Overview

GHD Graduate Program 2026 – Civil Graduate – Wollongong. The two-year Graduate Development Program is designed to give you a smooth start to your consulting career. You'll work with peers, managers and mentors to tackle challenges in the transport sector, with the Rail team delivering innovative solutions to keep trains moving and infrastructure resilient.
