Build influence. Shape a high-performing team. Enjoy the Sunshine Coast lifestyle — without compromising your career trajectory.
The Opportunity
EDGE Consulting Engineers is an Australian-owned Structural and Civil Engineering consultancy experiencing strong national growth across Queensland, ACT, and Australia-wide, with select international exposure.
We are seeking an experienced Structural Manager to lead our Sunshine Coast (Maroochydore) structural team.
This is a genuine senior leadership role — responsible for people, performance, technical excellence, and business outcomes — with the autonomy and influence to shape the future of the office.
If you're currently navigating congestion, corporate layers, or relentless utilisation pressure — and you're ready for leadership with balance — this role offers a different pace without sacrificing impact.
Why EDGE
At EDGE, leadership is built on trust, accountability, and performance — not hierarchy.
As Structural Manager, you will:
Lead and grow the Sunshine Coast structural function
Own team performance, delivery standards, and culture
Influence strategy through direct access to Directors
Drive financial performance and sustainable growth
Shape recruitment, succession, and long-term capability




You'll operate within a nationally connected business supported by strong QA systems, operational frameworks, and cross-office collaboration.
This is leadership with backing — not leadership in isolation.
Lifestyle Without Compromise
Based in Maroochydore, you'll enjoy:
Short commutes and genuine work–life balance
Beach, cafés, and schools minutes from the office
A relaxed coastal workplace without sacrificing project calibre
A community designed for long-term living
Relocation assistance is available for the right candidate.
The Role
Reporting to the Directors, you will lead the day-to-day operation and strategic direction of the Sunshine Coast structural team.
Your focus will span:
Leadership & Culture
Develop and mentor Engineers, Senior Engineers, and Graduates
Drive accountability, engagement, and high performance
Lead performance and remuneration reviews
Support recruitment and succession planning
Technical Oversight
Maintain oversight of complex structural building projects
Ensure QA standards and technical excellence are upheld
Provide senior review and guidance on high-risk or high-value work
Commercial & Operational Performance
Manage financial targets and team profitability
Forecast workload, resourcing, and staffing requirements




Contribute to fee proposals and commercial strategy
Report performance metrics to Directors
Client & Growth
Maintain and strengthen key client relationships
Represent EDGE in industry forums and stakeholder meetings
Support long-term business development and continuity
You will remain technically credible — while leading strategically.
About You
You are a leader first, structural engineer always.
You bring:
Degree qualification in Structural Engineering
5+ years' experience within consulting
Proven leadership as a Structural Manager, Team Lead, or Senior Engineer
Demonstrated experience managing structural engineering teams
Strong knowledge of Australian building structures
Commercial awareness and financial acumen
Confident client‐facing capability
Chartered (or near Chartered) status with Engineers Australia
Most importantly, you are motivated to build something enduring — not simply manage the status quo.
The Offer
Senior leadership position
Genuine autonomy and influence
Australia-wide search
Relocation assistance available
Salary package: $170K – $220K (DOE)
Ready to Lead Differently?
This is a rare opportunity to step into true structural leadership, shape a growing regional team, influence national direction — and live where others holiday.
Applications close: 29 Sept ****
Applicants must have full Australian working rights.
EDGE is committed to fostering a diverse, inclusive, and equitable workplace.
