The Opportunity

Working across a large program of work you will take the lead in some areas and work as a team player in others. In this position you will work on specification and design engineering related to structures and foundations made predominantly of concrete and steel. Structures you may work on in this role include portal frames, silos, large slabs, pipe supports, industrial structures and all process plant related structures. This role has a major focus on supporting water authority clients but will also have diversity.

Tasks will include both design of small straightforward assignments and assistance in design of larger and more complex assignments, both of which involve conventional engineering plans, innovative solutions, investigations and surveys.

Who are you?

As a Senior Structural Engineer you will be able to perform all conventional aspects of structural engineering. You will be able to evaluate, select, and apply standard engineering techniques, procedures, and criteria, using judgment in making relevant adaptions and modifications. Having work experience in the water sector will be highly desirable.

Key responsibilities will include but not be limited to:

• Perform structural calculations and analysis in accordance with Australian Standards to support design projects.
• Assist in preparing tender documents, including scopes, inclusions/exclusions, and estimates for design and documentation efforts.
• Participate in project meetings, briefings, and discussions, sharing insights and ensuring information flows effectively.
