Feel like your next step just isn't materialising?
You're senior in everything but title. You've got the technical depth, the project runs, the client presence, but the path forward at your current firm is either unclear or blocked.
That's exactly what this opportunity is built to fix.
The Firm
This is one of Australia's largest and most respected building services consultancies-part of a global engineering group with 30,000 people across 450+ locations worldwide.
Nationally, they sit at around 200-250 people. In Sydney, the office runs 60-70 strong. They've delivered some of the country's most recognised built environment projects and continue to win major work across commercial, defence, data centres, education, health, transport, and more.
Their leadership team has an average age of 40, one of the youngest senior teams of any major consultancy in Australia. That matters. It means decisions get made faster, technology gets adopted earlier, and the people above you are genuinely invested in your growth.
Projects
The project pipeline here is broad and genuinely high-calibre. Live and recent work spans:
* Major mixed-use and commercial developments
* Rail and transport infrastructure
* Aviation and retail precincts
* Large-scale residential and precinct-level master planning
They place a genuine emphasis on people, long-term development, and work/life balance. This isn't boilerplate-the benefits package is one of the strongest in the market:
* 5 weeks annual leave
* Flexible working arrangements
* Fee reimbursement for further education
* Subsidised health and fitness memberships
* Professional membership reimbursement
* Annual bonus structures
* Employee share purchase plan
* Recognition and reward programs
Add to that regular social events, fundraising initiatives, and a leadership team that actually knows your name, and you've got a firm where people genuinely stick around.
The Role & Opportunity
This is a Senior Mechanical Engineer position. You'll step into an active project environment from day one, working across a strong pipeline of live work.
Here's what makes this one different: the existing team leader is providing structured, close mentorship from the moment you join. This isn't vague \"support\", there is a clear succession plan in place, with the expectation that you step into the team leader role within the first 12 months.
That succession is non-negotiable. It's built into this hire. If you're technically strong, commercially aware, and you want a defined path into leadership with a firm that will back you to get there-this is structured for you.
What We're Looking For
* Mechanical engineering background within a building services consultancy
* 5+ years of experience, with strong design delivery at a senior level
* Comfortable leading projects and managing client relationships
* Strong communication, QA and documentation skills
* Someone who wants to lead, not just technically, but as a team
