Offer description

Want to bring ideas to life? Aurecon is a leading design, engineering and advisory company - but why should you choose to join us? Every project Aurecon delivers leaves a legacy. Every project has sustainability embedded in decision making and every project is at the leading-edge of technical eminence. If you’re looking for a fresh challenge, why choose Aurecon? It comes down to one, crucial question. What kind of world do you want to create for the next generation? Truth is, the decisions being made right now will determine the future of everything – from the local community to the entire planet. One of those decisions is: who do you decide to work for? How will your ideas contribute to shaping what’s next? As a Senior Design Manager joining our expanding Victorian Water Team, you will play an integral part in a highly skilled team to engineer resilient and sustainable water infrastructure solutions. You’ll contribute to complex, city shaping projects such as treatment plants, pump stations and pipelines – working with a highly skilled team committed to excellence. Here are the key things you will do to ‘bring ideas to life’: Lead the design management of major water and wastewater projects, including treatment plants, pump stations and pipelines. Coordinate multidisciplinary engineering teams to deliver integrated, constructible, and compliant design solutions. Oversee the full design lifecycle - from concept to detailed design and delivery support - ensuring quality, accuracy and alignment with client requirements. Identify and manage technical and delivery risks, resolving issues early and supporting smooth project delivery. Work closely with clients, contractors and internal project managers to maintain strong relationships and achieve time, cost and quality outcomes. Provide leadership, mentorship and technical guidance to junior engineers, fostering collaboration, growth and innovation within the team What we’re looking for: Tertiary qualification in Engineering (or equivalent). Chartered status with Engineers Australia (or equivalent), and RPEV registration. Strong technical understanding of water and wastewater infrastructure, including treatment plants and pump stations. 10 years’ experience in similar roles, ideally within D&C environments. Knowledge of relevant Australian water industry standards and codes. Demonstrated experience leading multidisciplinary teams and coordinating with contractors on major projects. Strong communication, leadership, problem solving and stakeholder engagement skills. Ability to foster a culture of learning, innovation and collaboration while supporting your own professional development. How will your future be shaped by us? Joining Aurecon means you’ll be at the award-winning edge of innovation and sustainability. AFR ranked us Top 5 among sustainability leaders and Top 3 of all innovative companies in professional services. One Consult awarded us an innovative design award. Plus, we were Consult Australia’s large firm of the year. You really can bring your whole self to work and be confident your voice will be heard. We don’t just claim we’re inclusive and innovative, as proven by the independent awards and accreditations we’ve gained. We’ve been recognised for our innovation culture, gender equality and our LGBTI inclusion. Plus, we have a robust Reconciliation Action Plan – our fourth edition since 2014. On a personal level you’ll have access to flexible work hours, remote work, part-time and job share options. You’ll continue to grow, thanks to learning and development opportunities that further your eminence, leadership, and professional accreditations. Outside of work, you’ll be further supported with competitive paid parental leave, cultural public holiday swaps, plus wellbeing support programmes. Who is Aurecon? Aurecon’s strength has always been our people. It’s our people who build our shared purpose and bring ideas to life. It’s our people who imagine and co-create with our clients a better future for people and the planet. Of course, you’ll probably know lots of our award-winning projects.
