About Us
Rockfield is a multidisciplinary engineering and technology consultancy delivering advanced computational modelling, asset integrity solutions, and site-based services across Australia. With expertise spanning heavy industry, mining, transport infrastructure, and public assets, we support our clients through all stages of the asset lifecycle—from design and diagnostics to condition assessments and remediation. Our Perth team plays a leading role in structural integrity and inspection services, backed by a national network of technical specialists. At Rockfield, we're committed to engineering excellence, collaboration, and offering rewarding career pathways across a diverse range of sectors.
Your Next Opportunity
We're looking for a Senior Structural Engineer to join our Perth team. With over 10 years of industry experience under your belt, you'll bring deep practical expertise to a mix of asset condition assessment, risk-based structural evaluations, and remedial design delivery - both from the office and in the field.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys the variety of technical work and time on-site, and who thrives in a company that supports career development across multiple sectors and engineering challenges.
Key Responsibilities
You'll play a pivotal role across a wide range of projects, including:
Structural Integrity Inspections & Condition Assessments: Lead field-based structural inspections, condition monitoring, life extension reviews, and failure investigations across assets in heavy industry, transport, and infrastructure sectors.
Remedial Design and Technical Delivery: Support and oversee the preparation of site-responsive remedial designs, including calculations, reports, and sketch markups
Site-Based Support: Conduct regular site visits for inspection, troubleshooting, and client engagement. A sound understanding of structural load paths and risk-based prioritisation is critical to support accurate condition assessments.
Project and Client Management: Manage project deliverables, client expectations, schedules, and budgets, while building strong relationships across Rockfield's multidisciplinary teams and client networks.
Mentoring & Leadership: Support the development of junior engineers through knowledge sharing and mentoring, contributing to a strong technical culture.
About You
You're a curious, driven engineer who enjoys solving practical challenges and seeing your work make a tangible impact in the field. You may have over 10 years of experience - or you may be earlier in your career but bring strong relevant site-based skills and a willingness to lead.
You'll ideally bring:
10+ years' experience in structural engineering (or less with relevant inspection experience)
Significant site-based exposure and a willingness to balance field and office work
A degree in Structural or Civil Engineering (or related), with full Australian working rights
Familiarity with structural analysis tools (e.g., Space Gass, Strand7, ANSYS, Mathcad)
Ability to produce high quality PDF sketches using programs, such as Bluebeam.
Knowledge of relevant Australian Standards (e.g., AS4100, AS5100, AS1170)
Strong communication skills and a collaborative mindset
What We Offer
At Rockfield, we offer more than just a job - we offer a career with purpose. You'll enjoy:
A balanced mix of office-based and site-based work
Site-based loading and per-diems
Flexible working options to suit your lifestyle
Opportunities to shape your career path - across design, fieldwork, leadership, or technical excellence
Competitive remuneration and performance incentives
A supportive, technically minded team that values integrity and innovation
