Lead Civil Engineer

We are proud to be partnering with Stantec – Energy & Resources to deliver the study for a world-class gold project in Southeast Asia. Stantec are assembling a highly skilled team across Australia to deliver this challenging assignment for their international client.

Resourcing this study from Australia reflects Stantec's strategy to increase its focus on major projects, strengthening capability in the local resources sector while contributing to global delivery. As a flagship project, its successful outcome will provide strong visibility within Stantec and open doors to future opportunities, both in Australia and across their global network.

About the Project

This large-scale greenfield development is progressing through its Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS), with early works and execution phases to follow.

The project presents the complexities typical of major gold and copper developments in the region:

  • Extensive bulk earthworks and drainage requirements in challenging terrain
  • Remote location, requiring robust planning for logistics and non-process infrastructure
  • Large and diverse work packages across NPI, port, and processing facilities
  • Study-level outcomes that will set the baseline for execution readiness

About the Role

The Lead Civil Engineer will be responsible for managing civil design and engineering across multiple offices, with a strong focus on bulk earthworks and drainage. Responsibilities include:

  • Leading the civil scope for bulk earthworks, drainage, and hydrology
  • Managing inputs across study offices and coordinating design consistency
  • Providing technical leadership on earthworks, recognised as the biggest unknown in the project
  • Supporting integration of civil design with GIS/Arc deliverables and study outputs
  • Ensuring civil deliverables meet study timelines while positioning for execution transition

This role requires a hands-on leader with the authority to guide teams, resolve uncertainties in earthworks, and provide robust study-level outcomes that can be refined into execution.

About You

We are seeking a civil engineering professional with:

  • Proven leadership experience on major projects, ideally in mining, resources, or infrastructure
  • Strong background in bulk earthworks, drainage, and hydrology design
  • Strong flood modeling experience
  • Experience managing design teams across multiple offices
  • Study-phase experience with an understanding of how outcomes feed into execution readiness
  • Ability to work closely with geotechnical, structural, and project controls teams to ensure accuracy and alignment

Roster & Conditions

  • Monday to Friday, based in Perth
  • Hybrid work options – up to 1-day WFH per week for lead roles
  • Hours: 40 per week plus approved overtime
