An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced engineer to join a major NSW state government transport infrastructure program, supporting the set-up of tunnel asset data and maintenance plans in SAP S/4HANA.

• Apply WHS and environmental management procedures across projects

• Four-year engineering degree (Civil, Electrical or related) from an Australian university, or recognised overseas equivalent
• Experience using and developing Computerised Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS) — essential
• Experience with SAP (S/4HANA preferred) strongly desired
• Strong data handling skills — comfortable manipulating and structuring asset data sets
• Knowledge of materials, equipment and techniques used in road, bridge and traffic infrastructure
• Current, valid Australian driver's licence

Contract Details

• Hours: Up to 8 hours/day, 40 hours/week (excl. breaks) — no overtime paid; less than 6 hours worked is treated as a half day
• Notice period: 1 week
• Rate: $800–$1,000 per day (excl. super), dependent on experience
