About us

Aurecon is an advisory and engineering company, but not as you know it

For a start, our clients' ideas drive what we do. Drawing on our deep pool of expertise, we co-create innovative solutions with our clients to some of the world's most complex challenges. And through a range of unique creative processes and skills, we work to re-imagine, shape and design a better future.

What's in It for You?

  • Be part of a high-performing leadership team in Melbourne, guiding a growing business and team.
  • Lead Stakeholder Engagement and Communication strategies for major infrastructure projects that shape client and community outcomes.
  • Play a key role in shaping our future direction as we expand our business and develop our people.

What You Bring:

  • Strong capability in leading teams and clients within the Victorian consulting environment.
  • Proven ability to design and execute Stakeholder Engagement and Communication programs for major infrastructure projects.
  • A track record of building a pipeline of opportunities fostering trusted relationships with clients.

What You'll Do:

  • Implement industry-leading engagement and communication practices, providing strategic solutions to client challenges.
  • Expand our presence in the infrastructure sector by building and managing a strong pipeline of work.
  • Lead people and teams to deliver great work and develop and grow.

How will your ideas contribute to shaping what's next?

Engagement & Change Advisory (ECA) comprises three core capabilities: Communications & Stakeholder Engagement, Transformation and Change, and Social Value. As the result of continued growth, we have an opportunity for an Associate Director with experience and expertise in leading Communications & Stakeholder Engagement projects. Additionally, experience extending into Transformational Change or Social Value will be highly regarded.

Our Melbourne-based Engagement and Change Advisory team works on major infrastructure projects throughout Victoria and South Australia, as well as closely collaborating with our extended teams across Australia and New Zealand.

This role will play an important role to deliver, grow and lead.

The role and your experience

Deliver: As a Leader, you will work with clients to deliver projects end-to-end. Your Communications and Stakeholder Engagement expertise will assess, plan and implement programs that solve our clients' most complex problems. You have experience engaging at all levels of a project and are accustomed to engaging senior leaders/executives to achieve project outcomes. You will have access to some of the industry's brightest minds committed to your personal success and development.

Grow: Growth is at the heart of our business, and bringing in new and interesting work enables our people to learn and develop. As a leader in our Melbourne team, you will support a pipeline of future opportunities, actively contribute to business development, and shape successful proposals that differentiate us in the market. Although not mandatory, previous experience in consulting will greatly support your success in this role.

Lead: This role requires an adaptable and dynamic leader. Beyond supporting and developing direct reports, your leadership extends to project teams/streams and client relationships.

How will your future be shaped by us?

Joining Aurecon means you'll be at the award-winning edge of innovation and sustainability. We've been recognized for our innovation culture, gender equality, and our LGBTI+ inclusion. Plus, we have a robust Reconciliation Action Plan – our fourth edition since 2014.

On a personal level, you'll have access to flexible work hours, remote work, working holidays, part-time and job share options. You'll be a part of our Advisory Development Academy, and have the option to build your technical mastery in the Aurecon Design Academy, which earns you a Graduate Certificate in Design Management from the prestigious RMIT University. Plus, you'll be supported on every step of your career journey with mentoring, leadership training, and our Career Hub.
