* Major 100m³ wind turbine foundation project
* Hands-on site-based PE role (not desk-based)
Key Responsibilities
* Coordinate on-site engineering activities in line with specifications, timelines, and budget.
* Develop construction methodologies and detailed work plans.
* Maintain and report on 4-week look-ahead, delay notices, EOT claims, and construction programs.
* Provide accurate reporting on cost, time, and quality metrics.
* Drive value-engineered solutions and support procurement and subcontractor management.
* Ensure QA documentation, ITPs, and safety standards are met to the highest level.
* Lead site coordination meetings and provide engineering support to supervisors and crews.
* Identify project risks and manage variations and contractual claims.
Training & Development
* Structured onboarding and a tailored Project Management Training Program.
* Hands-on training in QA systems, ASTA PowerProject, and WHS procedures.
* Opportunities for career development planning, mentoring, and leadership.
About You
* Bachelor's degree in civil engineering or construction management.
* 3–6 years of civil infrastructure experience, ideally site-based.
* Strong background in structural concrete, bridges, or stormwater projects.
* Proactive, hands-on approach – comfortable working directly onsite.
