Senior Project Engineer | $400M+ Iconic Landmark Tower

* Location: Gold Coast (Surfers Paradise)
* Company: Leading Elite Developer-Builder
* Project: Career-defining $400M+ luxury high‐rise mega‐project
* Remuneration: Premium Tier‐1 level package + lucrative performance bonuses

The Opportunity

Every now and then, a project comes along that completely resets the benchmark for a city. This is that project. Positioned in the heart of Surfers Paradise, this $400M+ iconic tower is set to become one of the most prestigious architectural landmarks on the Australian coastline.

As a highly successful, fully integrated developer‐builder, we control the entire lifecycle of our projects. This means no adversarial client relationships—just an uncompromising focus on safety, design excellence, and world‐class delivery.

The Role

Reporting to the Project Manager, you will be a critical leader on site, driving the engineering team and managing substantial commercial and structural packages. This is a high‐visibility role requiring deep technical expertise in large‐scale vertical construction.

Your Key Responsibilities Will Include

* Lead complex structural packages, including deep basement excavations, specialized piling/dewatering (essential for the GC terrain), high‐cycle post‐tensioned slabs, and jump‐form systems.
* Own the letting and management of major multi‐million‐dollar subcontracts, managing scopes from inception to final account.
* Coordinate heavily with in‐house architectural and services teams to resolve complex constructability challenges before they impact the critical path.
* Drive look‐ahead schedules, manage variations and progress claims, and relentlessly mitigate risks to keep this mega‐project on time and on budget.
* Actively mentor and develop site and project engineers within a high‐performing project team.

About You

You are a seasoned engineer who thrives under the pressure of a massive site. You know what it takes to move a tower into the sky safely, efficiently, and to a premium standard.

To Be Successful In This Role, You Will Need

* A Bachelor's Degree in Civil/Structural Engineering or Construction Management.
* Minimum 5+ years of experience with a reputable Tier 1 or top‐tier Tier 2 builder in Australia.
* Proven experience working on high‐rise residential or mixed‐use towers ($150M+ single‐project value is essential).
* Strong technical aptitude in deep basements, heavy structures, and high‐end architectural finishes.
* Commercial acumen—you know how to manage contracts fiercely but fairly.
* A collaborative attitude that fits seamlessly into a developer‐builder environment.

What's on Offer?

* A Resume Goldmine: The opportunity to put a $400M+ iconic Surfers Paradise landmark at the very top of your project list.
* True Autonomy: The backing of an integrated developer‐builder model where decisions are made fast, and quality is never sacrificed for a third‐party margin.
* Top‐Tier Compensation: An exceptional salary package designed to attract and retain the best talent in the country.
* Gold Coast Lifestyle: Enjoy world‐class beaches and a premium coastal lifestyle while working on a project of capital‐city scale.
