Senior Mechanical Engineer

Our national water business is seeking a skilled Senior Mechanical Engineer to join our team. Located in either Sydney or Newcastle, you will have the opportunity to work on complex engineering solutions in the water sector.

  • Provide technical leadership during project delivery, including oversight of mechanical design intent, equipment selection and installation practices.
  • Collaborate with bid teams to ensure alignment of mechanical design during tender phases; review technical documentation; refine cost estimates; and develop competitive proposals.
  • Work closely with procurement teams to define scopes, engage vendors (including RFQ processes), and coordinate equipment selection.
  • Build strong relationships with clients and stakeholders—acting as a key technical liaison to present solutions confidently and ensure stakeholder satisfaction.
  • Mentor junior staff; manage client relationships; evaluate tenders; develop contract documentation; and drive innovation on high-value projects.

Proven leadership in mechanical design for water or wastewater treatment projects is essential. Strong communication skills, stakeholder engagement experience, familiarity with digital engineering platforms (such as BIM/Revit), and the ability to deliver under pressure are highly regarded.
