We are seeking a Structural Engineer to support demolition, fit-out and remediation projects through structural assessments, site inspections, and the development of safe and practical engineering solutions, including temporary works, sequencing and constructability advice.
The role involves providing technical input across design review, tendering and project delivery, including RFIs, value engineering and risk management, while ensuring compliance with Australian Standards.
Duties and Responsibilities
* Review structural drawings, engineering specifications, reports and construction documentation to assess structural systems, load paths, stability requirements, constructability, and project risks across demolition, fit-out, remediation and associated works.
* Apply professional structural engineering judgement to assess structural integrity, demolition methodologies, temporary works requirements, load transfer considerations, and sequencing strategies for proposed works.
* Conduct engineering site inspections to assess existing structural conditions, identify potential structural constraints and hazards, and evaluate factors affecting methodology, safety, constructability and project delivery.
* Provide structural engineering input into pre-construction planning, including assessment of methodologies, staging, access requirements, temporary support systems, and engineering feasibility.
* Assist in the preparation and review of engineering-related RFIs, technical clarifications, scope reviews and responses to consultants, clients and subcontractors during tender and delivery stages.
* Support value engineering initiatives by assessing alternative structural methodologies, sequencing approaches and construction solutions to improve safety, efficiency and commercial outcomes.
* Ensure engineering recommendations and project methodologies are implemented in accordance with relevant Australian Standards, workplace safety requirements and project specifications.
Technical Competencies
* Strong understanding of structural stability and load transfer behaviour
* Temporary works and construction sequencing methodologies
* Australian Standards (AS 1170, AS 3600, etc.)
* Construction methodology development
* Ability to interpret IFC and engineering drawings at a high level
* Knowledge of construction risk identification and mitigation
Requirements
* Bachelor’s degree in Civil/Structural Engineering (or equivalent)
* White Card (mandatory)
* Current driver’s licence
* Right to work in Australia. Australian citizens and permanent residents are encouraged to apply.
