About the Company:

Representing an established multidisciplinary engineering consultancy, I am looking to introduce a Civil Engineer to a team with a strong presence across the consulting engineering and built environment sectors.

The business has built its reputation around technical capability, quality project delivery and strong working relationships. It is a practice where engineers are encouraged to contribute, take ownership of their work and collaborate directly with experienced colleagues rather than simply becoming another number in a large organisation.

The culture is down to earth, with a genuine emphasis on supporting the people around you, enjoying the work and creating an environment where good engineers can do their best work.

The Opportunity:

An opportunity is available for a Civil Engineer with a background in land development to join the Sydney team.

The preference is for a Chartered Professional Engineer (CPEng) who is comfortable taking technical ownership of civil design and contributing to the delivery of development projects across NSW.

You will work across the civil engineering design process, with exposure to stormwater management, drainage, earthworks and associated infrastructure. The role offers the opportunity to contribute technically, work alongside experienced engineers and have a genuine influence on project outcomes.

While CPEng accreditation is strongly preferred, the business is also open to considering experienced intermediate engineers with relevant land development experience who are progressing towards chartership and greater technical responsibility.

Experience with TUFLOW modelling would be particularly advantageous.

What You Will Be Doing:

- Undertaking civil engineering design across a range of land development projects.




- Developing civil design solutions for stormwater drainage, earthworks, roads and associated infrastructure.
- Undertaking hydraulic and hydrological modelling, including stormwater management and flood assessments.
- Preparing engineering calculations, technical reports, design documentation and supporting approval submissions.
- Coordinating with internal engineering disciplines, external consultants, clients and relevant authorities.
- Applying relevant Australian Standards, council requirements and engineering guidelines throughout the design process.
- Contributing to design reviews, technical discussions and the overall delivery of projects.

What We Are Looking For:

- A degree in Civil Engineering.
- CPEng accreditation strongly preferred, with consideration given to experienced engineers progressing towards chartership.
- A minimum of 5+ years’ experience within civil engineering consultancy, ideally with 3+ years in the land development sector.
- Sound understanding of civil design principles, stormwater management and drainage design.
- Experience using 12d and/or Civil 3D expected.
- Working knowledge of DRAINS and MUSIC is desirable.
- TUFLOW modelling experience would be highly regarded.
- The ability to work collaboratively, communicate technical information and take ownership of your work.

What's On Offer:

- $135,000 – $165,000 + Super,



depending on experience and capability.
- The business offers a working setting with plenty to like:
- Flexible working: Hybrid arrangements and flexible start and finish times.
- A supportive team: Work alongside experienced engineers in an approachable, cooperative environment.
- A relaxed culture: A professional workplace without unnecessary corporate formalities.
- Team connection: Regular social activities and company events throughout the year.
- Career development: Opportunities to broaden your technical experience and contribute to increasingly complex projects.

Importantly, flexibility is not just something written into a policy. The business is happy to have a genuine conversation about what works for you.

About Me:

I'm David Hamilton, a Registered Architect who has transitioned into specialist recruitment across the architecture, engineering and construction industries.

Having worked within the built environment myself, I understand the technical nature of these roles and appreciate that choosing the right next move is about considerably more than a job title or salary.

My approach is straightforward. I take the time to understand both the opportunity and the individual, ensuring there is a genuine alignment between the two.
