About This Project Engineer Role
This role is pivotal in ensuring the successful delivery of project works along a major rail corridor.
Based in Seymour and Tallarook, you will oversee engineering activities, manage project timelines, and provide technical support to ensure safety, quality, and environmental compliance.
Your experience delivering in a fast-paced construction environment, technical acumen and leadership will be critical to ensuring the components of this project are delivered with precision, adhering to safety and quality standards.
Working in collaboration with project managers, the engineering team, and other key stakeholders, you will coordinate and supervise the construction elements of the project from inception to completion.
This role will be instrumental in the completion of the project, showcasing your advanced skills and flexibility, which will be particularly challenged due to the project's complex staging in a developed, brownfield environment.
The complexity is further increased by the need to synchronize efforts within the jurisdictions of two separate rail operators.
Project Overview
A national freight network is being transformed through the Inland Rail program, connecting Melbourne and Brisbane via regional Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland.
This 1,700km fast freight backbone will better connect producers to markets and create new opportunities for regional businesses, industries and communities.
The Beveridge to Albury (B2A) project is the Victorian portion of the program undertaken along approximately 305 kms of existing northeast rail corridor between Beveridge and Albury.
The B2A project is staged in two tranches. Tranche 1 includes enhancement works across four sites and corridor wide works.
Tranche 2 works will be delivered, including adjustment of track alignments, provision of new road overbridges and station modifications to enable the safe operation of double-stack freight trains across eight B2A project sites between Wandong and Benalla.
