Why Smart People Join Epic?

If you're tired of being a cog in a machine and want to actually enjoy your work, we might just be your people. Here's why the sharpest minds choose Epic:

  • No Groundhog-Day Projects – You won't be stuck doing the same cookie-cutter reports. We balance your time between field and desk, so you can stretch your legs (and your brain).

  • Zero Ego Culture – Titles don't matter here. From grad to director, everyone's accessible and eager to share knowledge. We take our work seriously, not ourselves.

  • Real Career Growth – We invest in coaching, education and practical experience so you can see a clear path forward. You're a human being, not a payroll number.

Join Our Melbourne Land & Water Team as an Associate or Principal Environmental Scientist/Engineer

Our fast-growing Melbourne office needs a seasoned professional (10+ years' environmental consulting experience) to lead high-impact projects and mentor our rising stars.

What You'll Do

  • Lead urban renewal and remediation projects that actually make communities better.

  • Keep large infrastructure projects moving in fast-paced, high-stakes environments.

  • Provide due diligence and transactional advice for industrial and commercial property deals.

  • Offer technical advisory and regulatory strategy support—yes, you'll have opinions, and we expect you to voice them.

  • Collaborate with contaminated land auditors (audit support optional).

What You Bring

  • Tertiary qualifications in environmental science or a related field.

  • At least 10 years in environmental consulting (Australian experience preferred).

  • A knack for building relationships, managing projects, and landing new work.

  • Proposal-writing skills that win projects of all sizes.

  • A passion for mentoring and developing junior staff.

Perks

  • Flexible work-from-home options—life happens, and we respect that.

  • Competitive salary plus perks (because good people should be rewarded).

  • Projects that are actually interesting.

  • Plenty of social events (we're not all work and no play).

  • Direct access to experienced, knowledgeable directors.

  • A collaborative, knowledge-sharing team where "everyone helps everyone."

  • Trust and autonomy—if you're looking for micromanagement, look elsewhere.
