  • Preparing technical reports and client deliverables
  • Leading proposal preparation and project costing
  • Liaising with clients, subcontractors and regulators

What You'll Need

  • Degree in Environmental Science, Geology, Engineering or related discipline
  • 7-10 years' consulting experience in contaminated land
  • Industry certification (CEnvP or CPSS) or keen interest to pursue this
  • Solid understanding of QLD and national environmental frameworks (NEPM, EP Act, etc.)
  • Strong communication and technical writing skills
  • Confidence in the field, with an eye for detail and technical excellence
  • A team-first attitude and a proactive mindset
  • Willingness to learn from others at all career levels
  • Desire to ask questions and think critically about technical matters
  • Interest in developing your career
