Job description

• Respected civil contractor with a strong pipeline of work
• Mentorship to help you work towards becoming an SPE
• $145,000 to $170,000 + Flights + Accommodation + Company Vehicle

Challenging role for an ambitious Project Engineer with the confidence to step in, work through issues, and keep a project moving.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This role is site-based. Not head office, not remote support.

Our Client is based in Brisbane but they need you to be happy to work on projects in regional areas in Qld and NSW.

Rosters vary from project to project, but they are typically 5/2 or 10/4.

You'll be:

• Part of the project team delivering the work, not sitting back reviewing it;
• Working alongside supervisors, engineers and project managers, making sure what's planned actually happens on site;
• Across planning, cost, programme, quality and subcontractors. One minute you're reviewing drawings and methodology, the next dealing with variations, tracking costs or solving something that's holding the job up;
• Expected to think, make calls and take ownership.

Why Apply?

• Respected civil contractor with a strong pipeline of work

What makes you a great fit (but don't stress if you don't tick every box)

• A Civil Engineering degree;
• Minimum of 3 years of experience on project sites, not just office exposure;
• Ability to read drawings and understand how they translate on site;
• Comfortable dealing with supervisors, subcontractors and different personalities;
• Solid understanding of cost, programme and how projects run
• Willingness to be site-based and move with the work (QLD / NSW projects)
• Someone who doesn't wait to be told what to do

Nice to Have (but not essential)

• Exposure to TMR and RMS projects would put you above other applications;
• Experience with cost tracking, variations and project reporting;
• Solid working knowledge of planning tools like MS Project or P6;
• Honed commercial awareness, understanding that delivery, cost and time all matter;
• Experience working on live, fast-moving project environments.
