Work that matters, done with people who care.

Help shape safer, more efficient and better-connected roads and transport outcomes for our community.

As Principal Roads and Transport Engineer, you lead the planning and development of complex road and transport projects. You review intersection layouts, active transport facilities and road network upgrades, check designs against relevant standards and resolve technical and safety issues. You undertake site inspections and road safety audits and work with Transport for NSW, consultants, contractors and internal teams to move projects from planning through to delivery.

You prepare technical reports, cost estimates, risk assessments and funding submissions. You manage project scope, budgets and timeframes, review consultant work and provide technical guidance to junior and mid-level engineers.

Your work helps make the road network safer, more accessible and more efficient for residents, businesses and road users. You bring extensive road and transport engineering experience, sound technical judgement and strong knowledge of Austroads, Transport for NSW requirements, NSW Road Design Guides and Australian Standards.
