Ballarat, Victoria, Australia MC Earthmoving Pty Ltd Full time

Ready to get off the sidelines and lead some of Australia's most interesting civil projects?

Join a growing team where you can work shoulder to shoulder with industry leaders, make your mark on niche projects, and still enjoy a culture built on respect, ownership, and opportunity.

About Us – MC Earthmoving

We're a well-established and highly regarded civil construction and earthmoving company, with a reputation for delivering high-quality work across challenging, large-scale projects throughout Victoria, NSW and beyond.

From dam builds to subdivisions, regional road upgrades to tailings dams, we take on technically complex projects and deliver results through practical experience, precision, and people-first leadership.

The Opportunity

We're looking for a Project Engineer who can wear multiple hats: estimator, planner, coordinator, on-site leader. You will be part of the action from day one, including but not limited to:  pricing work, supporting tender submissions, assisting with managing crews on site if required, and driving project outcomes right through to completion.

This is a hands-on, site-based role. You will be where the work is, that can be across metro Melbourne, regional Victoria, NSW, or interstate. We don't do cookie-cutter projects, every site brings new challenges, new locations, and a chance to grow your impact.

Your Day-to-Day Will Include:

·       Estimating and pricing civil and earthworks projects

·       Supporting tender preparation and feasibility analysis

·       Overseeing project delivery from planning to completion

·       Managing contracts, budgets, claims, and variations

·       Conducting GPS surveys, inspections, and reporting

·       Coordinating with clients, subcontractors, and councils

·       Leading safety, environmental, and quality compliance

·       Mentoring site crews and working closely with the Director and Foremen

We're Looking for Someone Who:

·       Has a Civil Engineering degree and 3–5+ years in a project/site engineer role

·       Has proven civil construction experience, earthworks, roads, dams, subdivisions

·       Is confident in estimating, cost tracking, and project forecasting

·       Knows their way around AutoCAD, Civil 3D, GPS tools, and construction software

·       Communicates clearly and leads by example

·       Loves being on-site, in the thick of it, not just behind a desk

·       Is happy to travel and work away (we cover everything)

·       Brings energy, accountability, and a great attitude to the team

What's In It for You?

·       Exciting, high-profile civil projects - no two jobs are the same

·       Company vehicle and tools of trade

·       Competitive salary + away allowances

·       Long-term growth and leadership opportunities

·       A supportive team culture where your voice matters

·       Respectful, hands-on leadership that works with you
