This is a full-time position, working with a great team of Acoustic Consultants, you will be experienced in the environmental acoustics field, BESS, and/or Wind farm noise project experience desirable.

Our Team:

We have a growing team in the Adelaide office, of a variety of other technical disciplines. You will be part of a wider APAC team of 60+ Acoustic consultants with a vast range of experience in different sectors and experience levels. If you are looking for flexibility, autonomy, and opportunities to push yourself, then we are keen to speak to you.

Key Responsibilities:

Job Tasks and Responsibilities:

  • You will carry out technical tasks which will require accuracy in calculations, data analysis, modeling, and design which will include manipulating and managing large data sets.
  • With the opportunity to work on a wide range of projects, work in the following areas is expected; environmental noise monitoring, building acoustics, 3D computer noise modeling, numerical analysis of results, and associated reporting.
  • You will be comfortable mentoring/guiding junior level staff.
  • As well as delivering projects, your role would include the opportunity to develop your business development skills to bring your own influence to the breadth and range of projects the team work on – with support from senior team members as needed.

Skills and Experience:

Our ideal candidate will have a willingness to challenge their capabilities and be an innovative thinker as well as possess:

  • A relevant bachelor's degree (ideally mechanical or electrical engineering, environmental engineering, or science) or postgraduate degree in acoustics.
  • Ideally, you will bring 10+ years' experience within a consulting environment (we will also consider more or less experienced consultants. At Geoscience Ireland, we craft the role around the person, not the other way around).
  • Demonstrated experience in building acoustics and environmental noise assessment.
  • Experience and high competency with noise monitoring equipment and 3D computer noise models (e.g. SoundPLAN) would be considered desirable.
  • The ability to be self-sufficient and build on your business development skill set as we all look to contribute to this area.
  • A proven record of high-level Project Delivery will be favorable to your application.

Our Benefits:

Our culture is unique where we work together to collaborate on projects to get the best possible outcome for our clients. Whether you're working in the office, from home, or a mix of the two, we recognize that every person is different, and our benefits aim to ensure that we cater for all, including:

  • Hybrid work model (in-office & from home) - you choose where you work best.
  • Extra paid purchased leave up to 10 days so you can re-energize, help others, support family, or focus on your own professional development.
  • Inclusive parental leave policy that supports all parents throughout their parenting journey which includes 14 weeks primary carer and 6 weeks secondary carer leave.
  • Learning and development which includes a mapped career progression path, study assistance, and up to 3 professional memberships subsidized by Geoscience Ireland.
  • Global and regional mobility and recruitment referral bonus for both region and global candidates.
  • Access to The Hive – an SLR platform of employee benefits, discounts, rewards, recognition, and wellbeing.
  • Other benefits include regular office social events, service anniversary awards, salary sacrificing (novated car lease and superannuation), an online corporate uniform shop where you get $100 annually to spend, and an Employee Assistance Program to support your physical, mental, and social well-being.

We know it can sometimes be difficult and frustrating applying for roles; wondering if the role is right for you and if your experience is right for Geoscience Ireland. Many people won't apply for roles unless they feel they tick every box on the checklist. At Geoscience Ireland, we look for many different skills and technical competencies and we're always looking for how new team members can add value to the business and to our culture. If you think this role isn't quite for you, but you have a desire to work with us, we'd still love to hear from you.

We make hiring decisions based on your experience, skills, and passion. Please note that interviews are conducted with gender-diverse interview panels to the best of our ability. When you apply, please tell us the pronouns you use and any reasonable adjustments you may need during the interview process.

Unsolicited resumes from recruitment consultants will not be accepted. You must be part of the preferred supplier agreement list which is coordinated through our Talent Acquisition team.
