Chartered status (CPEng) preferred but not essential.
A relevant tertiary qualification in Civil Engineering.
What’s in it for me?
You will be part of a team that is large enough that you will have access to local industry leading experts and world leading expertise. And yet small enough that you will have plenty of opportunities for you to stand out. This is a brilliant opportunity to take your career to the next level.
