About The Company

Our client is a well-established and highly regarded engineering consultancy based in Melbourne, known for delivering safe, economical and sustainable structural, civil and heritage engineering solutions across Victoria and New South Wales. With a diverse project portfolio spanning education, residential, heritage conservation and infrastructure work, they've built a reputation as one of Melbourne's most reliable and collaborative consultancies — backed by ISO-certified quality, safety and environmental systems and a genuine focus on developing their people.

About The Role

We're looking for a Structural Engineer with 2-4 years' post-graduate experience to join a busy and supportive team. You'll work across a genuinely varied caseload — from timber, concrete, steel and masonry structures through to heritage-listed buildings, education facilities and residential developments — giving you real breadth to grow your technical skills and experience beyond a single sector.

This is an excellent opportunity for an intermediate engineer who wants to keep developing under experienced principals, take on increasing responsibility, and build a long-term career with a firm that invests in mentorship and progression toward Chartered/CPEng status.

Key Responsibilities

• Structural design and analysis across a range of materials (timber, concrete, steel, masonry)
• Preparation of drawings, specifications and reports
• Liaising with architects, clients, contractors and other consultants
• Contributing to projects across the education, residential, heritage and civil sectors
• Site inspections and contract administration as required

About You

• A tertiary qualification in Civil or Structural Engineering
• Approximately 2-4 years' relevant experience in a structural consulting environment
• Proficiency in structural analysis and CAD/BIM software
• Strong communication skills and the ability to manage your own workload
• A collaborative, detail-oriented approach and a genuine interest in developing your career
• Working towards (or eligible for) Chartered/CPEng status is highly regarded

What's on Offer

• $85,000 TRP (commensurate with experience)
• A clear pathway for career growth, with mentorship from experienced principals and senior engineers
• Genuine variety — heritage conservation, civil infrastructure and structural design projects, not just one sector
• A stable, well-regarded consultancy with a strong pipeline of work
• A supportive, down-to-earth team culture
