In Melbourne, water is essential to our way of life.

As caretakers for Melbourne's water cycle, we care for water, life and land throughout Melbourne: both its people and its biodiversity.

Each time you drink from the tap, flush a toilet, run through a backyard sprinkler, or kayak down the Yarra, we're there. Primed and ready, quietly delivering some of the world's cleanest water for over five million residents and wildlife that call Melbourne home, just as we have for over 130 years.

If you value making it count, diving in with curiosity, and doing what's right, you're in the right place.

This full time, permanent role will report to the DSS Development Engineering & Planning Services Area Manager. This role is responsible for recommending and determining the Statutory Services related to civil engineering and urban planning approvals (predominantly Development and Subdivisions relating to civil engineering and environmental engineering matters) within the DSS Scheme Areas.

This will be achieved through:

  1. Functional Design assessment and management responsibility for Growth Area development and subdivision applications including assessing and determining Permits Referrals, Engineering Design Reviews for wetlands, retarding basins, waterways and pipelines, complex Stormwater Management Strategy review, Development Planning and Subdivision applications, Certifications and Statements of Compliance
  2. Risk management and continuous professional development
  3. Active strategy and scheme assessment and management

About You

  • Relevant Tertiary qualification required in Civil/Environmental Engineering.
  • Knowledge of hydraulic/hydrological and stormwater quality modelling
  • Previous extensive experience in decision making in complex Civil Engineering and Urban planning related area of work
  • Knowledge of Victorian Statutory Planning processes
