Your new company

Work for a well-established management consulting / advisory firm that provides expertise to government and private clients within the infrastructure, Property and resources sectors. This organisation provides expertise across the entire project life cycle and helps to deliver superior outcomes for their top tier clients, due to their deep industry experience, expertise, and networks. As such, they take pride in developing and mentoring their people, enabling you to develop expert consultancy skills and gain experience working with tier 1 clients. Excellent company culture and a modern, agile consultancy environment will give you the tools to thrive.

Your new role

As a client-side Project Engineer/Project Manager, you will be heavily involved in a significant urban development and roads/rail infrastructure project from inception to completion, using your experience to deliver high level advice, stakeholder management, and problem-solving expertise to all project stakeholders. Under the guidance of a Senior Project Manager and delivery lead, you will take a hands-on approach, overlooking and coordinating engineering design, planning and approvals, construction, commercial, and reporting. This role would require some site-based activity and give you the opportunity to travel to regional sites to perform these duties.

Your responsibilities in this role will include, but are not limited to:

  • Scoping and managing major infrastructure projects from inception to handover phase, with a particular focus on water infrastructure projects;
  • Programming and scheduling;
  • Managing the preparation of tender documentation and post-tender responsibilities;
  • Coordinating design from concept to delivery;
  • Consulting with clients, with approval management and project delivery responsibility;
  • Managing stakeholders; interfacing with all relevant consultancies and contractors; and
  • Holding responsibility for regular project reporting: cost control, budget status, variations and forecasting.

What you need to succeed

  • Bachelor of Engineering, with post-graduate engineering qualifications looked upon favourably. Civil qualifications a plus.
  • Experience working on significant projects; project values of $50 million ideally
  • Good people skills, a passion for working in a team and delivering strong results
  • Exemplary communication skills, both written and verbal
  • Can-do attitude, ability to hit the ground running, work autonomously and have a knack for problem-solving
  • Experience in Project Management and/or formal qualifications in this area would be a benefit
  • Proven ability to multitask and remain quality-focused in a fast-paced environment

What you will enjoy

This unique opportunity will allow you to experience more than a career - you'll be both challenged and rewarded, as you work on industry-defining projects, find solutions for complex problems, and work towards growth opportunities.

Reap the benefits of:

  • A competitive salary package;
  • Challenge and reward as you work on complex and significant projects for top-tier clients, delivering solutions across the entire project life cycle;
  • The ability to flourish in a career-defining role, working collaboratively in a team of smart, professional people and embracing the opportunity to grow professionally;
  • The opportunity to work with tier one clients, being a part of complex, state-significant projects; and
  • A great company culture, nurturing team, and dynamic consultancy environment.
