Principal Civil Engineer

Brisbane, Queensland, Australia at Full time

We're Recruiting - Major Master Planned Communities (SE QLD)

This is more than just a job change — it's a chance to align with a national consultancy that's secured a long-term pipeline of city-shaping projects across South East Queensland.

From 1,000-lot subdivisions to 10,000-lot master planned estates, you'll be at the centre of projects that define how our communities grow. And with the security of a national business network and strong leadership, you can focus on what matters: delivering quality work and progressing your career.

We're looking for dedicated civil professionals to join our QLD team in roles that match your skills and ambitions, based in Brisbane, Sunshine Coast, or Gold Coast:

Principal Civil Engineer: Guide teams, shape project strategies, navigate approvals, and build trusted relationships with developers and councils.

Senior Civil Engineer: Lead projects from start to finish, expand your client connections, and grow toward senior leadership roles.

Civil Project Manager: Oversee project delivery from approvals to completion, blending technical expertise with strong client partnerships.

These roles are part of a collaborative QLD civil team within a national firm, working on diverse, community-defining projects backed by a secure order book from top-tier developers. With flexible locations across SEQ, you can work where you feel most at home.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

Long-Term Stability: Contribute to a steady pipeline of major SEQ projects, giving you confidence to focus on your best work.

Clear Growth Path: Access mentorship, leadership development, and a trajectory toward principal roles, with potential share options for long-term contributors.

Purposeful Work: Collaborate with stakeholders on projects that shape how Queensland grows, creating communities that matter.

Supportive Environment: Thrive with local decision-making freedom, backed by national resources and leaders who prioritise your growth.

Lifestyle Fit: Choose your base—Brisbane, Sunshine Coast, or Gold Coast—with flexibility to balance work and life.

What You'll Contribute

RPEQ (or working toward it) with a civil engineering background.

Experience delivering master planned communities (1,000–10,000 lots) from start to finish.

Ability to build strong relationships with tier-1 developers and authorities.

Skills in managing technical, financial, and commercial project aspects.

A passion for mentoring teams and contributing to QLD's growth strategy.

Commercial acumen and client-facing confidence

A collaborative mindset with leadership potential

If you're driven by the chance to make a difference, grow your career, and work in a stable, supportive setting, this is your opportunity to help shape Queensland's future.
