Senior & Principal Asset Management Advisors | Newcastle, Brisbane & Regional Queensland

At Opal, we’re building a different kind of advisory business.

One where you’re valued for your ideas, not your utilisation rate. Where experience is shared rather than guarded, and collaboration is how we work, not a value on a website.

We help councils, utilities and asset-intensive organisations make confident decisions by connecting outcomes, risk, service performance, investment planning, digital capability and governance. We’re not a traditional engineering consultancy. We believe asset management is about far more than assets, and that it should be outcome-focused, evidence-based and genuinely useful to decision-makers.

Is this you?

You’ve spent years leading programs, managing teams, navigating politics and helping organisations make better investment decisions. You might be a former Asset Manager, Principal Advisor, Senior Engineer, Infrastructure Planning Manager, Strategic Planner or Consultant, with expertise in areas such as:

- Strategic asset management and ISO 55000 frameworks
- Asset planning, capital planning and business cases




- Service planning and levels of service
- Asset information, performance and risk
- Water, wastewater, transport or local government infrastructure

Above all, you enjoy solving complex problems, building trusted relationships and seeing your advice make a difference.

Work your way

Part-time, flexible schedule, remote or hybrid, project-based, or a senior or principal advisory role. Whether you’re stepping back from full-time leadership, returning to consulting, balancing family commitments, or simply looking for a team that shares your values, we’d like to hear from you.

No corporate layers. No competing for a voice at the table. Just smart, supportive people solving meaningful problems together.

Let’s talk

We have current opportunities in Newcastle, Brisbane and across regional Queensland, and we’re also keen to hear from experienced people elsewhere who are open to remote or hybrid work. If you’re curious about a different way of working, we’d love to have a confidential conversation.

Flexible. Purposeful. Outcome-focused.
