  • Effective presentation, high level technical writing and oral communication skills;
  • The ability to work in a team setting against tight timelines and deliver high quality outputs for our clients.
  • Self-starter qualities with ability to think and work independently.
  • Existing client contacts that would help to grow SLR's market share in the Transport Advisory sector.

Benefits
Our culture is unique where we work together to collaborate on projects to get the best possible outcome for our clients. Whether you're working in the office, from home or a mix of the two, we recognise that every person is different, and our benefits aim to ensure that we cater for all, including:

  • Hybrid work model (in-office & from home).
  • Extra paid purchased leave up to 10 days so you can re-energize, help others, support family, or focus on your own professional development.
  • Inclusive parental leave policy that supports all parents throughout their parenting journey which includes 14 weeks primary carer and 6 weeks secondary carer leave.
  • Learning and development which includes a mapped career progression path, study assistance and up to 3 professional memberships subsidised by SLR.
  • Global and regional mobility and recruitment referral bonus for both region and global candidates.
  • Access to The Hive – an SLR platform of employee benefits, discounts, discounts (from 100's of major retailers) reward, recognition and wellbeing
  • Other benefits include regular office social events, service anniversary awards, salary sacrificing (novated car lease) an online corporate uniform shop with individualised annual budget, and an Employee Assistance Program to support your physical, mental and social well-being.
