Civil Engineer

About Glenview Construction

Glenview Construction is a growing Western Australian civil contractor delivering civil, concrete and earthworks projects across the mining, infrastructure, energy and industrial sectors.

We work alongside some of Australia’s leading contractors on projects throughout Western Australia, with a strong focus on practical delivery, quality workmanship and building long-term client relationships.

As a growing business with a hands-on team, our people have the opportunity to make a genuine contribution. You won’t simply be one engineer within a large department – you’ll work closely with our project teams and management and gain visibility across the full project lifecycle.

Due to continued growth, we are seeking a motivated Civil Engineer to join our team on an initial 12-month contract, with the potential to extend or develop into a longer-term opportunity.

About the Role

This is a varied role combining Perth office-based work with FIFO/site-based project support across Western Australia.

You’ll be involved in projects from tender and planning through to mobilisation, construction and close-out. Depending on current project requirements, you may spend periods on site supporting delivery before returning to our Perth office to assist with engineering, estimating, procurement and project management.

For someone who enjoys variety and wants to understand how projects are actually won, planned and delivered, this role provides exposure that can be difficult to gain within larger organisations.

• Assist with tendering, estimating and project planning.
• Attend FIFO project sites to support and oversee construction activities.
• Liaise directly with clients, consultants, suppliers and other project stakeholders.
• Assist with variations, progress reporting and project close-out.
• Ensure works are delivered in accordance with applicable safety, quality, environmental and technical requirements.

• A sound understanding of Australian Standards and civil construction practices.
• Strong communication, organisation and problem-solving skills.
• The ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a small project team.

As our projects are delivered across regional Western Australia, there may also be opportunities for eligible visa holders to undertake work in locations that can contribute towards applicable regional or specified work requirements, subject to individual visa conditions and project availability.

What We Offer
