Civil Surveyor – Shape the Future of Central QLD Projects
Own your role. Lead the function. Deliver the region's biggest civil projects.
-----------------------------------
About the Opportunity
We're not looking for just another Surveyor. We're looking for a leader — someone who's ready to step into a pivotal role, drive quality and precision across multiple major projects, and bring their own systems and ideas to the table.
As the Civil Surveyor at JRT Group, you'll be the go-to person for all things survey — owning the role across a pipeline of multi-million-dollar civil infrastructure works, including three new subdivisions kicking off shortly. This isn't a slot-filler role. You'll report directly into our senior leadership team, shape how surveying is done across the company, and work autonomously while being fully backed by a tight-knit, down-to-earth crew.
If you're looking to make your mark, take charge of something meaningful, and ditch the red tape — this is it.
-----------------------------------
What's on Offer
* Autonomy and ownership – run the survey arm your way
* Be at the center of major projects across Rockhampton, Yeppoon and Capricorn Coast
* Collaborate directly with Directors and Project Managers
* Permanent, full-time position – no labour hire
* Weekly pay, competitive wages and site allowances
* Monday–Friday roster – home every night
* Ongoing training and development – grow your leadership and tech skills
* Work with the latest gear and well-maintained fleet
* Positive, inclusive, no-BS culture that values initiative and loyalty
-----------------------------------
What You'll Bring
* Proven experience in a lead civil surveying role
* Strong background in subdivisions, roads, and large-scale earthworks
* Ability to set out, verify, and oversee survey works across multiple live sites
* High-level skills in data capture, QA documentation, and interpreting plans
* A proactive, problem-solving mindset – not just taking instructions but owning outcomes
* Great communication with crews, foremen, and engineers
* White Card and current Driver's Licence
* Surveying qualification (preferred)
