Is your next promotion a title - or a seat at the table?

At this level, the decision is not simply whether you can lead a division, but whether the organisation can take your career where you want it to go.

Quick Question first - Could your next career move take you all the way to the Boardroom?

An exceptional prospect has emerged within one of Australia's largest, most established and highly respected engineering consultancies.

This is a position for someone who wants to make their mark, influence the future of a successful engineering division and become an important part of the organisation's leadership.

More than a technical appointment

You will be joining an established and highly capable flood engineering team, working across complex developments and major projects where technical expertise, commercial judgement and client relationships are equally important.

Your responsibilities will include:

- Leading and developing a team of experienced Flood and Hydraulic Engineers.
- Overseeing flood modelling, technical assessments and complex project delivery.
- Managing major client relationships and developing new business opportunities.




- Providing technical direction across urban flooding, stormwater and hydraulic engineering projects.
- Taking responsibility for project performance, budgets, resources and profitability.
- Mentoring engineers and developing the next generation of technical leaders.
- Working closely with senior management on business strategy and the continued growth of the flood engineering division.

What will make you successful? - Ideally, you will bring:

- 10+ years of flood engineering or water resources experience within an Australian engineering consultancy.
- Strong technical expertise in flood modelling, hydraulic analysis and flood risk management.
- Experience with TUFLOW and other recognised hydraulic modelling platforms.
- Demonstrated leadership and the ability to develop and motivate engineering teams.
- Excellent relationships with clients, authorities and industry stakeholders.
- Strong commercial awareness, including project budgets, fee proposals and business development.
- Outstanding written and verbal communication skills.
- The ambition and professional maturity to progress into Director-level leadership.

The people and culture





- One of the real strengths of this opportunity is the working environment.
- You will be joining a flourishing, highly collaborative team where technical knowledge is shared, people support one another and professional development is genuinely encouraged.
- There is a refreshing emphasis on work-life balance, flexibility and creating an environment where engineers can enjoy their work while delivering outstanding results.
- This is a consultancy that recognises the importance of retaining good people, developing future leaders and maintaining a positive, supportive culture.

Where could this opportunity take you?

- For the right individual, there is a potential pathway towards Director within two to five years, with the possibility of progressing into broader executive leadership and future Board-level consideration.
- You will have the opportunity to build your reputation within a nationally recognised consultancy, influence major projects and contribute to the strategic direction of an established engineering business.
