opportunity to influence the outcome.
The Opportunity
Working closely with the Project Manager and senior leadership, you'll join
Camilla from its early stages
and play an integral role in taking the development from pre-construction through to completion.
This is a hands-on project delivery role with genuine responsibility across technical, commercial and construction functions.
You'll be involved across:
Design management and consultant coordination
Procurement strategy and subcontractor engagement
Trade package scoping, tendering, negotiation and letting
Construction methodology and sequencing
Structure, façade, services and finishes coordination
Programming and short-term construction planning
Contract administration and subcontractor management
Commercial management, forecasting and cost control
RFIs, variations, progress claims and contractual correspondence
Coordination between design, commercial and site teamsQuality assurance and construction delivery
Stakeholder and consultant management
Defects management and project close-out
Value engineering and buildability reviews
Supporting the Project Manager across overall project delivery
Because QNY is both
developer and builder
, you'll also gain exposure to the broader development process—including feasibility, product and design strategy, procurement, sales considerations and the commercial decisions that shape a project.
We want someone who wants to understand the
entire development
, not simply their individual package or discipline.
Who We're Looking For
We're looking for someone who has learned their craft in a
hands-on construction environment
and is now ready for greater ownership.




Tier 2 or Tier 3 contractor experience is particularly valued
, where you've been accustomed to taking broader responsibility across commercial, technical and delivery functions rather than being confined to one package.
You may currently be:
Senior Project Engineer
looking for greater project ownership and direct exposure to the developer;
Project Engineer
ready to accelerate your career on a major luxury residential development; or
A high-performing
Contract Administrator
with strong commercial and technical capability who wants to transition into broader project delivery.
Your current title is less important to us than your
capability, attitude and ambition
.
You understand how buildings actually go together.
You're equally comfortable working through a technical issue on site, coordinating consultants around a table, negotiating with subcontractors and understanding the commercial implications of a decision.
You solve problems rather than simply identifying them, and you're prepared to take ownership of an issue through to resolution.
You don't need a large corporate structure around you to get things done.
Most importantly, you think beyond your job description and naturally ask:
How can we design it better, build it smarter and deliver a better outcome?
Your Experience
Ideally, you'll bring:
Approximately
4–8 years' experience
within the Australian construction industry
Experience working on major or complex construction projects, preferably
$40M+
Tier 2 or Tier 3 contractor experience preferred
High-rise residential, luxury residential, mixed-use or major commercial experience
A relevant tertiary qualification in Construction Management, Engineering, Quantity Surveying or similar
Strong understanding of construction methodology and sequencing
Experience coordinating
structure, façade, services and high-quality finishes
Experience scoping, tendering, negotiating and letting subcontract packages
Strong commercial and contract administration capability
Experience coordinating consultants, subcontractors and trade packages
Strong programming, planning and organisational skills
Sound understanding of Australian construction contracts
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Strong attention to detail
An appreciation for detailing, finishes and the quality expected in
premium residential construction
A proactive, accountable and solutions-focused approach
Full Australian working rights
Highly Regarded
Experience in any of the following will be viewed favourably:




Developer-builder environments
Luxury residential or high-end apartment developments
High-rise construction
Experience across both commercial and project delivery functions
Design management and consultant coordination
Development feasibility or planning exposure
Procore, ProcurePro, HammerTech / One Breadcrumb, PayApps and Microsoft Project
Your Career at QNY
We're particularly interested in ambitious people who don't want to remain confined to one discipline.
Potential career pathway:
Contract Administrator / Project Engineer → Senior Project Engineer → Project Manager
Progression at QNY isn't determined simply by years of service.
It's driven by
capability, performance, leadership and the responsibility you're ready to take on
.
If you demonstrate the ability, we'll give you the exposure, responsibility and opportunity to progress.
For someone who ultimately wants to lead projects, you'll gain something difficult to achieve in a traditional contractor workplace: an understanding of the decisions made on
both sides of the table
.
Why QNY?
QNY offers something different from the traditional contractor environment.
Our
development, design, commercial and construction functions operate within the same business
.
You'll work directly with senior decision-makers, collaborate with leading architects, consultants and subcontractors, and gain visibility across the complete development lifecycle.
You'll understand not only
how
a building is constructed, but
why the decisions behind the development are made
.
We're deliberately building a team of people who want responsibility and are capable of operating across traditional boundaries.
