• Building and maintaining trusted relationships with clients and stakeholders.


• Preparing proposals and pursuing opportunities to support the growth of the maritime team.


• Preparing and reviewing technical reports, specifications and design documentation.


• Coaching and mentoring developing engineers and contributing to a strong team culture.


• Providing design management and technical leadership across projects in Australia and internationally.
