Ready for your next move? You’ve cut your teeth, delivered great work, and now you’re itching for that next challenge. This role is your chance to step up in the built environment and be part of a consultancy that’s on the rise, not weighed down by layers of hierarchy and old-school thinking. 2025 is a turning point for small and mid-sized consultancies in South Australia. After a few years of industry shake-ups, new privately owned firms are thriving. This role sits inside one of those teams, meaning you’ll see career development and project variety you simply won’t get in the bigger players. Why you’ll love it here: Real career momentum - room to grow fast as you prove yourself. Projects that matter - high-rise residential, education, healthcare, and commercial. A brand making waves in the built environment, respected, nimble, and going places. The company Think national reach without the corporate maze. Big enough to work on projects that make an impact, small enough to stay agile and people-focused. You’ll be backed by smart, supportive engineers who will mentor you, while giving you freedom to try things, shape your path, and make your mark. The role Day-to-day, you’ll be designing concrete and steel structures, supporting seniors, and gradually stepping into client engagement and project coordination. You’ll learn lots, stretch your skills, and be trusted with real responsibility sooner than you’d expect elsewhere. What you’ll bring: 2–4 years’ structural engineering experience (ideally in Adelaide). Progress toward (or interest in) NER and RBP accreditation. Solid technical foundation with an appetite to learn and step up. A collaborative, curious, forward-looking mindset.
