Senior Structural Engineer

• Lead the design on some of Sydney’s most high-profile residential, education, data centre, and healthcare projects.
• Technical Focus: Leave the heavy client management and business development behind - focus on what you love doing best.
• Fast-Track to Associate: Step into a structured coaching and mentorship program designed to build you into a well-rounded consultant.

The Opportunity

Our client, a international consultancy, have a new opening in their Sydney office to find a technically confident Senior Structural Engineer (or a capable Engineer on the cusp of making the step up).

If you have 5 to 8 years of design experience and  enjoy the challenge of complex structural design but aren't ready to trade your software for spreadsheets and client entertainment, this is your sweet spot.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Taking the Lead Design Role on major structural packages across large-scale residential, schools, data centres, and health sectors.

• Collaborating Closely with Associates, structural drafters, and multidisciplinary teams to ensure flawless project coordination.
• Receiving Direct Mentorship and coaching from respected industry leaders to round out your consulting skills for a future Associate role.
• Utilising Advanced Software daily, serving as a technical anchor for the team.

What You’ll Bring

• 5-8 years of Structural engineering design experience, specifically within the Australian buildings sector.
• Advanced technical proficiency in industry-standard software - confident daily use of ETABS, RAM Concept, and RAPT is essential.
• Exceptional communication skills with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts and collaborate effectively.
• An ambitious, growth-oriented mindset - you are technically strong but eager to be guided and coached into a well-rounded consultant.

Why You’ll Love It Here

• Exciting Project Pipeline: Work on highly diverse, complex sectors (including booming markets like data centres and healthcare).
• Culture of Excellence: Join one of Sydney's largest, most reputable, and down-to-earth structural teams where people genuinely enjoy collaborating.
• Uncapped Career Progression: Benefit from a tailored, structured development plan with full financial and mentoring support toward achieving Chartership (CPEng).
• Modern Flexibility: True flexible work options that support a genuine work-life balance.
• Excellent Salary & Benefits Program
