Melbourne, Australia Aurecon Group Full time

Want to bring ideas to life?

You’re in the right place. We’ve been a leading design, engineering and advisory company for decades. So why choose Aurecon? It really comes down to one, crucial question: what kind of world do you want to create for the next generation? Truth is, the decisions being made right now will determine the future of everything - from the local community to the sustainability of our clients’ businesses - to the entire planet. One of those decisions is: who do you decide to work for?

How will your ideas contribute to shaping what’s next?

As a Strategic Planner within our Environment and Planning team, you’ll work with a team of highly skilled specialists. You’ll be a trusted partner to a diverse range of local and interstate clients and develop a deep understanding of their challenges to co-create innovative solutions that help shape the future of our cities. You’ll drive value, connect assets to strategy and proactively respond to disruptive change.

Here are the key things you’ll do:

- Provide specialist technical input to our government clients for strategic land use projects and key placemaking activities
- Provide advice to both internal and external clients in relation to the delivery of strategic land use planning projects, driving integrated solutions and sustainable planning outcomes
- Contribute to the leadership of multi-disciplinary project teams to deliver projects, prepare reports and presentations that bring together technical assessments, manage sub-consultants, and assist the preparation of fee proposals and tender submissions.
- Be part of a team by sharing your knowledge and collaborative work experiences

How will your future be shaped by us?

Joining Aurecon means you’ll be at the award-winning edge of innovation and sustainability. AFR ranked us Top 5 among sustainability leaders and Top 3 of all innovative companies in professional services. One Consult awarded us an innovative design award. Plus, we were Consult Australia’s large firm of the year.

You really can bring your whole self to work and be confident your voice will be heard. We don’t just claim we’re inclusive and innovative, as proven by the independent awards and accreditations we’ve gained. We’ve been recognised for our innovation culture, gender equality and our LGBTI+ inclusion. Plus, we have a robust Reconciliation Action Plan - our fourth edition since 2014.

On a personal level you’ll have access to flexible work hours, remote work, working holidays, part-time and job share options. When it comes to your development, you’ll be a part of our Advisory Development Academy, and have the option to build your technical mastery in the Aurecon Design Academy which earns you a Graduate Certificate in Design Management from the prestigious RMIT University. Plus, you’ll be supported on every step of your career journey with mentoring, leadership training and our Career Hub. Outside of work, you’ll be further supported with competitive paid parental leave, cultural public holiday swaps, plus wellbeing support programmes.

What are we looking for from you?

You’ll have a genuine passion for re-imagining problems and continuous learning to help shape the future.

We value that each of our team members brings something different to Aurecon. We look for people who have had a broad range of experiences throughout their career and can demonstrate how they have worked as part of a team to bring ideas to life.

Alongside your industry experience in policy development, strategy implementation and project management, you’ll also have:

- A relevant urban planning degree or equivalent qualification
- Strong project management skills with the ability to work independently
- High level of interest in working to support major infrastructure projects, including co-location with clients in project offices (where practicable)
- Understanding of the decision drivers of Commonwealth, State and local government to inform the preparation of planning strategies, site masterplans, and structure plans
- The ability to think of the big picture and the future urban context whilst considering multiple possibilities
- Excellent interpersonal and negotiation skills for facilitating relationships with internal and external clients and decision-makers
- Excellent oral and written communication skills for preparing and presenting planning reports and projects.

Think you know Aurecon? You may be surprised.

Aurecon’s strength has always been our people. It’s our people who build our shared purpose and bring ideas to life. It’s our people who imagine and co-create with our clients a better future for people and the planet. Of course, you’ll probably know lots of our award-winning projects. The new Allianz Stadium in Sydney? That was us. Tāmaki Regeneration in Auckland? That was us too. And the Tseung Kwan O Interchange in Hong Kong? You guessed it, us. So, when y
