Our client is a reputable and fast-growing Structural Design & Forensic Engineering consultancy, now seeking a motivated Forensic Engineer to join their expanding Sydney team.

You’ll be involved in hands-on investigations, detailed structural analysis, and the preparation of high-quality technical reports.

  • Supportive and collaborative environment that values expertise, continuous learning, and technical excellence.
  • Ongoing professional development and opportunities for mentorship and growth.
  • Competitive salary package + vehicle allowance.
Key Responsibilities
  • Conduct site inspections to assess structural damage, defects, and performance issues.
  • Undertake forensic investigations of structural failures, building movement, and material degradation.
  • Perform structural analysis and contribute to the development of remedial or repair solutions.
  • Prepare clear, comprehensive, and technically sound reports for clients, insurers, and legal stakeholders.
  • Liaise professionally with clients, builders, insurers, and project partners.
  • Manage workload effectively across multiple active projects and deadlines.
About You
  • Bachelor’s degree in Civil/Structural Engineering (required).
  • Strong local experience in structural engineering—ideally across residential and commercial projects.
  • Experience in residential design, forensic engineering, or remedial/diagnostic investigations highly regarded.
  • Excellent written communication skills, with experience preparing technical reports.
  • Strong analytical thinking and attention to detail.
  • Valid Australian Driver’s Licence and willingness to travel for site work.
If you feel you have the right experience—even if you don’t meet every single requirement—we’d still love to hear from you.
