Young Dynamic & Growing Consultancy

We provide Property Consultancy services to Australasian property investors, owners, financiers, corporates, professional firms and asset managers. The principal services are Technical Due Diligence, CAPEX Forecasts, Sustainability, Make Good, Condition Reports, Tax Depreciation, et al.

The core skills within this Australian consultancy are the technical assessment of the physical condition of commercial assets coupled with a clear understanding of client property and asset strategies. An important competency of the consultants employed by this leading surveying firm is the ability to take a commercial view of property circumstances and information.

Our Sydney office is seeking a Mechanical Services Engineer with the capability to assess the compliance and condition of property assets (Mech, Elec, Fire, Hydraulic, VerTrans) and produce professional quality reports for high level institutional clients.

You will likely have a technical background as a Mechanical Services Engineer and you will have the core competencies that include:-

• The ability to write and present a cohesive, coherent and technically sound report for readership by high level executives;
• Excellent liaison skills with fellow engineers and consultants to be able to source relevant information for compilation in reports and assessments;
• A very professional demeanour that will allow interaction with high level property executives in formal and informal settings.

This is an opportunity to pursue a slightly different career path if you are looking for a change to your current circumstances.

You will excel in this role if you have first class technical skills and an inquisitive and searching attitude to building reports.

Competitive salary package plus performance bonus and unique career prospects working in a young dynamic organisation.

To be eligible to apply for this position you must have an appropriate Australian work visa.
