Please apply only if you have relevant experience and are looking to build/continue a long-term career in administration (this is not a project management or junior project management role). Looking for close to home yet where you can build a career not work a job? We are looking a career-focussed administrator, a full time team-player, with experience in the land development sector of the engineering consulting market. STORYTIME You're joining an engineering business with a story, a proud Victorian history, a business that's well-structured and capable of supporting you to build your admin career. When you join this team of 70, you're considered part of the family. In return, we are looking for someone who speaks up pro-actively, who contributes and who gets the job done. THE ROLE We're looking for an Office Administrator to help keep engineering projects on track. Someone quietly confident, organised and who understands how an engineering projects runs. This is an office based role with the odd day from home. It exists because the current human is retiring. As you read, people here are Here To Stay. The culture is focused and respectful, with enough banter to keep things human. These engineers are uber serious about their work, but approachable when it counts. WHY THIS POSITION? Work alongside a friendly, close-knit team (both an admin team and the engineering team) Enjoy meaningful role variety; your work supports real projects which develop communities Be part of something growing (we'll tell you more when we meet) Permanent opportunity with progression available. DAY TO DAY Reporting to the Director and, or Operations Co-ordinator, you'll work with the engineering team to keep projects moving and the business humming. This role blends structure with flexibility: clear tasks, but autonomy in how you approach them. You'll need to be self-sufficient about 85% of the time, but there's always someone to check in with. You'll be comfortable making a call to council, calling a sub-consultant to chase up a plan, taking a new idea back to the Project Director and scheduling a meeting between a party of people who all have full diaries already. You can stay calm under pressure and you enjoy seeing you work contribute to the development of Victoria's residential market.
