Want to bring ideas to life? You’re in the right place.  

Aurecon is a leading design, engineering and advisory business. We recognise that the decisions being made right now will determine the future of everything – from local communities to the sustainability of our clients’ global businesses.  

Our Engagement and Change Advisory practice works with clients across a range of sectors to solve complex challenges through industry-leading stakeholder engagement, strategic communications, transformation and change management services.  

How will your ideas contribute to shaping what’s next?  

As a leader in our Engagement and Change Advisory team, you’ll be a trusted partner to a diverse range of government and private infrastructure organisations, delving deep into their challenges to co-create solutions that help shape the future. You’ll communicate the value of a wide range of critical infrastructure projects, connect with diverse stakeholder groups and support the change that underpins the success of Australia’s infrastructure projects and organisations – from water and transport, through to energy, resources and defence. 

Here are the key things you’ll do:  

  • Build strong client and stakeholder relationships across public and private organisations in the infrastructure sector, including transport, utilities, water, housing and public buildings, and the environment
  • Contribute to business development and proposals to grow our offering in the market, with a particular focus on the infrastructure sector in SA
  • Develop and implement communications, stakeholder engagement and transformation strategies
  • Mentor and support colleagues, fostering a high-performing, collaborative team
  • Build our capability as a team and broader Engagement & Change Advisory business, including developing and contributing to new methodologies, approaches and capability in the areas of change and engagement

What are we looking for from you?  

Alongside your industry experience in similar management consulting, strategic communications and engagement, research, or equivalent roles, you’ll also have:  

  • Proven experience across the different phases of a project’s life cycle, ideally complex or major infrastructure related, but not essential.
  • Experience working in the infrastructure sector or with organisations that play a role in planning, delivering or overseeing public and private infrastructure (including transport, energy, water, public infrastructure such as health and education, utilities, resources, defence, and relevant public policy agencies with responsibility in these areas)
  • Strong presentation skills and confident delivery in front of clients, senior Executives and community stakeholders. 
  • A demonstrated ability to plan and execute strategic business development and foster client and stakeholder relationships.  
  • Experience leading, growing and developing a team to embed a high-performance culture. 
  • Relevant tertiary education that demonstrates an ability with written and verbal communication, and a commitment to a relevant discipline in business, management, communications, psychology, science, law or other relevant field.
