Salary $*******k depending on experience
You know façade engineering. The next question is whether you're ready to lead it.
We are looking for an accomplished Façade Engineer who wants to take the next step beyond simply delivering their own projects and become an important part of the leadership and future growth of an established Sydney engineering consultancy.
This is an opportunity for someone who combines strong technical façade knowledge with the ability to lead projects, develop people, build client relationships and help shape a growing façade engineering division.
Based in Sydney's Inner West, you'll work closely with the Director while taking increasing responsibility for the technical and commercial delivery of façade projects.
The work is diverse and technically challenging, covering major residential, mixed-use, commercial and architecturally complex developments throughout Sydney.
You'll be exposed to the complete façade lifecycle – from early concept and façade strategy through detailed engineering, procurement and construction.
Your technical involvement could include:
Curtain wall and window wall systems
Aluminum-framed glazing, windows and doors
Lightweight and metal cladding systems
Brickwork and Hebel/AAC systems
Structural design of façade components and connections
Wind analysis and project-specific wind assessments
Weatherproofing and NCC compliance
Movement, durability and constructability assessments
Shop drawing and technical submission reviews
Site inspections, defect identification and construction support
But this position is about considerably more than technical engineering. We're looking for someone who can become a trusted senior figure within the façade team.
You'll have the chance to:




Lead façade projects from initial design through construction
Provide technical direction to engineers
Review and sign off technical work appropriate to your experience and registration
Manage programmes, resources and project deliverables
Build strong relationships with architects, developers and builders
Work directly with façade contractors and specialist suppliers
Lead design and construction meetings
Resolve complex technical and construction problems
Prepare proposals and scopes and understand project commercials
Help improve technical standards and engineering processes
Contribute to the continued development and growth of the façade division
We are particularly interested in somebody who understands how façades are actually built.
The right person won't approach every problem purely from a theoretical perspective. You'll understand installation, tolerances, interfaces, movement, sequencing, weatherproofing and the practical realities contractors face on site.
You should be able to look at an architectural concept and help develop it into a façade solution that is technically sound, buildable and commercially sensible.
Your background may have been developed within a façade engineering consultancy, multidisciplinary engineering consultancy or a technically strong façade, glazing or curtain-wall contractor.




Strong knowledge of the NCC and relevant Australian Standards will be important, together with substantial experience within the Australian building industry.
CPEng, NER and/or NSW Professional Engineer / Design Practitioner registration would be highly regarded at leadership level.
What makes this opportunity particularly interesting is the access you'll have to the people running the business.
There aren't layers of management between you and the decision-makers.
You'll work directly with senior leadership, have genuine input into how projects are delivered and have the opportunity to help develop the façade business as it continues to grow.
The consultancy invests strongly in technical development, including structured fortnightly training, while providing senior engineers with the autonomy to take genuine ownership of their projects and clients.
For somebody coming from a large consultancy, this could mean considerably more influence and ownership.
For somebody already leading projects in a smaller façade consultancy or contractor, it could provide the broader technical exposure and leadership opportunity you've been looking for.
And for an established Senior Façade Engineer who feels they've reached the ceiling in their present business, this is an opportunity to start building the next stage of your career around leadership rather than simply accumulating more projects.
They're looking for somebody who wants to stay, build relationships, develop a team and ultimately become an important part of the future of the façade business.
