You'll get to jump in and guide strategy, have a significant commercial exposure and work on transport bids.

What You'll Do

  • Oversee engineers, design managers and project managers working directly with contractors on live projects.
  • Provide technical input, quality oversight and mentoring to junior staff.
  • Act as a key liaison between the consultancy, contractors and clients, ensuring seamless communication and project alignment.
  • Step up into the leadership role when required, offering career progression into a future Team Lead position.

What We're Looking For
  • Degree-qualified civil engineer with at least 7 years of experience and keen to continue their growth.
  • Strong background in civil infrastructure, ideally across road, transport, utilities or urban development projects.
  • Must have is TfNSW exposure.
  • Exposure to contractor-side delivery, constructability reviews or secondment work is highly regarded.
  • Natural leadership ability with experience mentoring juniors and supporting project teams.
  • Excellent communication skills and the confidence to engage directly with contractors and clients.

Why Join?
  • Work on high-profile civil and transport projects in Sydney and across NSW.
  • A culture that values ownership, collaboration and practical solutions.
  • Long-term growth with a consultancy committed to developing its people.
  • Genuine step into leadership, with succession planning towards a future Civil Lead role.

If you're a civil engineer ready to take on more responsibility while staying hands-on with major projects, this role offers the best of both worlds.
