  • Staying updated on developments and technological changes in the rail industry, positioning the Rail Business Group to seize opportunities while acknowledging constraints and risks.
  • Maintaining and improving internal rail engineering practices and processes, ensuring effective communication, understanding, and efficiency.
  • Leading the Rail Engineering team in supporting the business engineering requirements and facilitating the individual development goals of rail discipline engineers within the unit.
  • Developing and implementing a rail engineering capability aligned with future engineering proficiency expectations, in line with projected business development plans and strategies.
  • Reviewing established engineering governance processes and practices, making appropriate changes to enhance transparency, effectiveness, and efficiency.

To be successful in this key role, you must have:

  • Degree in (Civil or Mechanical or Electrical) Engineering that meets or exceeds AQF Level 7
  • Certificate III or above in Systems Engineering practices and processes
  • 10+ years in operations and/or maintenance of railways.

  • Demonstrated excellent communication and leadership skills.

What’s in it for you?

We’re about connecting your sense of purpose to ours. We understand that your career is one of the biggest ways to have an impact on the world. We also believe in supporting you as a whole person, not just an employee.

We reward and support our people in so many ways. This starts with being flexible about how different people like to work. From generous leave policies to wellbeing and relationship support, your needs sit at the heart of our employee benefits.

We offer:

  • Competitive remuneration with salary continuance, and salary sacrifice options.
  • Great leave benefits including 18 weeks paid parental leave with super and up to an extra 18 weeks of super paid on further periods of unpaid parental leave, multicultural leave exchange and two extra days to prioritise your wellbeing.
  • Career progression underpinned by our exciting pipeline of work means you’ll have the opportunity to work on iconic projects that are shaping cities and communities.
  • Learning and development opportunities where you’ll have access to emerging talent programs, building your career through clear career pathways, plus technical and leadership training and development opportunities.
  • Inclusion, diversity and equity is part of how we work. We want everyone at John Holland to feel that they belong – that’s why we’re working hard every day to foster a more inclusive culture, backed by a business-wide inclusion strategy to bring about meaningful change. We’ve also got active employee resource groups that support our commitments including those around gender equality and reconciliation.
  • Flexible working that works for you as we know flexibility means different things to different people. Whether it’s flexi-hours, flexi-parenting, flexi-leave, flexi-shifts or flexi-work, we’re committed to helping our people work flexibly.
