  • Support sequencing, methodology, planning and short-term construction programs
  • Work closely with supervisors, subcontractors, designers and client representatives
  • Track progress, productivity, quality requirements and project documentation
  • Assist with procurement, subcontractor coordination, cost tracking and forecasting where required
  • Drive compliance with safety, environmental, quality and contractual requirements
  • Provide clear updates, practical solutions and proactive issue resolution
What You’ll Bring
  • Degree in Civil, Structural or Construction Engineering
  • Project Engineer or Senior Project Engineer experience on major construction projects
  • Strong structures background across marine, bridge, wharf, port, heavy civil or complex infrastructure works
  • Confidence managing technical interfaces, site engineering and subcontractor coordination
  • Solid understanding of quality systems, safety standards, construction methodology and project controls
  • Ability to work FIFO 2/1 and hit the ground running in a busy site environment
  • Clear communication, strong stakeholder management and sound problem-solving skills
What’s In It For You
  • Circa $75/hr + super, negotiable based on experience
  • FIFO 2/1 roster to Western Australia
  • Flights available from major Australian cities
  • Minimum 3-month contract with potential to extend
  • Work with a Tier 1 contractor on a landmark marine infrastructure project
  • Step into a supported site team with established project systems
