Job Description

Senior Project Engineer | Local Brisbane Civil Projects

Lead with purpose. Deliver with integrity. Grow with a team that backs you.

Are you a Senior Project Engineer—or a hands-on Project Manager—ready to join a business that actually walks the talk when it comes to culture, leadership, and work-life balance?

This well-established civil contractor is making steady waves across Brisbane. They’re not chasing headlines—they’re quietly delivering quality projects, building strong client relationships, and creating a culture where people stick around.

Now, with a strong pipeline of local infrastructure projects ahead, they’re looking for someone who’s ready to step up, lead from the front, and make an impact.


Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Built on Integrity – Known for doing things the right way, not the flashy way.
  • Leadership That Backs You – Practical, hands-on, and invested in your success.
  • Diverse Civil Projects – From roads and rail to subdivisions, drainage, and bulk earthworks.
  • Monday to Friday Role – Your weekends are yours. Always.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Lead Delivery – Drive engineering outcomes across local Brisbane projects.
  • Mentor the Team – Guide and support junior engineers as a respected leader.
  • Engage Stakeholders – Build trust with clients, councils, and delivery partners.
  • Own the Outcome – Oversee safety, quality, and programming from start to finish.

What You’ll Bring

  • A degree in Civil Engineering and 8+ years of infrastructure delivery experience
  • Capability across roads, structures, services, and/or subdivisions
  • Strong leadership, communication, and stakeholder engagement skills
  • A proactive mindset, with a focus on quality, teamwork, and accountability

What’s In It for You?

  • Career Growth – A company that actively develops its people
  • Supportive Culture – Work with leaders who lead with integrity
  • Work-Life Balance – Monday to Friday focus—your time matters
  • Long-Term Projects – A stable pipeline across South East Queensland
