Job Description

Geotechnical / Civil Engineer (RPEV) — Casual Report Review n

A geotechnical consultancy servicing residential construction across Victoria is looking for a Registered Professional Engineer (Victoria) to review and sign off our reports on a casual basis.

n

The work

n

We carry out the field work, logging and draft reporting in-house. Your role is to review the data, form the engineering opinion, and sign the report.

n

We're after genuine technical oversight — not a signature at the end. You'd have full access to borehole logs and field records, and we'd expect you to send work back where anything is unclear or insufficient.

n

Reports are residential site classifications to AS2870, plus footing and bored pier inspection reports.

n

Hours and rate

n

Fully remote, work at times that suit you — no site attendance

n

Flexible hours, typically 3–10 hours per week

n

$150–200 per hour depending on experience, inclusive of casual loading, plus superannuation

n





You'd be covered

n

You'd be engaged as a casual employee, which means your work is covered under the practice's Qualified Indemnity insurance. You don't need to hold your own policy.

n

Registered Professional Engineer of Victoria (RPEV) — civil — with Building Industry Endorsement

n

Demonstrated experience in residential site classification to AS2870

n

Sound understanding of reactive soils, fill, and footing and foundation assessment

n

Comfortable taking skilled responsibility for reports prepared by others under your review

n

Also worth applying if

n

You hold RPEQ or interstate registration and are open to obtaining RPEV via mutual recognition

n

You're semi-retired, reducing your hours, or want supplementary work alongside an existing role
