The role will be performed in a flexible working arrangement with a combination of working from home and our offices in Footscray & the CBD. (2 days from home, 2 days from Footscray, 1 day from CBD).
About you
You are a self-motivated, high performer with direct experience in the cost control field on major infrastructure projects, with exposure to a major transport infrastructure project being highly desirable.
Prior experience in project controls, cost forecasting, cost estimating, quantity surveying, or project accounting and a relevant tertiary qualification in Engineering or Quantity Surveying is also highly desirable.
As the ideal applicant, you will demonstrate excellent attention to detail and strong analytical skills, together with solid interpersonal and communication skills.
About us
At LXRP, we're not just removing level crossings, we are removing barriers and creating legacies for our communities for years to come. Inclusion is a priority for us, and we are committed to creating an employee community that reflects those in which we work.
- We use our role as leaders in the transport sector to provide secure pathways into the industry for women, people who identify as LGBTQIA+, people living with a disability, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders, refugees or asylum seekers and people facing barriers to employment.
- We offer and encourage flexible work practices and purchased leave arrangements for all of our employees to support wellbeing, family or carer commitments or other personal circumstances.
- We place great importance on growth, empowering our people to enhance their knowledge, capability and experience through continual learning, formal training and lessons learned.
