Your responsibilities will include:
- Leading civil engineering design and delivery across urban and land development projects.
- Managing and mentoring a team of four to five engineers and designers.
- Overseeing road design, stormwater drainage, earthworks and subdivision infrastructure.
- Coordinating project delivery, design quality, deadlines and client expectations.
- Building and maintaining relationships with developers, clients, consultants and relevant authorities.
- Working closely with senior management on project planning, resource allocation and team development.
- Helping create a positive, productive and collaborative working environment.
This isn't a position where you'll simply sit behind a computer producing designs.
- You'll have the opportunity to influence projects, develop people and establish yourself as an important part of the consultancy's future.
- From Senior Civil Engineer to Associate – and beyond
- One of the most attractive aspects of this opportunity is the clearly identified career pathway.
- The consultancy is looking for someone who has the technical ability, communication skills and leadership potential to progress into an Associate position within approximately 18 months.
- Beyond that, there is a genuine ambition to develop the right person towards future Director-level leadership.
- You'll be supported through structured internal and external training, professional development and ongoing mentoring from experienced senior leaders.
- The intention is to give you the experience, responsibility and support required to progress, rather than simply promising a promotion at some undefined point in the future.
- Progression will naturally depend on performance, capability and mutual fit.
What will make you successful?
- Strong Australian consultancy experience in civil engineering, particularly urban and land development.
- Experience across subdivisions, roads, stormwater drainage, earthworks and associated civil infrastructure.
- Sound technical design knowledge, ideally including 12D, with DRAINS and MUSIC experience advantageous.
- The confidence to lead,
mentor and support a small team of engineers and designers.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
- The ability to communicate professionally with clients, developers, consultants and external stakeholders.
- A positive, approachable personality and the ability to contribute to a supportive team culture.
- A genuine ambition to develop commercially and professionally towards Associate and eventually Director level.
You don't need to be an Associate already.
- What matters is that you've developed the technical foundations, leadership qualities and interpersonal skills to become one.
- A culture where you'll want to build your future
- The consultancy understands that successful engineering teams are built around positive people, not just good technical skills.
- You'll be surrounded by motivated professionals who are approachable, collaborative and willing to share their knowledge.
- With extensive internal and external training opportunities, you'll be encouraged to develop both your technical expertise and the broader leadership and commercial skills needed to advance your career.
- This is an environment where your contribution will be recognised and your ambitions taken seriously.
Your next move should be more than another Senior Engineer position.
- If you're already performing well but feel your career progression has slowed, this could be the opportunity that changes your future.
- Imagine joining a consultancy where you're trusted to lead a team from the outset, supported to develop into Associate within approximately 18 months and given a genuine opportunity to work towards Director-level leadership.
- You're not just being recruited for what you can do today.
- You're being considered for what you could become tomorrow.
