  • Eligibility for admission to the Engineers Australia as a Member (MIEAust) - mandatory
  • Experience in Contract and Program Management 
  • Sound knowledge of civil engineering principles, procedures and practices as applied in the water industry
  • Experience in technical review or auditing of designs and concepts prepared by others
  • Intermediate knowledge of Safety in Design principles, key OH&S Acts, Regulations and Codes of Practice
  • Basic understanding of Quality Assurance systems and processes

What's in it for you?

You can expect to enjoy the following benefits of working at South East Water:

  • A commitment to work-life balance with truly flexible working arrangements, including hybrid working and leave purchasing. 
  • A range of benefits, including 15 weeks paid parental leave for all parents (plus paid super on unpaid parental leave), free on-site parking and cultural leave. 
  • The opportunity to be part of an organisation committed to environmental initiatives, with a great culture of collaborative teams with strong work ethics. 
  • Career focused learning and development opportunities. 
  • Enjoy modern office facilities with panoramic beachfront views.

We're for everyone

We do meaningful work, but how we do it is just as important. We’re here to help people live well, protect the environment, and keep healthy water and resources accessible and affordable for all.  We know to make a positive difference we need to support our people to be their very best. Flexibility and innovation are at the heart of how we work.  But it’s our people’s collective ambition, authenticity and differences that bring our culture to life. 

Our people are as diverse as the communities we serve. Everyone brings a unique voice and a refreshing perspective that keeps us innovating. It makes us better learners, thinkers and collaborators, helping create better outcomes for our customers. Even though we’re all different, we still share a common goal to deliver healthy water for life.
