What they need
�� PROJECT ENGINEER - WATER & WASTEWATER | SOUTH BRISBANE
Available now? We're looking for a gun-for-hire Project Engineer to hit the ground running.
�� Southside Brisbane
�� Start: 28 September 2026
⏱️ Approx. 8 weeks
�� Hourly rate | PAYG or Pty Ltd
�� Weekly pay
We're looking for an experienced Project Engineer to provide immediate engineering support on a bespoke Utilities Upgrade project in a live brownfield environment.
This is not a role for someone who needs weeks to find their feet. We need someone who can walk onto site, understand what's happening, get stuck in and provide practical engineering support from day one.
What you'll be working on
- Sewer mains
- Pump stations
- Rising mains
- Brownfield utilities infrastructure
- Day-to-day project engineering and construction support
What we're looking for
You'll ideally have:
- 5+ years post-graduate engineering experience
- Strong Water & Wastewater project experience
- Proven experience working in a brownfield environment
- Experience with sewer, pump station and rising main projects
- Previous experience with a Tier 2 or Tier 3 contractor
- Experience working for contractors who self-perform their works
- Strong construction and delivery knowledge
- The ability to operate autonomously and make things happen
- A practical, hands-on approach rather than being purely office-based
Why this role?
This is a genuine short-term "gun for hire" opportunity for an experienced Project Engineer who wants to come in, add value and get the job done.
You'll report directly to the Project Manager, who is working across multiple projects, so initiative, autonomy and the ability to hit the ground running are critical.
If you're between projects, coming off a project shortly, or simply looking for an 8-week assignment with weekly pay, we'd like to speak with you.
Please call Rory on [0428 026 703](tel:0428 026 703) or email [email protected]
