We support water customers across Australia to provide our communities with the best drinking water and wastewater treatment services, whilst innovating ways to safeguard and secure our country's water supplies, elevating public spaces and enhancing livability.

Our team is expanding and due to some significant wins, we are seeking a Senior Civil Engineer with municipal water pipelines, sewer design, trunk main and water reticulation system experience.

You'll be a key member of KBR's Water team who, in a joint venture with John Holland has been delivering Melbourne Water's complex infrastructure projects through major design and construction framework, that will see us supporting Melbourne Water for well over a decade of continuous service.

In addition, the team are delivering major capital projects to South East Water's record $1.5 billion investment as part of a new industry partnership between Abergeldie, BMD & KBR (ABK). The 10-year contract will see ABK plan and deliver major infrastructure upgrades in partnership with South East Water as part of a new integrated capital works planning and delivery model.

This is an opportunity to grow your career through working with diverse teams on projects across the full asset lifecycle. From strategic planning for our future cities to working with our construction partners to gain the invaluable experience of 'constructing your design'. Your opportunities are limitless in this team at KBR.

Who are you?

You are a design focused Senior Civil Engineer experienced in detailed design, running projects, customer interaction and mentoring juniors.

You will be motivated by achievement, outcome-focused and present professionally to peers, clients, and stakeholders. You will have previous experience designing major projects across water pipelines from 250mm-1000mm diameter, understand or have experience in sewer design, trunk mains and pump stations through various stages of the design lifecycle.

You possess a pragmatic approach to the development of constructable design solutions and have proven commercial acumen in the delivery of water infrastructure.

You will have the following skills and experience:

  • You are a Chartered Engineer (CEng) having delivered various complex detailed design projects
  • You have demonstrated experience in the water infrastructure sector in a consulting environment.
  • Proven ability to work in, and lead, engineering, planning and design modelling teams, work directly with water authority clients, and manage projects to scope, budget and program.

Who are we?

Our water team offers services across the full water cycle, delivering major pipelines, large pumping stations and advanced water, wastewater, and recycling treatment plants.

We address critical water cycle challenges and provide solutions through adopting flexible program delivery models and ongoing asset management programs. We are the market leader in program management consulting, supporting key water utilities to achieve phased savings in capital expenditure, while delivering the best environmental and community outcomes that keep the cost of water bills low for millions of Australian people and businesses.

At KBR, we value you – here's how.

While our people are busy delivering leading science, technology, and engineering solutions, we are committed to providing them with a supportive, trusting environment and benefits that enable them to thrive and continue doing what they do best.

We can offer you flexible and family friendly working arrangements including flexibility with hours as well as your work location. You will receive ongoing professional development and the opportunity to work with technically eminent professionals. Employees of KBR may benefit from up to 8 additional hours of accrued flexible leave every 4 weeks.
