Lead SMP Engineer

About the Project

We are partnering with Stantec – Energy & Resources to deliver the study for a world-class gold project in South East Asia. This large-scale greenfield development is progressing through its Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS), with early works and execution phases to follow.

The project involves:

  • Extensive non-process infrastructure (NPI) including port facilities, tanks, pumps, and pipelines
  • A remote location requiring robust design solutions for storage, handling, and utilities
  • Study-level outcomes that will set a defensible baseline for execution readiness
  • Multiple engineering offices working in parallel, requiring strong integration and coordination

About the Role

The Lead SMP Engineer will take ownership of the mechanical, structural, and piping scope, with a particular focus on port and NPI facilities.

Key responsibilities:

  • Lead design and engineering for tanks, pumps, pipelines, fuel storage, and supporting NPI infrastructure
  • Develop study-level layouts for port facilities, workshops, maintenance buildings, and logistics hubs
  • Oversee SMP integration across conveyors, materials handling, water and dewatering networks, and site services
  • Provide preliminary equipment lists, datasheets, and specifications to support cost estimation and long-lead procurement planning
  • Coordinate structural requirements for foundations, supports, and port-related structures such as wharves or load-out facilities
  • Work closely with civil, electrical, and process teams to ensure alignment of SMP deliverables with the broader project scope
  • Ensure study outputs are robust, constructible, and positioned to feed into Class 3 estimating and execution

About You

We are seeking an experienced SMP Engineer with:

  • Proven leadership experience across large-scale mining or resources projects
  • Strong background in mechanical, structural, and piping design, with emphasis on port and NPI infrastructure
  • Experience with tanks, pumps, pipelines, conveyors, and associated utilities
  • Prior study-phase experience and understanding of the transition into execution deliverables
  • Familiarity with constructability reviews and integration into Class 3 cost estimates
  • Ability to manage multiple stakeholders and deliver consistent, defensible outputs

Roster & Conditions

  • Monday to Friday, based in Perth or Brisbane
  • Hybrid work options – up to 1 day WFH per week for lead roles
  • Hours: 40 per week plus approved overtime
  • Initial 12-month contract, aligned with DFS delivery
  • Rates: to be confirmed
