Structural Engineer – Rare Opportunity in Brisbane
Are you a skilled Structural Engineer looking for a fresh change? This is a rare opportunity to step into an executive role, move into leadership as part of a truly incredible team and well-established and growing engineering firm. With a strong pipeline of diverse projects and the chance to shape and expand a new Brisbane team, this role is perfect for someone who is hands-on, technically strong, and ready to make an impact.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
- A career-defining role with real succession and growth potential.
- The chance to be mentored % encourged to lead, build, and grow a team in Brisbane.
- Exposure to a variety of projects beyond traditional structural work – including solar farms, marine structures, commercial buildings, bridges, and transport infrastructure.
- A supportive, down-to-earth team culture with no egos – just genuine, talented professionals.
- Flexibility to work from home and utilise the Brisbane office.
- Monthly travel to project sites, including interstate and regional locations.
- Technically strong Structural Engineer with a hands-on approach, ideally 5-8 years.
- Leadership capabilities with the ability to mentor and grow a team.
- A self-starter who’s equally comfortable rolling up their sleeves for design work and leading projects.
- Someone who thrives in a dynamic smaller team environment, where no two days are the same
- The ability to collaborate with civil, structural, and geotechnical teams for integrated solutions.
- RPEQ is desirable, not essential. Relevant engineering software and design tools, ideally SPACE GASS
- Full unlimited work rights – either PR holder or Australian/NZ citizenship. We further seek those with strong local experience.
This role offers a diverse mix of responsibilities, from structural design and inspections to site visits and technical problem-solving. One day, you might be writing an insurance report for a residential dwelling, and the next, contributing to complex bridge or solar farm infrastructure design. If you’re looking for something bigger, better, and different – this is the opportunity to take your career to the next level.
