Job Description

\n

Ready to step into a role where you’re not just overseeing projects, but shaping them and the people delivering them? This is an opportunity for a seasoned RPEQ Engineer to lead multidisciplinary work, mentor a growing team and play a key role in how projects are delivered across the business.

About the role\n

This is a senior leadership role with a strong mix of technical oversight, project direction and team development.

\n

You’ll take the lead on civil and multidisciplinary projects, setting the technical direction, supporting project teams and ensuring delivery is on track commercially and operationally. While you’ll still stay close enough to the work to influence design outcomes, your focus will be on guiding teams, managing risk and maintaining quality across multiple projects.

\n

You’ll work closely with leadership while also being the go‑to person for engineers in the team, providing mentoring, reviewing work and helping others grow in capability and confidence.

\n

Client engagement is a key part of the role, building relationships with stakeholders, contributing to proposals and providing trusted advice throughout project lifecycles.

\n Must have:

\n
    \n
  • RPEQ certification
  • \n
  • 15+ years’ experience in civil engineering

  • \n
  • An interest in helping shape team capability and office growth
  • \n
\n

This role suits someone who enjoys leading from the front, while still being approachable and invested in developing others.

The Environment and Team\n

The Townsville office is known for being genuinely supportive, collaborative and down-to‑earth. There’s a strong culture of mentoring, with senior staff actively helping junior engineers develop, while also learning from each other along the way.

\n

It’s an open environment where people are encouraged to speak up about the type of projects or work they want to be involved in. Leadership is receptive and works with the team to align opportunities wherever possible.

\n

The team also makes time to connect outside of project work, with regular lunches, morning teas and informal catch‑ups. It’s a professional environment, but one where people enjoy working together and supporting each other.

\n
    \n
  • Opportunity to lead projects and influence technical direction
  • \n
  • A genuine focus on mentoring and developing the team
  • \n
  • Flexibility to shape project involvement and areas of focus
  • \n
  • Strong pipeline of multidisciplinary work
  • \n
  • A collaborative team that values input and initiative
  • \n
  • A workplace that balances high standards with a supportive culture
  • \n
  • Additional day of leave on your birthday
  • \n
  • Annual Wellness Benefit to use towards healthy lifestyle initiatives
  • \n
  • Grow our team with generous referral bonuses
  • \n
\n

This is a good move if you’re looking for a leadership role where you can have real impact, without losing the connection to projects and people.
