Job description

At Agilitus, we’re not your typical engineering and design consultancy, we’re a people‑first community built on collaboration, shared values, and a genuine no‑blame culture. We believe the best solutions come from working together (and having fun while we do it!).

We offer three career paths, technical, project, and people leadership, so you can grow in the direction that suits you best. Progression here is based on ability and attitude, not years of experience.

We’re also 100% employee‑owned, meaning every person has a real stake in our shared success. Our leadership development program supports emerging leaders at all levels, and our flexible structure means new opportunities are created as we grow.

The Opportunity

We have an exciting opportunity for a Senior Civil Engineer to join our Perth team. As our project portfolio continues to expand across the resources, energy, and industrial sectors, this role will play a key part in strengthening and growing our civil engineering and design capabilities. This is an excellent opportunity for a motivated and experienced engineer who enjoys technical challenges, values collaboration, and wants to contribute to a high‑performing team environment.

Our Civil team delivers engineering solutions across mining, energy, and infrastructure projects, with expertise in heavy haul roads, rail infrastructure, bulk earthworks, drainage and hydrology, water infrastructure, non‑process infrastructure (NPI), and construction support. We are recognised for delivering practical, constructible, and cost‑effective solutions that optimise project outcomes for our clients.

Key Responsibilities

• Deliver complex civil engineering design solutions with minimal supervision.
• Prepare and review engineering designs, calculations, technical reports, and supporting documentation.
• Interpret and apply relevant industry codes, standards, and client specifications.
• Provide technical leadership and guidance to junior engineers and designers.
• Review delegated work to ensure quality, accuracy, and compliance with project requirements.
• Contribute to project planning, design reviews, and client engagement activities.

About You

• Bachelor of Engineering (Civil)
• 8+ years’ experience
• Demonstrated experience delivering complex civil engineering designs within consulting, mining, energy, infrastructure, or related industries.
• Experience with tier‑one mining client standards
• Proficiency with civil engineering design software and associated tools.
• Ability to mentor and support developing engineers.
• Strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills.
• Collaborative approach with a commitment to delivering high‑quality outcomes.

On a personal level, you’ll be part of an inclusive, diverse, and equitable workplace. This will open the doors to flexible work arrangements to maintain a work‑life balance, tailored learning and development plans and career pathways, access to wellbeing services and more. We provide competitive remuneration including incentives and paid overtime, a generous paid primary and secondary parental leave policy, paid professional memberships and on‑the‑job mentoring and coaching with our industry‑leading technical experts. We are proud to promote our partnership with Engineers Australia, providing a supported pathway for our engineers to achieve chartered status.
