We are an employee‑owned company with over 11,000 diverse and skilled individuals across more than 200 offices spanning five continents. Water is at the center of our work, and we are committed to building resilience and sustainability for communities worldwide.


Overview

As the frequency and intensity of floods, droughts and storms increases, the water industry must continue to build resilience and lead from the front. Together with our clients, we think and do things differently to help pre‑empt and prepare for what's next. Be a part of a dynamic and committed team of diverse water specialists and drive change for your community.

* Provide technical leadership and project management to guide key projects and mentor other team members.
* Design and prepare winning proposals, investigations and technical design projects.
* Develop solutions and prepare technical reports, designs, specifications, client proposals and presentations.
* Build and maintain strong client relationships, including business development and engagement throughout project delivery.
* Work closely with clients to develop innovative technical solutions in wastewater and water treatment.


Qualifications

* Bachelor's degree in Civil or Mechanical Engineering, coupled with 8 to 12 years of relevant water or wastewater experience in either networks or treatment plants.
* Ability to lead and work effectively within a multi‑disciplinary team across the project lifecycle.
* Strong client relationship skills, project management skills, and experience in preparing winning proposals.
* Design or planning skills in water or wastewater networks or treatment, including producing technical reports, developing engineering drawings, specifications and tender documentation for water or wastewater treatment infrastructure.
* Experience with civil or hydraulic design software is preferable.
* Project management or design management experience, together with a willingness and ability to mentor and provide direction to junior staff.


Location and Hours

We value wellness and flexibility; the role can be part‑time or full‑time and you can be based in Newcastle or any of our Northern NSW offices (Port Macquarie, Coffs Harbour, Tuggerah, Tamworth, Orange, or Lismore).


Equal Opportunity

GHD is an equal opportunity employer, and we want everyone to be able to fully participate in our recruitment process. We value a diverse workforce and an inclusive culture. We encourage applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and people of all identities.
