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 our new Contaminated Land Consultant, you’ll work with a team of highly skilled specialists. You’ll be a trusted partner to a diverse range of international clients and develop a deep understanding of their challenges to co-create innovative solutions that help shape the future.

Looking forward, we have a challenging and expanding workload in the Contaminated Land Team. We have a number of opportunities at a range of experience levels providing specialist technical advice on large-scale infrastructure projects, within the energy market, defence, utilities and resources sectors. Many of our projects are multidisciplinary and involve working with other environmental, planning, engineering and design specialists across the projects and at various stages of development and delivery.

Here are the key things you’ll do:

- Assistance with preparing contaminated land related deliverables (impact assessments, factual and interpretive reports, environmental management plans, remediation and spoil reuse options assessments, etc).
- Supervision or oversight of field activities to ensure proposed scope is being undertaken.
- Liaison with design teams with regard to the scope of project works.
- Attendance and presentation at client meetings.

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.
