Lead Signalling Engineer

Want to bring ideas to life?

As an engineer you’re no doubt aware of Aurecon – we’ve been a leading design, engineering and advisory company for decades. But why should you choose to join us? 

Every project Aurecon delivers leaves a legacy. Every project has sustainability at the heart of every decision. And every project is at the leading-edge of technical eminence.

But 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 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 Lead Signalling Engineer, you’ll be a vital part of the team who are changing the way we design and deliver major works to be carbon neutral and sustainable.

Your role will include:

Actively contribute to the development of Aurecon’s Rail expertise through your passion for eminence in your field

Provide supervision of a team of like-minded signalling professionals to develop their potential and deliver work to client’s satisfaction.

Prepare and review signalling designs, from concept through to detailed design.

Collaborate and Integrate the signalling design with other rail and civil disciplines.

Engaging and advising with clients, working collaboratively across Aurecon teams and desire to pursue new ways of working, delivering complex projects

Preparation of investigations, including data gathering and report writing to support scope preparation, costing, design, and commissioning outputs

How will your future be shaped by us?

Joining Aurecon means you’ll be at the award-winning edge of innovation and sustainability. AFR ranked us Top 5 among sustainability leaders and Top 3 of all innovative companies in professional services.

One Consult awarded us an innovative design award. Plus, we were Consult Australia’s large firm of the year.

You really can bring your whole self to work and be confident your voice will be heard. We don’t just claim we’re inclusive and innovative, as proven by the independent awards and accreditations we’ve gained.

We’ve been recognised for our innovation culture, gender equality and our LGBTI+ inclusion. Plus, we have a robust Reconciliation Action Plan – our fourth edition since 2014. 

On a personal level you’ll have access to flexible work hours, remote work, working holidays, part-time and job share options.

You’ll also have – a learning programme 100% personalised to you and 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 Careers Hub.

Outside of work, you’ll be further supported with competitive paid parental leave, cultural public holiday swaps, plus wellbeing support programmes.

What are we looking for from you?

You’ll have a genuine passion for re-imagining problems and continuous learning to help shape the future. 

As well as experience in a similar Signalling role. Specifically –

Relevant qualification in Electrical/Electronic Engineering or related discipline with RPEQ or ability to obtain RPEQ

Experience with signalling design on medium to large rail projects

A self-motivated individual that enjoys working in a collaborative and delivery focused environment

Think you know Aurecon? You may be surprised.

Aurecon’s strength has always been our people. It’s our people who build our shared purpose and bring ideas to life.

It’s our people who imagine and co-create with our clients a better future for people and the planet.

Of course, you’llprobably know lots of our award-winning projects. The new Allianz Stadium in Sydney? That was us. Tāmaki Regeneration in Auckland? That was us too. And the Tseung Kwan O Interchange in Hong Kong? You guessed it, us.

So, when you join us, you’ll not only be joining an international design, engineering and advisory company but also a community working together to tackle some of the world’s most complex challenges.

Ready to bring ideas to life? 

Then please apply. Remember, it’s you and how you bring ideas to life which are important.

Your background, unique needs and individuality will be valued.
